Taken in Pula, Croatia on some out of date Kodachrome

Thanks for the comments. I will try the film with Rodinal but after a quick google came across more than a few comments which suggested that it was not an ideal combo with this particular film due to excessive grain. I wanted to make sure that my first use of the film wasn't beset by any...

I like the look of the Efke films and, as they are produced not so far away from here they are the cheapest available locally. But, I've become really frustrated their extreme curliness - in both dimensions. This means that getting them into the film holder for scanning can be a real bother...

That's what I'm thinking. These things seem able to put out a fair degree of light and they stay cool.

OK this is more of an idea than an actual "how to" I noticed these things Litepad on the strobist website and I immediately thought - "ohh, could you use this as a lightsource behind film for scanning". If you could then any flatbed scanner could scan film - even up 24" x 24" provided you...

Thanks I like 5 too and 6. No 4 was her couting the number of photos I taken so that we could finished and go do something else - "c'mon DAAAAD"! Of course above I should have said that it is NOT very easy to work with a highly mobile child. I'd love to hear the secret of how to get...

After dropping my camera I wanted to make sure it was all ok so decided to get some indoor shots (the rain outside was torrential) and grabbed the one daughter left in the house. I promised her we'd shoot just ten shots - you can see her reactions below - before we would sit and watch some film...

I haven't even seen the sea for months. Still hopefully that will change and I'll be having regular dips in the Adriatic as Croatia is just a few hours drive away.

All very nice although I think no 4 is weakest of the set. Have to say that the waters look so good that I have to wonder why you weren't under it rather than above it ;)

I can imagine people looking at these and thinking - er yeah, and...... Of course I should have pointed out that these are all shot on film not digital and developed by my own fair hands. The day was foggy, very overcast and with snow on the ground - all the factors required to make...

11. 12. 13. 14. 15. 16. 17. 18. Let me know what you think.

Tricky day shooting given the conditions. But, here are some B&W pics to go with the few colour one I posted last weekend. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.

Well the Crown Graphic arrived yesterday and it's luuurvely. Now just waiting for film holders and then I can go buy some film. Tum ti tum....

Thanks Gary, WRT the sunsets - the contrast was already tightened up in post but any further work created a horid halo around the sun. I might give it another go. As you can see it was quite foggy which has resulted in a fair bit of detail being lost but has given the photos a quite...

I Spent the whole day today wandering around Kalemegdan Fortress in Belgrade shooting both Digital and Film. I've a roll of folm hanging and a couple waiting for development but here are a few from the Digital Camera. Let me know what you think: 1. 2. 3. 4. 5...
