3 years it took..

OM-1, 50mm 1.4, Neopan Acros 100

I bought 5 rolls of film several years ago, I'd just recently finished my third roll - and I could not hold out any longer, so decided to get them developed.

Just a smaller selection.. to be honest I'm not feeling excited to shoot any more film.

Favourites for me are 3,4 and the very last one :beer:

... and you can always send your film stuff to me if you’re tired of it

Probably a good thing TBH Dan. There's this new website that lets you search for all sorts of expensive crap very easily. It'd be bad for your wallet for sure.

I quite like the images. Very "documenting my life". Very much like the moody mirror selfie

Dogs, lol. Especially with manual focus at wide apertures.

Here's hoping you don't go back to digital and feel as though it's soul-less, over-perfect, hyper-sharp easy mode

thanks,

maybe when there's something to photograph beside my wife and dogs I might get a bit more interested again.

Don't worry, the Hasselblad X1D II won't be gathering dust

when I finally go outside and do stuff again, maybe i'll give it another go.

2 and 4 plus the first from the second set work for me.

Film is a funny thing, but certainly isn't a universal panacea even though it can be so good in the right place.

Thanks Toni,

Maybe a right time and place will come up again in the future - but it might not win the race vs my digital selection.
