summer on film [nikon f3]


Today is Christmas Eve, and I’m just now getting around to sharing some of the film photos that I took over the summer. I found myself primarily reaching for my film cameras this summer, especially once my Nikon F3 was returned after being CLA’d. The biggest thing I want to work on in the coming year is my film photography workflow. Right now I wait until I have 4-6 rolls of film ready to be sent out, which means those rolls will come back with photos taken months prior. That leads me to this moment: sharing photos from this summer on December 24. In any case, here are some of my favorite shots on film from this summer. These were all taken on my Nikon F3 with my 50mm Nikon Series E lens on a variety of film stocks, but mainly Kodak Gold 200 and Fujicolor Superia 400. Most of these shots are from some hikes that we went on, perusing around town, walks in the park, and an MLB Draft League game in our hometown. 
























I can’t resist photographing lily pads in the summertime.






This batch of film was processed and scanned by Indie Film Lab in Montgomery, AL on a Noritsu HS-1800.

summer vacation [film & digital]

This year, we were lucky enough to have some of my family members visit us over the summer. The main objective during their time here was to visit Hersheypark. I took a couple of cameras with me and I've finally gotten the film developed and scanned, and I'm excited to share those photos with you now. This day really felt like a classic family summer vacation. 


This first wave of photos were shot on film.















Obligatory film photo of a cool car.




Photos from here on are digital.










We stopped at the confectionary after a long, sweaty day and relaxed with some gourmet Hershey desserts.


















This is my favorite photo I shot on this day. I'm slowly becoming more comfortable with the people aspect of street photography and I'm quite proud of this one.


Digital photos shot with a Panasonic 20mm/1.7 II mounted on a Lumix GX85.
