#photography #queer artists #35mm #nightscape #midwest #aesthetic #filmisnotdead #film #vintage #and here begin the experiments with night photography on film #honestly I'm relatively happy with how well these turned out #given it looks like I was using a 1/8 second shutter speed and handheld shooting in the cold #so all of this is probably motion blur rather than being out of focus #also not fully sure how to tag this given they're just not great

Inter-roll Intermission

Would you look at that, we’re finally on my most recent roll of scanned film!

This upcoming one began just before the pandemic and involved experimentation with more challenging lighting - particularly night scenes.  I also scanned this roll myself, as I did with the last one, though I think there were slightly more scanning artifacts this time despite my best efforts.

In a more positive change, I began recording data on photos taken much more properly to ensure I have dates and settings (the latter for diagnosis of potential problems), something that the last roll was sorely missing.  I had previously metered all shots by taking comparable shots on my T3i, giving me metadata for these posts and diagnostics, but it also made shooting film a very involved process.  Before the last roll of film, I got batteries to finally use the through-the-lens metering system of the FT-QL, which streamlined my setup substantially - but perhaps a little too much, as I didn’t think to replace my system for getting metadata.  After realizing my mistakes on this past roll, I’ve taken to keeping a shot record on my phone.

Now, I say this is my most recent roll of scanned film, which is true... at the moment.  However, I just sent off four rolls of film for processing at The Darkroom (due to using one roll of expired C-41 slide film that was in a newly-acquired Nikon/Nikkormat FT2), which total over 100 photos.  So, that’ll be fun to go through.  This batch includes two 36-shot rolls taken at EAA Airventure this past summer, which is going to be an interesting experiment in action photography on film.  Don’t be shocked if many of those don’t turn out, manually focusing on high-speed flybys is a challenge for someone used to landscape photography.
