I held steadfast to my commitment to film the entire summer. Within less than 12 weeks i learn how to shoot manual, develop film, and make my own prints. When I grew tired of using 35MM I shifted my focus to using only polaroids. It was a nice break from lugging around my digital.
When I finally went to New York I believe I have started to get the hang of it all. The manual could be such a burden to be able to capture candid moments.
Here are some of my favorites -
I managed to get around to developing several rolls of a film. What a total disaster. 3 rolls ended up being blank and the rest of the photos were 'eh' at best.
My attempt of taking photos at a show with low-lighting was also a bust. A friend suggested I keep a film diary of what photos I took on each roll to keep track. Good idea but the thought of keeping track of what potential photos I missed out on does not sound appealing. Regardless, I am doing it anyways. Here is one photo from fountain downtown that I seem to enjoy. The experiment has been exhausting but I am digging results.
