Roll 52. Take a moment and soak it in, this one is special. I finish this 52 Roll Project with my trusty Nikon FM2 and a roll of Ilford HP5 Plus 400. The FM2 is the whole reason that I started the project in the first place. I thought I would use most…
The Nikon FM2 and I went exploring to a neighborhood park by my office with another roll of Kodak Elite Chrome 35mm slide film. I don’t know why I have never been by this hidden little spot but it is a very nice lunch time getaway with a trail and little bridges. And,…
This photo adventure has been brought to you by the Nikon FM2 with a roll of Kodak Elite Chrome 100 slide film. When the scans came back from the developer, I thought they were off and then I remembered the colors are different on slide film. Enjoy. Welcome to Fallon, Nevada. …
As I get closer to that #52 goal, I’m getting more anxious about completing the project. The delay between shooting, processing and blogging has been a little bit of a drag for me so I feel like I’m constantly running behind schedule. No worries, I’m almost there — roll 48! Woo hoo.…
I hit the road the other day with the Yashica Mat EM and a roll of Kodak Portra 120. Nothing in particular struck me to photograph so I made a pitstop at a small park that has a even smaller but well-stocked trout pond. I thought I might get a few…
I always have to remind myself that failure is part of growing … and with film comes a lot of failure. Here’s a full roll of growth and learning for ya from some experiments with the Bolsey Model C. First up, it appears like I was taking a selfie. But, no, that’s me…
The Bolsey Model C and went on a special trek back in November with a roll of Fujifilm 400, 35mm. This particular camera belonged to an extended family member’s father who was a Korean War Veteran. Mr. Simms is buried at the Nevada Veteran’s Cemetery in Fernley, NV. At the time, Veteran’s…
A while back, I visited Idlewild Park here in Reno and didn’t have very good luck with the camera that I chose. This time, I used the EXA with some Fuji 100. If you wanna catch up, here’s the old post. If not, you can enjoy the trees changing colors and notice how low…
I’m a sucker for a good neighborhood park. And, it makes for an easy way to explore with my family, check out some fun little, hidden spots and, of course, burn through a good roll of film. I headed out with the Bolsey Model C and a roll of Fuji 400 35mm to revisit…
A new camera for the project: The Bolsey Model C. This is a nice little TLR that runs 35mm and is from the 1950s. The camera is a little special because an extended family member gave to me because he knows of my love for all things film. The camera…
There has been a song playing on the radio lately called “Drive-In Movies” by Ray Lamontange that is continually stuck in my head. And, it is making me want to visit the drive-in here in town. I haven’t been there in decades but I would like to go again. My husband differs…
The EXA went hiking with me again. I bought a new strap for it and, now, it is so much more comfortable to tote around all day. Watch out, folks, I armed and dangerous now! Again, I shot on Kodak Ektar 100. And, if you saw my last hiking post, you’ll…
