FILM PROJECT 2024 – January

Today I am kicking off my Film Project 2024. I can’t even tell you how excited I am to share the images & memories below. Before I do, I wanted to share just a little info and a few thoughts.

Kicking off 2024

Kicking off 2024. It’s already off plan but it’s all good! While I didn’t accomplish all my goals I had for week 1, here’s a preview of one of my personal projects; My 2024 Film Project

Eurobike 2015 – Have bike. Will travel.

It’s been a few weeks and I am finally getting back around to going through my Eurobike images and thoughts. I am not going to write too much about bikes other than share my favorite bike of the show. It’s a looker for sure and represents a trend I suspect you will see for the […]

The film dumping grounds

Recently, my desk at work has become the dumping grounds for film, old cameras and misc old photo gear that no one wants to deal with anymore. Honestly, I don’t mind one bit. In recent months I have been on the receiving end of a really nice old filter set, 35mm film, 12omm film, an […]

Worth waiting for – The forgotten roll of film

Well…..After 4 months I finally developed a roll of film that I started back at the end of February of 2014. When I saw the prints I was once again blown away. Man do I love film. Yeah, these shots below are not 100% sharp, perfectly focused or developed/printed perfectly. Nope. I know folks can […]

My 2012 Film Project – May – Japan

Originally posted on ImagineGnat:
I’m excited to share my May installment of my 2012 film project. I went into May with a great plan. I would bring my film camera to Japan and use it shoot some non work, street and portraits. I rented a 50mm Zeiss 2.0 lens to shoot available light only and…

Getting back to my roots – Fargo, Friends, Coffee & Film

About a month ago, I wrote the following sentence in my Catching Up – Where Have I been post – “I just think it is time to start getting back to the things that are important to me”. The list of things that of what is important to me is fairly short in all honesty. […]

2012 Film Project – 2 months & 3 rides

It seams I have fizzled a bit on my film project. It’s not that I haven’t been thinking about it nor is it because I no longer enjoy film. Nope. Not at all. I just was planning for my trip to California and knowing I was not going to shoot film on that trip, I […]

2012 Film Project – Olympus 35EC

Earlier in the year my friend Rob sent me a box containing 3 old cameras. I’ve written about two of them; the Olympus 35RC and the Canon QL17. This month I am writing about the Olympus 35EC. Of all the cameras he sent me, this one was the most pristine condition and in all honesty, […]

2012 Film Project – My Photography Tool Chest

August marked a change in my film shooting. It seems that rather than forcing myself to shoot or forcing myself to finish a roll of film, I used it when appropriate. When I wanted for what I wanted. I think for me, I am starting to understand just exactly how I want to use film […]

Friday Ride Stoke

That is all. Have a great weekend!

July Film – Two Rides with Ilford HP5

Getting back to my film series today. Excited to share some pics from a new film, at least new to me. In July I shot two rolls of Ilford HP5. I think I am sort of stuck on Kodak Tri-X 400 pushed to 800 so it’s good to try something new. I really liked the […]

2012 Film Project – Ektar 100 in Utah

I am settling back in from my trip up north. As I mentioned yesterday, I have a hard drive issue (It is full!) so I can’t upload my images from up north. I hope to solve that in the next day or so. Thankfully, I had scanned all my July film images prior to this. […]

2012 Film Project – Lessons Learned

I shot more film in July than I have in any other month of 2012. I shot 5 rolls and finished off one that sat in the camera from an earlier month. Why did I shoot more? Well…I am just enjoying it so much. In fact, right now it is pretty much all I want […]

2012 Film Project – July Sneak Peek

I scanned 2 rolls of film today. I’ve got a few more to go. Loving film so much I want to shoot more and more. This month I had 5 rolls! Also learned some things not to do in July. Big mistakes to share next week. So….Just a quick sneak peek today as I am […]
