Film at the beach

When I was at the beach I shot a roll of Ektar 100 film.

The digital pics I took but the film ones are something special.

The color and lighting are so amazing.

It's not as fast and convenient as digital but getting the film developed after I get home stretches the vacation out a little longer.

Right back at the beach.

  1. Curious where you get your film developed in Rochester. I had bad luck with one place and am looking for a trusted store. thank you

  2. Jess - I took it to Scotts. Scans were on the dark side, but better dark than blown out. A little lightening on the levels in Photoshop worked wonders.

  3. There's nothing like film, but the demise of kodachrome leaves a big hole.

  4. Have you heard of Film Is Not Dead? I recently did a workshop here in Australia with Jonathan Canlas who runs the workshop and it was fantastic! Changed the way I approach photography completely. AND he shoots primarily Kodak film too!
    I shot my first roll of Ektar in my hasselblad not long ago. It's a great film and I hope to get some more soon.
    LOVE that you still shoot film occasionally :)
