Good god I LOVE film

Just got my film developed from the two rolls I shot at the Japanese Classic Show and Shine. The Fujifilm Superia 200ISO came out pretty good, but not as good as I had hoped. It definitely has a lot less grain compared to the Fujichrome Provia 400X that I was using previously, and the colors a bit more normal... Somehow though I think the 400 had a much smoother clarity. It's good quality slide film so straight away its better quality than the basic 200ISO that I am currently using, but me being impatience and tightarsed I just get it cross processed.

I really want to be getting photos of this sort of quality and color:

I think I might look into getting a professional series film from Fujifilm and see how that goes next, something around 160-200ISO for minimal grain but so I can still get those beautiful colors I'm looking for.

For now, here's a photo of Zak D's SR20 Volvo from Streetkarnage

Nara - 6月21日 2011

 

If you ever get anywhere near Kyoto a place you have to see is Nara. This place is absolutely packed full of deer that bow to you, its amazing! The parks in Nara are absolutely stunning to just have a quiet stroll through.

 

 

Just a few more film shots to add from my street photography a few weeks back through Surfers Paradise. Not as many great shots came out of this roll as I had hoped but that's part of the fun with film I think.

Just a quick tease for Tess and Andy's wedding that Matthew Breen and I shot in Noosa this weekend.

Yesterday afternoon I had a bit of a play around with my new studio lights which I was given from Matthew Breen. I love seeing studio lighting out of studio surroundings so tried a few different things to give a few different feelings from the shots. 

Film Friday - I got my latest roll of Slide film developed today and found some great photos on it that I can't wait to share with you all!

Here are two favorites that I picked out quickly. This first shot was using Nathan's new 20mm f/2.8 which is such an amazing lens.
