10000yearsbc

After a suitable morning period for Baron, I decided to make a change, Chuck the Wonder Dog may not be quite convinced. So Ripley and Jonesy moved in. Chuck is like, what the fuck dad?

These are unedited photos opposite the sun setting on the water. The second photo was taken as it began to get darker.

I realized a few frames of film were missing from the scans the lab made on one roll of film I had developed a while ago. So today I tried to figure out what they were. From the negatives it was almost impossible so I did a quick "scan" with my phone and realized they were some nightime shots of a mural here in Tampa. I'll need a few real scans later but I just played with these for a moment after I realized what they were of. Low res and converted to jpeg but I thought they were kind of cool, so...

Not that it was uncommon in the day (the F3 and F5 plus cameras from different makers sometimes had similar function) but the Nikon F4 has a multiple exposure lever that prevents the film from advancing and allows you to shoot multiple exposure shots very easily. These two shots made the most sense visually out of one roll of the same Lomography Berlin Kino 400 film. This time I shot the roll at the default ISO of 400.

These were shot with my Nikon F4s (35mm) using Lomography's Berlin Kino 400 ISO film. I pushed the film to ISO 1600 and shot this around dusk with only ambient light and the lowest shutter speed that I could use and not shake the camera (somewhere around 1/90 to 1/120). I adjusted the black slightly in Lightroom after they were developed and scanned. Not bad for experimenting with a camera that was designed in 1988 and in production for about 9 years. I've had newer 35mm cameras (lost to the perils of moving too many times over the years) but honestly I have to say I prefer this camera. Now just to learn to shoot it again...
