Looking at textures on film: I love how the grain adds a natural depth with the clouds, but locks the building's paneling into an almost 2-dimensional feel, even with its shadow.

Been working on getting a good waterline cityscape of Portland, I think the view is right, I just might need a different lens for it...

Looks like I'm on an automotive kick still... I used to live in the same neighborhood as this little MGB.
The owner must have loved to drive, never saw it clean for more than 36 hrs.

A bit more #automotivephotography, there was something about seeing this framing in the wild that screamed "poster for an American tragedy" to me.

Some of the Porsches I've been obsessed with for a long-term "design-study" I've been working on.

This is when I get a little jealous of digital shooters… one day I’ll get a digital body and become a master of the zen craft of repeated exposures and fine tuning patience. For now? I’ll stick with my cars and landscapes.

Incredible work 🙌🏼🙌🏼🙌🏼

Another one from a little while back - think maybe even my first proper "Californication" frame.
Anyone in the LA area got a good, photog-friendly skate park?

One from deep in the archives. The summer I went back to #filmphotography, now that I'm thinking about it?
Certainly not my best work, but definitely not a bad place to start out on a new obsession.

Went up to the Griffith Observatory for some #filmphotography, and got an amazing shot out over the city. I love high contrast and big shadows, so all these countering lines were a blast.

Some more stuff I've #shotonfilm from a trip to Portugal a couple years ago.

Seeing @parquesdesintra is incredible to begin with, but I was SO lucky that I snagged a low ISO roll of Double8 🎞️ from Film Photography Project for my #Yashica 8-eIII.

Think I need to take it out again... 💸💸💸

It’s been so long since I’ve seen proimage 🎞️ out in the wild.

Anyone else using it outside of portraiture? Would love to get a feel before I stock back up (pun fully intended.)

Killer job with the steady hand.

Do use proimage a lot? I’m
Not seeing it as much outside of portraiture and this is… gorgeous.

#hybridphotographers plz advise!

Trying to bring this project back to analog for its final print form, and I'm trying to get a feel for the realities of from digital (@Fujifilm XT-5). Endgoal is darkroom enlargement.

Inkjet print negative? Laser print to film? Bueler?

Hey #photography peeps, anyone still on/have had any luck on the GuruShots app?

Used to be super active but I need a temp check on if it’s worth it or not for my “new year new socials” thing.

This off an expired roll or one of the rumored fresh ones I’ve been hearing about?

Sharing a frame I'm really proud of!
Sure, I like to lean on a hybrid workflow, but this is one I got right straight out of the camera.
