Istanbul Ferry on Film!

I shot these images with my Bronica medium format rangefinder, the RF645 in the ferry to the Princess Islands using some expired Fuji Provia film.  Much more blues, cyans, and magentas then with the digital, and the Bronica lens is not as "magical" as the Leica 50 Summicron, but I like these just as much, only in a different manner. A good reason to carry more then one camera, don't you think?

Lake Wheeler + Bronica RF645 + Fuji Velvia!

I used Fuji Velvia for these. Fuji Velvia was the gold standard for slide film for a number of years. On a bright day like today, it is also very good for keeping the shutter speeds down!

Tucker + Bronica

These are with Tucker and my Bronica RF645 and Fuji Acros Film. The Fuji is one of my favorite black and white films. I hope you can see why!

More JoCo!

I took my Bronica RF645 a few weeks ago, and decided to shoot in Smithfield. I found an old roll of Ilford SFX in my fridge, which I shot without a red filter, and shot some of my favorite subjects, this time in black and white. I also shot a few in my yard before I left of the remnants of this year's peach crop. Not a bad year for my peaches; I got to eat a few and share a few, and they were delicious!

Slide film at Mordecai

A year ago or more, I went to the Mordecai House with my friend Kenyatta. We shot a mixture of Digital, Holga (Black and White) and a roll of slide film (Kodak E100VS)with my Bronica RF645. The Holga images did not come out (my fault; sorry Kenyatta!)These images are the ones made with the Bronica, a medium format, rangefinder, film camera and it's 65mm F4 lens. The exposed film kinda sat in my fridge for a year or so until I got around to getting it processed. I took it to JW Photo Labs for processing and scanning. They do a really good job and for a reasonable price, you end up with a low resolution scan suitable for reviewing, and if you want to make a big print or something, they will be glad to make you a higher resolution scan as well (for an additional fee, it is a business you know)!

Other images I took with the Bronica the same day I was at Lake Crabtree are at my other blog, Visual Greed.
