I love to shoot film as well as digital, there's something about the unpredictability of pairing a new camera and an untested film stock that when coupled with the delay in processing and scanning provides a much greater sense of excitement when I finally get my image. As i get around to scanning I'll post a couple of pics. The photos above was taken about a week ago with one of my favourite camera, the Olympus Stylus Epic, an awesome little point and shoot that I rarely leave the house without. On the evening I was using some cheap expired Lucky SHD 100 that I picked up in a lab in Burwood for a couple of dollars a roll. The shot above was taken on Belmore Road in Randwick at night.
The second photo is of CarriageWorks an artistic space and market not far from where I live in Sydney. This batch were scanned using my Epson Perfection V500, imported to Photoshop Elements 6 where minimal adjustment was used. Just cropping and some contrast adjustments. I'm no purist but I am lazy. As you can see from the night shot I tend to handle my negatives a little roughly, there you have it.
