(yes I know I have picked the worst season to start shooting film again)
There's no worst season to shoot film! Autumn is beautiful and Winter is bleak. Tell the story
HarvGorst-
There's no worst season to shoot film!
Yes, you are absolutely right, it's no excuse.
There's only so much light though, alas maybe not the best time of year to settle on shooting iso 100 film, but hey.Winter is bleak. Tell the story
I do have some stories from past Berlin winters, as a photographer and also as a cyclist, but I doubt you do want to hear them

..unfortunately I don't have anything to show from the last months, have been very occupied with other things, and the only film stuff I've been shooting were two weddings (can't show you) and some drunk shenanigans (won't show you).
BUT I did finish some rolls during the last weeks, and I'm very motivated to shoot a lot in the coming weeks (yes I know I have picked the worst season to start shooting film again), also will meet a friend tomorrow who's digging out his old Jobo tanks for me, and will try to make it to Impex later this day to aquire some Fuji Acros, my new b&w film of choice. Yea, given the light this time of year this might be optimistic, alas they stopped making the 400 & 1600 iso variants 3-4 years ago (fuckers!), and I really like to shoot this emulsion (this was largely influenced by searching for portraits shot on different b&w film material, then stumbling upon the work of Nobuyuki Taguchi - whom I haven't had heard of before, and his analog studio portraits pretty much blew me away).
Prepare for a lot of DIY development / black and white film shooting questions in the coming days!
