    ..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!

  • Nobuyuki Taguchi

    I’d admired these but didn’t register they were film. They’re stunning.

    Yea, aren't they.
    I actually found them google image searching for "fuji acros 100".
    Honestly I don't care neither for the fashion element nor the tilt-shifty focus that's going on, but the tones are so gorgeous it makes me want to lick the screen.
    It's this one you find via the image search, it's basically the image that made me settle on using acros only for the next months.
    Oh, wait, actually now I'm debating whether I shouldn't go for Adox CMS II which seems to deliver quite nicely as well (check this - shot on 35mm)...
