i really like that youre both critical enough to point out your rejects, but generous enough to share the shots you dont like so you can talk about what doesnt work for you. One of the things we're losing as we move away from the old gatekept world of photography is the knowledge that your strongest editing tool is the trash can. Be ruthless in culling your own work and eventually your keeper ratio will be much much higher.
THE HAUNTING SOUNDTRACK AND SOUND DESIGN OF THAT WHOLE SECTION WAS PERFECT. You are a skilled photographer, but your understanding of other mediums shines through in these videos as well. Well, to those who know where to look
I recently found your channel and spent the last two weeks watching every video like a creepy, desperate UA-cam viewer. Thank you for supporting my habit.
Wow, this really made me nostalgic. I'm English and my older brother lived in Arcata for years so when I was little we used to go there every few years to visit. I went all up and down that coast line when I was a teenager and I'd cycle miles to places like Trinidad. Since he moved out of California I've got no real reason to spend that much money to go so I often wonder if I'll ever see that place again. Anyway, thanks for the memories, and another great video.
I’m really impressed by the soft focus and TMAX combo,. Looks like 1921. Also, love the attention to detail, including the wump sound with each rotation of the lighthouse light.
I had to smile when I saw you and Monica on a road trip. It reminded me of so many roadtrips with my Wife over all those years. We always had a blast wandering the backroads of America. The algorithm is slowly bringing up all your back catalog for me to enjoy. Thanks! That 120mm on the 67 makes an image that looks like it was photographed with a truly vintage rig, like something from the early 20th Century. At first I didn't like it, but on further reflection, I think it's a pretty cool look.
I'd love to see what that soft focus lens would do with Velvia. I imagine a painterly lens with painterly color. A book that might interest you is Painting with Light by John Alton. It's actually about black and white cinematography, but it is inciteful and I have lent it to photographers and painters.
Just discovered your channel and have been binging your content. I love the vibe. The self deprecating humor, the music choices, the locations you go to, the doggo, everything really. I don't ever plan on shooting film, but I'm really all about the way you make your art. I'm inspired!
Love the videos man. Not only do you capture amazing photos (y'know, sometimes) but your story telling keeps me hooked. I became a subscriber probably about 6 months ago now but I get a small dopamine hit whenever that notification pops up for your next release. Keep it up man, your content is a breath of fresh air.
You were up in my hood! You've got a fan in NorCal. Your content is just rad, and your low-key humor, wit, and character carries every story. I rarely leave comments, but just wanted to say I appreciate you.You're making me want to start shooting film again!
This is so sick! I went to school in Humboldt and loved every second of it. Gorgeous area, and really cool film program up there.. Also, the first Taco Bell you show is in my hometown lol.
I had this video playing in the background while I was doing homework and it took me a minute to realize you were shooting aerochrome and you weren't just in Pensylvania in October lol
Thumbs up to Monica... she survives your humor! Cool! I liked your trip video because you just always do some weird stuff....and Monica spelled sequoia.
I just love your sense of humor and fun. And Monica brings a pure joy to your videos. This is great and I also liked your video of your trip to Spain a lot.
The Mendocino coastline is where I'd move tomorrow if I struck it rich. And then struck it rich ten more times. My fav of the bunch was the Fuji Industrial, and I'll be seeing if I can find some as winter-with all its drabby sadness-will be here soon. I also think the shot of the shaded tree on Aerochrome works better because you can feel the form of that tree way more than in the sunlit shot. And that sea stack photo was classic and beautiful. And lastly, thanks for the turn on to Estes-those are beautiful, inspiring works.
Ft. Bragg/Mendocino is one of our favorite areas. Before the coof we tried to get over there 3-4x a year, but that's been whittled down to twice the past two years. Interestingly enough, we usually stay at the Beachcomber or Surf & Sand Lodge because they're dog-friendly. Our dog turns into a puppy again every time his feet hit sand, and he loves to build those "sandcastles" at the end of the day too, lol. I liked your shot of the trees along the bluff overlooking the beach.
I really like the concept of those shot with Tmax and the soft-focusing lens, but a ton of grain would've really supported the look in my opinion maybe changing the Tmax for Tri-X pushed to 800 or 1600. Nonetheless love your videos :)
Thanks for sharing your great photos. I especially liked the photos of those magnificent trees, it makes the trees in my area look like mere twigs. Also nice to see all the different film stock.
Holy smokes! Fern Canyon. I was there in summer of 1980. I had with me 95 rolls of 35mm and 120 film- mostly Kodachrome, Velvia and Ektachrome!! When I travelled the California coast from Oregon to LA!!! Ok. No more comments I promise.
Awesome video. Next time stop by Ferndale and check out the old victorians. If you ever come back. Let me know I'll show you some local hidden locations to shoot.
Really enjoyable episode, thanks. Nice mix of travel and great photography. Here in rainy UK a little Baxter is always appreciated. From The BBC: British Baxter Club.
I’m a big fan of your art history talks, highlighting the artists that inspire you from the medium of painting. I hadn’t heard of Richard Estes before but I’m liking his work a lot. His subjects of mid-century design remind me of modern film photos
My photography style is waaay different than yours but I definitely felt the vibe and related to a lot of your work on this trip. After all my camera gear was stolen digital and film dating from the 70's I was sure I would never shoot film again this was a good argument for second thoughts.
Try developing the LomoChrome Purple in E-6. Don't forget to compensate 2 stops for the cross processing. But if you decide to give the orange filter + C-41 another chance, you're supposed to S curve the scan. I dont remember if it's inverse or just a regular S curve.
I liked the blue tones you got with the Lomo Purple and the orange filter even if you don't! And the massive amounts of Baxter. Also glad to see someone shoot films other than Portra as well. It gets recommended and used so much by Instagram/UA-camrs/the general online photography community, it's being done to death...

Yes I scan very little of the film I develop
Yesssss Ive been wanting another long trip video so I could stop rewatching all the other ones
Ditto
ha. ha. ha. same :(
So im not the only psycho that watched old videos more than once
@@iimjustjordan I watch „2Weeks on the Road“ every 1 or 2 weeks when im high and its such a pleasure
Me too, the long trip videos are the best. Been watching for two weeks straight. The wife thinks i found my new crush
Actually read the title credits this time and found it surprisingly informative
Haha, so did I! Not sure why i felt compelled to but glad I did!
@@daveaneil hahah same!
Same here!
It seems something caught our attention ahah
THE HAUNTING SOUNDTRACK AND SOUND DESIGN OF THAT WHOLE SECTION WAS PERFECT. You are a skilled photographer, but your understanding of other mediums shines through in these videos as well. Well, to those who know where to look
I AGREE!! 22:32 - 24:00 was my favorite part of the video :)
I recently found your channel and spent the last two weeks watching every video like a creepy, desperate UA-cam viewer. Thank you for supporting my habit.
Good chit right? I'm addicted. also
Haha me too
basically living for these at this point
Also, start a Patreon or something- we want to make sure you're getting support to keep doing what you want.
Agreed. I'd sub.
I like that we’re seeing more of Monica, she seems really cool ☺️
Okay, Monica! We got your point
Wow, this really made me nostalgic. I'm English and my older brother lived in Arcata for years so when I was little we used to go there every few years to visit.

23:36 - The flash of the lighthouse in time with the score *chef’s kiss*
Loved that humming sound effect of the lighthouse as the light passes by the camera! Perfection.
A yes. Another video centered around the channel's star, Baxter.
Baxter is the coolest pooch that ever lived. Plus the shots with the 6x7 and that soft lens are insanely good!!!
I had to smile when I saw you and Monica on a road trip. It reminded me of so many roadtrips with my Wife over all those years. We always had a blast wandering the backroads of America.

The diffused black and white photos are the best you've ever done!
You are the only American that knows how to sarcasm like a British person
Baxter will remember these moments vividly
We have been blessed! This is a Baxter filled video.
24:03 one of my favorites you have taken so far. Cheers
Just discovered your channel and have been binging your content. I love the vibe. The self deprecating humor, the music choices, the locations you go to, the doggo, everything really. I don't ever plan on shooting film, but I'm really all about the way you make your art. I'm inspired!
I love this video. A little nostalgic as my family lived in Eureka for generations… until me.
Loved this one! The photo at 24:26 is my favorite. Let’s start a donation box to get Baxter his own human bed
Those soft focus shots were really cool. They fed my inner spooky kid.
the photos that came out of the lighthouse section are amazing and that SpongeBob reference, bro lmao
when you're done with your exams and you can catch up on these awesome long ass videos. Damn what a great feeling
Love aerochrome and tmax shots!! Keep up the great work Jason!
love the spooky noise whenever the lighthouse flashes in the background
The fact that you and Caleb sync your uploads is cute af
Love the videos man. Not only do you capture amazing photos (y'know, sometimes) but your story telling keeps me hooked. I became a subscriber probably about 6 months ago now but I get a small dopamine hit whenever that notification pops up for your next release. Keep it up man, your content is a breath of fresh air.
Those soft focus b/w shots are so satisfying
You were up in my hood! You've got a fan in NorCal. Your content is just rad, and your low-key humor, wit, and character carries every story. I rarely leave comments, but just wanted to say I appreciate you.You're making me want to start shooting film again!
Loved seeing my beautiful hometown on display! I miss the redwoods so much.
Baxter is such a good boy!
those soft focus shots are definitely a vibe!
Wow, those B&W images with the soft focus filter look so ethereal, straight out of a horror flick. Great work.
jason is definitely one of the photographers of all time
This is so sick! I went to school in Humboldt and loved every second of it. Gorgeous area, and really cool film program up there.. Also, the first Taco Bell you show is in my hometown lol.
"You ever take one of those shots that really hits? Me neither..."
Still laughing
I had this video playing in the background while I was doing homework and it took me a minute to realize you were shooting aerochrome and you weren't just in Pensylvania in October lol
Thumbs up to Monica... she survives your humor! Cool! I liked your trip video because you just always do some weird stuff....and Monica spelled sequoia.
I just love your sense of humor and fun. And Monica brings a pure joy to your videos. This is great and I also liked your video of your trip to Spain a lot.
This should be called The Baxter Special. Thank you from the Baxterites out there man.
What a joyful road movie, I think Baxter is a true superstar. Oh, the photography was cool too.
I just got back from a trip to Mendocino and it is just really neat to see what someone else saw and the compositions they got.
30 minutes. Blessed.
This feels like a Baxter highlight reel, and I love it!
This is the best photography channel on UA-cam .. This guy seriously needs to make more videos .. and shoot more fuji industrial ..
This is your best one yet. Keep it up Baxter!
Unicornlandlook is such a vibe. Suits your personality perfectly. And the tmax shots that looked painted are just gorgeous in my opinion.
The Mendocino coastline is where I'd move tomorrow if I struck it rich. And then struck it rich ten more times. My fav of the bunch was the Fuji Industrial, and I'll be seeing if I can find some as winter-with all its drabby sadness-will be here soon.

11:40 Wow! Those shots are beautiful! Dreamy. I love them.
Ft. Bragg/Mendocino is one of our favorite areas.

I liked your shot of the trees along the bluff overlooking the beach.
These Northern California vibes are so nostalgic for me. Great video.
NEW GRAINYDAYS TRIP LETS GOOOO
I really like the concept of those shot with Tmax and the soft-focusing lens, but a ton of grain would've really supported the look in my opinion maybe changing the Tmax for Tri-X pushed to 800 or 1600.
Nonetheless love your videos :)
Loved the neon hum on the sign.
Those Retrochrome blues at 27:52 are amazing as well.
Damn those spooky lighthouse shots are excellent.
this was truly wonderful.
Really liked the timing of lighthouse with the music!
Love the soft focus Pentax mono shots - excellent
Live is good and so is Baxter
More of these, please
Awesome video and pictures! Love the deadpan pictures and the beautiful fine-art narration...
The last retrochrome image of the first roll is really good, the composition works so well, loved this one, thanks
Another fantastic roadtrip! Monica and Baxter are stars. Your explanations of your choices in gear and film stock are super informative.
Hey glad someone has posted about my home it’s beautiful up there
Grainydays and The Lighthouse reference? Superb!!!
Awesome images man, loved 26:41 really beautiful composition.
Fabulous video again. Really enjoy your road trips. Your support team looked they enjoyed thoroughly too. Looking forward to your next video. 🏴👍
Thanks for sharing your great photos. I especially liked the photos of those magnificent trees, it makes the trees in my area look like mere twigs. Also nice to see all the different film stock.
Finally you have got an amazing Leica Lens for your M6. First class. Now you can start over.
Those lighthouse photos slap so hard
Really great stuff! Love many of the shots, especially some of the TMAX and the ultra wide. You even almost made me like Retrochrome.
Arcata train wreck is so good. You’re making me want to take a road trip down and bring my TL 70
Haha the redwood curtain. Northern cal was a pleasure when we went a couple months ago 🥰
Nice to see you take good pictures of all the spots i always go to and take bad pictures of.
So good! And yeah, retrochrome is just amazing
Holy smokes! Fern Canyon. I was there in summer of 1980. I had with me 95 rolls of 35mm and 120 film- mostly Kodachrome, Velvia and Ektachrome!! When I travelled the California coast from Oregon to LA!!! Ok. No more comments I promise.
I feel like Jason is getting closer and closer to moving out to the woods, buying a truffle pig and changing his name to Robin Feld
It's always an instantaneous click when you upload.
Awesome video. Next time stop by Ferndale and check out the old victorians. If you ever come back. Let me know I'll show you some local hidden locations to shoot.
Eureka and Arcata are some of the most beautiful locations in California! Love this vlog!
Really enjoyable episode, thanks. Nice mix of travel and great photography. Here in rainy UK a little Baxter is always appreciated. From The BBC: British Baxter Club.
love these longer form videos.
The Baxter appearances guy is gonna have a blast
28:20 and 28:32 those colours and tones 😍😍

oh my...
The soft focus lens on the Pentax with BW film.
Halloween vibes!!!
AND you had the added bonus of being in a foggy area!
Fantastic. Subbed.
Try developing the LomoChrome Purple in E-6. Don't forget to compensate 2 stops for the cross processing. But if you decide to give the orange filter + C-41 another chance, you're supposed to S curve the scan. I dont remember if it's inverse or just a regular S curve.
Love your images and humor!
Lived in Arcata for 5 years such a beautiful place. Nice shots!
I liked the blue tones you got with the Lomo Purple and the orange filter even if you don't! And the massive amounts of Baxter.
Also glad to see someone shoot films other than Portra as well. It gets recommended and used so much by Instagram/UA-camrs/the general online photography community, it's being done to death...
Those pink leaves made me go ooooooof
Curse you for uploading a video before my 3 hour class starts
What class is it? Is it a long one?
@@da009999 a charcoal drawing class, sitting in the uncomfortable chair makes the 2hr 45min feel like 3…
Baxter watching Bad Friends was the true highlight
One of my favourite videos by you. The shots were just awesome. Well done mate.
those lighthouse photos were wicked
I can't decide which shots are my favorite, the aerochrome or the t max shots are just fkn amazing 🤤
