@@BadFlashes yeah, I really loved the Ektachrome at night videos! Inspired me to go hog-wild with Ektachrome during the height of covid in 2021-22. Not shot night photos in ages myself either
We had a giant hat in Raleigh NC years ago but they took it down as well..! The shot at 7:50 was indeed a sick shot. Love the reflection on the cars from the sign.
I've been on a night photography spree here mostly in the Bay Area. The timing of this video could not be better. Watching this also makes me wish there was 500T available for medium format, I like how the remjet tames the halation for neon signs while still making them pop but those portra shots are still banging.
Love the results from that roll of Portra 100T film 🔥 What tripod and L bracket are you using? I recently got a Pentax 67 as well so I’m in the market for a tripod sturdy enough to handle the weight of the camera.
This is great Caleb, this is exactly the kind of thing I would do. I get weirdly nostalgic about things sometimes too...um..not that you're weird or anything...Hey great shots! 😃
Hey great video. Not that it matters but there is one of those signs in the Neon Museum in Tucson. With the relays exposed showing how the lights blink.
Last year my girlfriend and I went to LA and I wanted to get a night shot of the Bob's big boy sign in toluca lake I popped off a couple of shots going in, and when we came out the sign was off. I went in and asked why and the manager said theynturn it off when it rains Luckily I got to shoot norms and pinks and chili johns so it wasn't a total bust. Good for you getting the pictures while you could and they all look great
Spider-Man actually came out in 2002- if memory serves, it was supposed to come out in 2001, but you know, the whole 9/11 thing happened and they had to do some twin tower removing 😬
This aerochrome film I got here was first purchased by your great-granddaddy. It was bought during the First World War in a little general store in Knoxville, Tennessee. It was bought by private Doughboy Ernie Coolidge the day he set sail for Paris. It was your great-granddaddy’s war film, made by one of the first companies to experiment with color infrared photography. You see, up until then, people just took black-and-white photos. Your great-granddaddy used that aerochrome film to document every day he was in the war. Then when he had done his duty, he went home to your great-grandmother, took the developed photos, and put them in an ol’ coffee can. And in that can they stayed ‘til your grandfather, Dane Coolidge, was called upon by his country to go overseas and fight the Germans once again. This time they called it World War Two. Your great-granddaddy gave some of those photos to your granddad for good luck, reminding him of the history they carried. Unfortunately, Dane’s luck wasn’t as good as his old man’s. Your granddad was a Marine and he was killed with all the other Marines at the Battle of Wake Island. Your granddad was facing death and he knew it. None of those boys had any illusions about ever leaving that island alive. So three days before the Japanese took the island, your 22-year-old grandfather asked a gunner on an Air Force transport named Winocki, a man he had never met before in his life, to deliver to his infant son, who he had never seen in the flesh, the aerochrome negatives. Three days later, your grandfather was dead. But Winocki kept his word. After the war was over, he paid a visit to your grandmother, delivering to your infant father, the precious aerochrome negatives, a piece of his Dad’s legacy. This aerochrome film. This film was with your Daddy when he was shot down over Hanoi. He was captured and put in a Vietnamese prison camp. Now he knew if the gooks ever saw the film, it’d be confiscated. The way your Daddy looked at it, that film was your birthright. And he’d be damned if any slopeheads were gonna put their greasy yella hands on his boy’s birthright. So he hid it in the one place he knew he could hide somethin’. His ass. Five long years, he kept that aerochrome film up his ass. Then when he died of dysentery, he gave me the negatives. I hid that uncomfortable hunk of film up my ass for two years. Then, after seven years, I was sent home to my family. And now, little man, I give the aerochrome film to you.
Between the stationary and moving valet car I’m going to give my humble opinion that the stationary one squeaks ahead. The red reflection with the darker body of the car has more contrast where the moving reflection lacks. I am conflicted that the movement definitely adds to the shot, but I focus more on what the car is reflecting rather than me personally getting pulled down towards the cars movement. Both are killer. Otherwise just write it off as a diptych ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ P.s. don’t forget to ring the bell 🔔
Hey Caleb, super cool video man ! Tell me … were you on infinity ♾️ for most shots ? Just curious 🧐 Keep on shooting on ! Tommy from across the pond in England…. Peace ✌️
Are they stupid? are they in chapter 11? why on earth would they close down their very first restaurant? Regardless, great images. I think I like the moving car better, it's almost makes the outline of a classic sports car.
I can’t believe I sat through the longest Arby’s commercial
and now you want the meats lol
You absolutely nailed the compositions! The B&W shots will preserve the nostalgia of the location for centuries to come.
Oh thanks 😊
Definitely partial to those
Love that Prince Street Pizza decided to keep the sign regardless of Arbys leaving. Great shots dude!
🥰🥰🥰🥰
@@BadFlashes Used to live around the block from this location so this brought back some great memories!
been soooo long since I've seen a night photography video from you or Jason! So glad to see this!
oh wow .... that is true!
@@BadFlashes yeah, I really loved the Ektachrome at night videos! Inspired me to go hog-wild with Ektachrome during the height of covid in 2021-22. Not shot night photos in ages myself either
What app did you use on your phone to determine what settings to use before taking the shot on your camera?
Lumu
I haven't done any night photography in soo long! 7:54 looks sick!
Gotta get out and do it!!!!!!
Don't think I've been this early to a Bad Flashes video before! Hell yeah lol
Good morning sunshine. ☀️
Went through three rolls for the Arby's sign 🥲🫡
🐦🔥🐦🔥🐦🔥
video slaps almost as much and the pentax mirror xd
😜😜😜😜😜😝
Quite a few Roast Beef Bangers of the Arby's kind! Love new Bad Flashes content.
yayyyyy so glad
We had a giant hat in Raleigh NC years ago but they took it down as well..!
The shot at 7:50 was indeed a sick shot. Love the reflection on the cars from the sign.
The hats are so dope
The old versions of Portra are goated, especially Ultra Color. Loved the 100T vibes

Watching this also makes me wish there was 500T available for medium format, I like how the remjet tames the halation for neon signs while still making them pop but those portra shots are still banging.
nice... some eBay sellers do actually spool up some 500t in MF
The one at 7:45 definitely!
🙌🏼✨🥳
Hey Caleb! Love your videos. Would love to see your whole scanning process because I am struggling with it a little.
How do you scan? Have you checked out my scanning video set up that I did a few years ago
Love the results from that roll of Portra 100T film 🔥
What tripod and L bracket are you using? I recently got a Pentax 67 as well so I’m in the market for a tripod sturdy enough to handle the weight of the camera.
It is like 15 off of Amazon just pick the simplest one I’d say and the tripod I’ve been using is a Benro something. lol
This is great Caleb, this is exactly the kind of thing I would do. I get weirdly nostalgic about things sometimes too...um..not that you're weird or anything...Hey great shots! 😃
Hahahaha
Thanks 😊
Hey great video. Not that it matters but there is one of those signs in the Neon Museum in Tucson. With the relays exposed showing how the lights blink.
hawt damn that's sick
Damn dude I hate to see beautiful neon signs like that disappear
hopefully they don't make it go bye bye
This is a good video - thank you for making it
My pleasure! 😇
I would have been tempted to shoot this subject on Cinestill 50D.
oh nice... next time maybe lol
Those two photos where one has the car being parked by the valet work well together I think. Its like a 2 frame time lapse.
Nice!!!! One for the lapse 🎞️
@Bad Flashes I like the one with the valet’s movement. The stationary one is good, but it’s not as unique as the valet one. Yes, I enjoyed the video
Thanks 😊
6 different things around me all went "UHH_HUH" at 2:22
AHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH
Plus X is the jam! Bring that s@&$ back Kodak!
RIGHT!

Siri is soooooo smart, she knew NOT to answer your stupid question.
Hahahahhaha
You asked so, I prefer the images with the light trails. Nothing wrong with the others, just likes me some light trails.
love to hear it :)
really nice
Thanks! 😄
Oh wow! I always forgot to go there and pass it all the time on way so Norm’a block over from Freestyle. I will miss Arby’s
I know ... a temping sign
If you're jonesing for more Neon Arby's, we still have a cowboy hat sign in Alexandria, Virginia! RIP to the one in California.
They are the best right now!??
@@BadFlashes yeah they light it up at night and everything!
Spider-Man actually came out in 2002- if memory serves, it was supposed to come out in 2001, but you know, the whole 9/11 thing happened and they had to do some twin tower removing 😬

Thank you! Cheers!
Hey Caleb, super cool video man !
Tell me … were you on infinity ♾️ for most shots ? Just curious 🧐
Keep on shooting on !
Tommy from across the pond in England….
Peace ✌️
I can’t recall if I was..l Focused all the Images separate tho
I took some test shots of that sign but sadly never got to go back and actually shoot it fully before i moved. 😥
Oh noooooooooo
I’ll share with you
Funny enough my local Arby's still has their original sign
that's hawt
Great stuff my man!
Glad you enjoyed it!
@@BadFlashes Always. You never let me down.
11:54 but did you record a negative reaction in case of a failure?)
I will never tell!
Rest in Meats Arby's
Hahahahahahahahahaha love that
Someone get this guy a Beef n cheddar.
RIGHT MEOW!
Holding on for some Bob Seger
I don’t have that kind of money 💰
Hahaha
ROTATING BACK, DUH. RBs. Their famous 67 meats.
FUCK ... such a great joke!
@@BadFlashes 😂
James Earl Jones recently died. He was the voice behind "We have the meats"
Rip James !!!
If any consolation, it wasn't "real" roast beef.
Hahahaha 😭
My guts are gurgling just looking at that hat… #ripMEATSWEATS
hahsahahahahha
when the photos are so tasty they give you the meat sweats 🥵
Yes they do ... you know
Are they stupid? are they in chapter 11? why on earth would they close down their very first restaurant?
Regardless, great images. I think I like the moving car better, it's almost makes the outline of a classic sports car.
I don't think this is there very very first locations but has been there a long ass time lol
Bro, aren’t you afraid hanging out that side of Sunset at night with all your gear?
yes .... I was
Mmm, roast beef
✨
Its like Chris Pratt and Will Ferrell had a baby...
That’s the highest compliment anyone has ever given me
rest in pastrami papa arby
😝
That might be my 160VC and NC I sent you! If it is glad to see you get some use out of it!
That could also be the truth :)
It seems like every business is pulling out of California. Bad management, and it's sad. History of photos will be all that's left soon.
Yeah, it’s kind of crazy huh?
