I tend to have to come back to it at least once a month. Shifts the way you look at things and helps me break out of any sort of box I may put myself in. Love the colors as well!
Great photos, especially like the one with the trees framing the street lamp with the steps up to the house behind, and the front on photo of Jeff's tyres, I like that you can see the different textures of the pavement in front reflecting the shop's light differently. I went out recently with a friend to do some night photography, had a similar issue with the built in light meter. At first I thought it was working fine until I realised the needle was moving the same as when the meter was off. My Weston meter wasn't of much use either, fortunately my friend had a light meter app on his phone which was really helpful when neither of my meters could register.
Thank you for the kind words. And yeah I have been surprised to see these light meter apps perform so well, especially for nighttime photography. That's all I've been using for the past 2-3 years now.
Full on side shot of the Town Car for the win. Arborist = trees. Which I am sure you are going to get a bazillion times. Thanks for your video and the effort you took to make it. Btw-thanks to one of your videos I went up to Diablo last weekend. Glad you made the video, I liked the scenery.
Thanks Greg! Arborist, noted! And awesome! That area is amazing. I'm hoping to get a trip in up there again this summer and spend the night in Winthrop which is just past Diablo Lake. Cheers!
Yes! It has been a while for nighttime work. I remember some of your earliest videos on the channel featured great dusk and night photographs. This looks like a great place to visit. Put up the Brae and Alicia pub review and I'll be up there in a minute. (Nick Carver is a wealth of information, too! I've watched every video he has on the channel). Cheers!
Thank you, Bob! I definitely want to continue the nighttime work at least once per month here on the channel. It is a great time. Pub review on the way 😎 And Nick is the best! Have learned a lot from watching his videos as well.
Brea, you got on this one. My old neighborhood when I was younger, and I was waiting for you to come upon a bunch of "youth" at a kegger at one of the houses on Union Street! A panorama kit for your Pentax 67 and some 35mm film would do Jeff's Tires justice.....
Thanks Tod! Certainly had it been a Friday or Saturday night I would have come across a scene like that haha. I actually forgot that I have the 35mm kit for my Pentax 67ii. Waiting for it to get back from the repair shop then I'll have to give it a try! Cheers.
Great video! Question: if the Bronica SA does not have mirror lock up, how are you able to get 8s exposures with out the shake of the mirror opening and closing? is a pretty heavy mirror right?
You'd notice it more in the 1/15th - 2 second shutter range. 8 seconds is typically long enough to avoid rendering the micro jitters into the negative. I haven't had an issue with it!
i think jeff's tires photo looks great with a black sky. especially with those lights. i like the vibe, it's like you walk at night and jeff's tires is the only place that you can find open lol but i agree with you about 6x17
Nice stuff, Brae! You've inspired me to try some night photography. Except I'd need some bodyguards to go with me. Nighttime ain't too safe these days here in Charm City. LOL. Actually, not funny.
Thank you, Gary! And I definitely understand. Seems like it is a consistent theme throughout the US. I find myself avoiding more and more areas these days, especially when shooting alone.
Great video! How did you work out the reciprocity for portra 800? Did you use the same as portra 400? I haven't been able to find info on portra 800s reciprocity since kodak doesn't recommend shooting longer than 1sec
Not sure, I've gotten pretty lucky over the years with not having any issues shooting in neighborhoods like these. I've had a couple police encounters, but nothing serious.
Colors look great, but why are you composing so low? The photo you liked of the Lincoln under the tree and the one you really liked of the house would've looked so much better with the top of the trees in the frame instead negative space at the bottom.
would you shit yourself if someday after taking these night pics, you develop the film, get the scans back and see there was someone watching you through a window or some shit? I always have this thought in the back of my head when I m out at night shooting haha
Peace Brae. Thanks for your update. I love your night work my man. Really appreciate your work. For me, night shots, using the 90mm f/3.5 RB67 Pro SD, when it rains shot on 800T! See you next week.
Nick carver is the master when it comes to panoramic landscapes of old buildings!! Beautiful night shots!! Good to see you back at it!!
Indeed he is! And thank you very much :)
Loved to see you get back into night photography, always enjoyed that the most! Perfect video to end a hard day
Stay safe :)
Thanks Rudolf! Hope you're doing well sir.
as long as ur enjoying the moment, the process .. all about having fun taking lotsa photos. gotta get my proverbial into gear & take my SQ 4 a spin
As soon as I saw the tire shop photo I thought of Nick Carver. Glad I wasn't the only one xD
Thats a VERY Nick Carver scene
Haha yeah that'd be a staple shot for him!
i really love that first photo! looks great
Well thank you!
7:51 totally agree that picture with the house and the colors are awesome! I was surprised how much detail there was in the picture as well! ✌️
Thanks Peter 🤠
Man the colours with those night film photos are just so damn nice 👌 Cold fingers not so much haha Great watch as always 👍
Love the color rendition of long exposures on film. Catching the blue hour just right is always a treat. Cheers guys! :)
Ellensburg is another awesome city at night. Especially the downtown core
I shot there last fall! Was a lovely evening
Lessgoooo, another banger! Love the nighttime videos 🔥
Thank you, Michael!
Vintage Brae back in action
Feels good baby!
Inspiring me to do some more night photography! I haven’t done that in a little while
I tend to have to come back to it at least once a month. Shifts the way you look at things and helps me break out of any sort of box I may put myself in. Love the colors as well!

Which light meter app do you use for night shots?
Sunday Sunday Sunday! ☺️🤘🏽📷✨
6:53 😘👌🏽✨
Cheers brotha! ❤️
Awesome video! Miss Washington! Gig harbor is another cool spot area!
Thanks Marc! I went to GHHS. Downtown is beautiful. Some night shots down there might be pretty cool!
Full on side shot of the Town Car for the win. Arborist = trees. Which I am sure you are going to get a bazillion times. Thanks for your video and the effort you took to make it.

Well thank you for the feedback! I actually am starting to like the 6x6 ratio more as well. A 6x17... Someday!
Haha nick carver. love to see you both in one frame
Haha that'd be a good ol' time right there
Nice stuff, Brae! You've inspired me to try some night photography. Except I'd need some bodyguards to go with me. Nighttime ain't too safe these days here in Charm City. LOL. Actually, not funny.

Yeah I just use Portra 400’s chart! Works every time 👍🏻
get yourself a 35mm hack kit for the bronica to do those panorama shots !!! $20 .... but nice work especially the house with stairs ....
Good call. I have been meaning to try 35mm in the P67 for a while now.
What is the light meter app that you use?
Looks like 'My Lightmeter Pro', but not 100%.
Yep MyLightMeter Pro!
Giving pops some competition on the Broni ay? 👏
Haha trying my best to put up a fight!
Why my film pictures look on my computer better than on my phone?
On my phone the pictures look different, darker.
Each device's display capabilities and settings can greatly alter the look of a video or photo.
How do you do this with no one calling the cops, I can literally be in my front yard and people call the cops bc I’m out at night with my camera
Not sure, I've gotten pretty lucky over the years with not having any issues shooting in neighborhoods like these. I've had a couple police encounters, but nothing serious.
Someone should have told Jeff he didn't need the second apostrophe
lolol
"From the 1900's"

Haha I have definitely thought about this before! Would be a fun little surprise I suppose 😅
same light meter app, seems no need to purchase an expensive spot meter...for now
I have used My Light Meter Pro app for about three years now and have had no reason to buy anything else. It works great.
Ya those are pink flowers bro, not leaves
As I said, I'm no botanist lol
Peace Brae. Thanks for your update. I love your night work my man. Really appreciate your work. For me, night shots, using the 90mm f/3.5 RB67 Pro SD, when it rains shot on 800T! See you next week.
Ooo that sounds like an ideal combo! Thanks for tuning in again, sir. Cheers!
