    I love that shooting with film makes you push past the fear of imperfections and simply try to capture the moment --and then move on. There's no checking to see if it came out right or deleting an image that didn't turn out as you hoped and the only way to improve at your craft is to DO your craft. And I love that you are having fun doing your craft.
    Thank you for the good example 🙏🏻

    I love the photos you got on Portra 800 in the harsh morning light. Sometimes loading the wrong film can still yield great results.

    Off season resorts are so odd, and rarely seen. Makes the Coney Island super interesting. Be an interesting theme for a project

    I just came across your channel. Normally I’d be like “ugh, another kid from Portland”, but WOW! I’m really enjoying your b&w series. It’s so awesome to see young people with a new love for film. I loved half my life in Nevada so I completely feel your love of the desert. Keep doing what you are doing! I can’t wait to see what’s next.

    Love the shots from Coney Island. I live on the Jersey Shore and the vast majority of what I shoot is resort areas in the offseason. There's a magic to these places that's hidden when they're filled with tourists. They're interesting with tourists too, but give me a boardwalk in December and I'm happy. I even put out of zine (first of a planned series) of photos shot down the shore in the offseason.

  • @tedphillips2951
    @tedphillips2951 Рік тому +1

    This was such a lovely video. I've also (almost) exclusively been shooting b&w lately as well, partly inspired by your decision to do so. I just find that I can express myself better when I'm not worrying about color

    I love that Pentax 645 you’re shooting. It’s the perfect blend of auto and manual with easy toggles and it’s the only camera I own that I don’t feel guilty about NOT shooting ( like the Hassy ) because I shoot the Pentax constantly.
    Try the 35mm 3.5. The close focus is about 12 inches to the film plane. It’s my favorite camera! ( shhhh ! )
    You got some VERY nice shots there !!!

    Super fun! Photography plus road trips is such a combination. I really love the Pentax 645 shots.
    Last time I was in Coney Island, I was fitting it in at the end of a trip so it was like 7AM on a rainy October morning, but there were still those crazy winds blowing the sand across the beach.

    How you like shooting with the Pentax 645, I’ve had mine since 1992. Up until 2005ish I used mine solely for Landscape photography. Then I tried digital and just hated that format. Then bought a Nikon F3, love that camera too but have a real issue trying to get focus. My eyes aren’t what they used to be. I’d love to find a 6x6 but they to damn expensive so it’s going back to my 645 for me.
    Great video and awesome images!

    those photos at the desert came out really dope! did you ever manage to take photos of the moon rising? i had a similar situation in yosemite, driving out of the park and we noticed the moon peeking out over the yosemite valley and we had to stop to photograph it; those ended up being some really sick astro photos in bw.
