----FILM----

























---DIGITAL---

Naked Snak3: I actually strive for older-looking photos. It's the reason why I'm still using film rather than a digital camera, haha. I appreciate the comments a lot!

celqy: Thanks a lot! hmm.. Lomography RedScale was the only Lomo film I had ever tried, actually. I doubt I'd use it again since for some reason only a portion of the negatives come out when I develop them (on the three occasions I had used that type of film). Lomo Cross Process film actually looks pretty nice, although I'd prefer to do the cross processing myself rather than sending in replica film into my local 1 hour since they're jerks there, and would most likely try and alter the photos after seeing awkward colors. I'd like to see your photographs, btw!

Nice stuff mate. I too am a big fan of more traditional style photos. Oh and accident shots always make for good photos!

Thanks a bunch and it's no prob, haha, whatever photos I have posted here are also on there. XD

Love the work. I really want to get into 35mm photography, I love the way the pictures look vintage, there's something great about film as opposed to digital.

Thanks a bunch x3 and you really should. It's a very satisfying form of photography.

I have rolls of black and white film that I'm procrastinating on getting developed. :/

I do plan on it soon! I have a digital camera, not an SLR or anything but it has a decent array of options and configurations, but I just.. I just can't get the feel I want of the pictures. It's TOO crisp and clean, which is where the 35mm would come in wonderfully!

Aye, which film camera are you interested in buying? O:

Not to hijack the thread or anything but as far as film cameras go if you can get your hands on an older camera I highly recommend it. When I'm using film I borrow either my mates or my mums friends. Both have Minoltas from the 80s and they both take wonderful photos. You get that organic feel to the shots with them as opposed to the clean, sharp finishes you get with modern DSLRs.
