↑Leica M3, Kodak Portra 400 NC, and Leica 50mm Summilux ASPH @ f/1.4.

Film is back!

At least, on Prosophos.com.

Inspired by former-student-turned-film-processing-Master, Mark Ewanchuk (he’s even developing colour film at home — check out Mark’s guide for developing colour film).

Having said that, several “errors” were committed in the making of this image:

  • Expired colour film (Kodak Portra 400 NC) was used.
  • It was processed with my process for developing B&W film.
  • All the chemicals used were also well past their expiration dates.

Still, you can’t help but be amazed at how forgiving, and beautiful, film can be.

A lovely photographic medium for the lovely people in your life.

My “hide and seek” image stolen.

Q&A, Teaching point

prosphos-stolen-image1

I just found out my Hide and Seek image was stolen by this other blog.  No written request for permission, no compensation, no… nothing.

I know what I want to do, but I’d appreciate any advice from you, the loyal visitors of my site (unless you’re the one who stole my image :)).

[UPDATE:  I’ve just left a comment on the other site requesting that my image be removed.]

[UPDATE #2:  The image has now been removed.]
