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.
