The Road

I'm off on a roadtrip. Will be on the road by the time you read this. So while I'm away you get a daily dose of photos I took while on a mini roadtrip to Otaki last weekend.

Don't you just love how I post more regularly when I'm out of town than when I'm here?

The Trial

A few weeks ago I bought some film. From B&H. Cos supplies here are inconsistent and prices are getting ridiculous.

I bought quite a lot of film - Portra 160VC, 120 and 4x5. And cos I could I also bought some film I'd never seen on these shores - Ektar 100.

Then, cos I could, and I felt like I needed to take some more photos, and that I needed a good walk, I went back to this place - only more prepared, mentally, physically, and equipment wise.

I took some photos. And compared films.

I couldn't tell much difference.

But then I couldn't be arsed doing consistent scanning etc to match colour and grain and all those things that one looks at when comparing films.

I did, however, notice that Ektar is half a stop slower than Portra, which is quite a bit when you're dealing with 1/2sec at F2.8.

So the top is Porta.

The bottom being Ektar.

I like some of these shots.

I also like the walk.

Though I was still utterly knackered by the end.

And it still took as long as the first time.

Even though I was more prepared, mentally, physically, and equipment wise.

The Sidesteps

I'm currently working on a very important and intriguing project.

Last weekend, being a long one, I thought I should actually take some photos for it.

These two are unlikely to be seen again.
