So I decided to share a few of my old favorites from my trusty N90s and FM3A. Most of these are cross processed shots, which is a method of developing slide film with a regular 35mm film process. This is a fun effect because it skews the colors and usually brightens them. It is exciting because you never know exactly what you will get.
These two photos were taken on a rainy day in downtown Seattle. While there is nothing really in focus except for the rain drops, I like this pair because for me, it conveys sort of a lonely (for the first shot of the black figure) or drab type of feeling. But it also makes me think about who the person is, walking alone in the rain, and the pleasant colors blurring in the background. I have these prints hanging in my home. They actually look quite a bit more interesting in a large print.
I like this photo because I caught this gull right as his feet left the dock railing. The wing in the upper left hand corner also makes for an interesting composition.Well, that's all for today. I will post a few more in the coming weeks.
