A sudden urge of the film bug, that i decided to start developing some film again. Developed 8 rolls from my current accumulating pile of film. I Haven’t touched the fixer since august last year, but it seemed to still smell so I guess it was still ok. Always great to see things that you don’t remember taking. A dump of a few here, but more to come.

Decided to use a roll of Portra 400, pushed to 800 in the day time with the Naniwa colour kit.
I didn’t know how much I missed colour, or how much i took it for granted when i was shooting with the digital camera only.

After taking up photography a few years back, any old photograph that I might have seen before doesn’t look the same anymore. I stumbled upon the archive for the State library of NSW, and whilst i’ve seen many of these on tv programs and old history books, I think it makes an interesting series on its own.

The 4th, 14th and 24th of each month, the shoutengai of Sugamo comes to life with its market stalls and food. These are from 2 rolls of neopan 400.

Awaodori in Koenji last weekend. It was the 2nd time i’ve been to this event. The rain on the night provided nice reflective light off the road.

A couple weeks back, was very lucky to be able to try a Leica M4 in Shinjuku. More pics from this afternoon here
