the Caffeinated Photog

These were shot on some old Kodak Gold 200 asa colour film, with my Pentax ME Super. All the colour films seem to be coming out with a very narrow spectrum, and require a lot of shadow, highlight and/or fill light added. But the results are interesting. However, for this sort of home developing I would recommend medium format over 35mm. For one thing they can be scanned at a decent res and will give quite amazing details. The 35mm film needs high res scanning, and that takes a long time. These were scanned at 600 dpi however, which is reasonably quick.
