ohnoes!

My bokeh attempt.  Or maybe a statement for something(?) 

bubble gun fun!

My inaanak (goddaughter to you) got one of those light-up bubble guns — which made for some great long exposure samples.

If only she’d stop shooting me with it.  )  (4-second exposures)

macro toys.

Playing around with the AF-Macro setting — I must have something set wrong because the pictures appeared darker on a computer screen — I cheated a little by fixing white balance/tone/exposure on Lightroom. :p

Film setting: Vibrant

Sharpness: 0

Saturation: 0

Contrast: +1

NR: -2

It could also very well be the fluorescent lighting in the batcave — ANYWAY, here are the pictures:

Now I’m seriously studying how I can get the most out of this camera — experimenting with film modes, (noise reduction done up -2) aperture settings and shutter speeds.  Will post more stuff when I take ‘em!

A very special thanks to Kimstore!  Speedy replies to SMS inquiries, low prices, VERY convenient pick-up location (St. Francis Square!) — and a seller who loves the gadgets enough to know/answer queries about ‘em.  Thanks, Kim!

Camera: Vivitar IC-100

Film: Kodak Ektachrome 64

redscale with hrulga.

If you read my unloading post, then you will have already seen the D.I.Y. 35mm adapter I use for Hrulga.  Here’s a roll I loaded backwards for the redscale effect:

Lesson learned: MORE sun.

Camera: Holga 120N
