Here are some of my favorites from the new roll of film. I've been taking the film to Esix Labs, which apparently is the only place in the city of Atlanta that still processes black and white film. It is pretty expensive to get film processed there, but so far I've been really impressed at the quality of the prints. Here are some of my favorites.

This was taken at the mosque on 14th street.

Just a few of Prem's guitars: bass, electric, and acoustic.

I like this because Neerav was wearing his Monster Jam clothes and just looks like a farmer in this picture

Prem and I used a tripod for this one. I set the aperture to a fairly small setting (f/19) and set a really slow shutter speed (30 seconds) to get the streaks of lights going down the highway. This shot was taken from the top of the Management parking deck in Tech Square.

On-campus photography

I got in touch with Prem yesterday to take advantage of the beautiful weather (70 degrees in February!) and take some pictures outside. I finished up my second roll of film, which was ISO 125 and black & white. By the time we got outside at about 5:30, it was a little too dark to just freehand shoot, so I was lucky that Prem brought his tripod.

We ended up finding some really great places to shoot on campus. Two of my favorites were up on top of the Van Leer building and the top of the parking deck in Tech Square. We ended up spending two hours walking around and looking for good locations, and I got a total 7 pictures. It seems like a pretty crappy return on such a long time investment, but I like how using a film camera makes you really think about your compositions before you shoot. Also it was nice that Prem has basically the same camera except digital, so he could test out the settings beforehand to make sure the pictures would come out alright!

The film is getting processed right now, and pictures should be up sometime this week.
