I’m really curious about the rolls I developed today, because these were the 2 rolls of CineStill 800T that I tried at the end of last year. Maybe I scan one of them tomorrow to see how they turned out. I find scanning colour really difficult by the way. Today I tried to scan a roll of the cheap Rossmann film and I think I will have to do quite a bit of colour correction on them to make them look less dull. That’s what happens when you shoot cheap colour film on a grey day. I’ll indulge in that tomorrow though and today show you some more XP2 shots. I quite like how they turned out.
All pictures taken with: Olympus XA, F.Zuiko 35mm f/2.8.

This time some umbrella shots. With the weather these days it’s no wonder.

My feeling about the weather exactly.

I like how only the umbrella is really sharp.

Dynamic tilt. I probably felt inspired by the biker.

And a book in her hand … you know, those things with paper and stuff!
Isn’t that film a C-41 processing? Can you develop it in B&W chemistry?
Yes, it’s C41 film, but you can develop it in bw chemistry as well. You lose a bit of latitude that way, but it’s quite nice when it’s properly metered. I know a few people who actually prefer it in Rodinal, because it has more contrast than with regular C41 development.
Stay bold Lilly, stay bold.
Will try, will try, Harry 😉
