35mm Film SLR Camera Practice 24/03/11

‘’ Photography is the art the science and practice of creating pictures by recording radiation on a radiation sensitive medium’’



After last week’s inspiration of street photography, I decided to do my own street photography with an unfamiliar 35mm Film Camera – hopefully something comes out from today’s film.
Having not used film for so long, I am really anticipating whether I would get any images out of this film – will the pictures be over/ under exposed- will there even be anything on the film?

Film photography… in this century, majority of camera users are switching to digital- the idea of snapping at every occasion is already making me appreciate a photograph less and less. Each frame and photograph becomes so precious and precise under influence of a film camera… in contrast to digital, I was very restricted to what was important to take and what was not – I ended up having 15 frames left at the end of the day!

Today- I really enjoyed the challenge of using a film SLR. I am probing more and more to this method of documentation.
