I shot my first set of nudes. It was fine, some of the photos were excellent and she was really happy with them.

But honestly I'm not sure that I'm interested in doing it again. It was fun, but honestly I've had more fun doing landscapes. I don't have the added pressure of trying to pose someone and worrying about her neck looks too fat and making sure her arms don't look too muscular and all that other shit. It's just a lot of extra work, consideration and stress and honestly seeing a woman naked isn't that big of deal if you're not a robot. Honestly the few candid shots I got of her as we were setting up for the shoot were my favorite ones, they were more 'human', they had more character and meaning to me than any of the nudes.

I think the dudes on this board obsessed with doing nudes are just coomers.

>negative film ages better than positive
>black and white better than color
>slow films better than fast
>storage conditions (dry/cool) matter more than years
>Negative film is shot 1 or 2 stops overexposed and then PULLED in development so that you build more density in the exposure and develop less such that the fog is limited
>slide/positive film is shot at box speed or overexposed and pulled.
>if you home develop you can also use benzotriazole as a restrainer for the the first developer in E6 process

I'm trying to fix this OM1 that I got yesterday, I already fixed the lens that refused to stop down. Some linkage inside had jumped out of place so that was an easy one.

After 6 months of shooting film. I decided it was getting expensive and wondering if it was really worth it. I went out with my digital scanning camera and took a few shots as a test to see if I really "needed" to shoot film.

[spoiler:lit] Digital looks like total ass [/spoiler:lit]

I just cannot go back. I was happy with the compositions, but the color and detail rendering were god awful. Trees and grass in particular, sand, anything with fine detail was somehow simultaneously mushy and over-sharpened. Color was garish and Rockwellian. Compared to the subtle and nuanced rending of film digital just falls woefully short. Even the editing is much faster, film looks more or less good right out of the box once scanned. The majority of which was just white balance tweaking and dialing in the exposure.

I guess I'm mostly just shocked by how awful it is going back. The only thing I can compare it to is that one time I stopped drinking soda, and then tried one months later. It was awful, I couldn't believe I had even enjoyed drinking it.

No.

I don't know shit about fuck. This a good camera? Looking for something to mostly take travel pictures with.

I have been studying alot of ancient history, specifically ancient astronomy.
I am now certain that all world events can be predicted from studying the skies.
Anybody here using telescopes to photograph comets? I am looking for roughly what I need, and examples of what you guys are getting with your gear?
I really need to be able to see and photograph comets and meteors in space.

Classic IG thread. Post yours, rate others etc etc. and feel free to post whatever other site you post your photos on.

Now that the dust has settled, is he the Robert Frank of our lifetime bros?
