@weftyarn Thank you so much. Took this shot in June of 2022,but never got around to editing it.

[weftyarn]

Glad you pulled it out the archive

@Andymac @endo man these two pictures fit so well together, was that arranged? beautiful shots, give us more!

[Andymac]

Sure!
Here some travel pics, guess the Country!

[Mizmazzle]

Chile!! Incredible.
@endo love the candid, yet retro-esque style of that photo. Not sure if 1994 counts as retro…probably does in Indonesia.

[weftyarn]

Man I love the second and third @Andymac

Here’s a triplet from the archive
Not sure if I have posted these before

@Jett129 I have to admit I’m not the biggest selective color fan, but this one I actually really like!!

[Jett129]

@weftyarn Thanks,I’m not shooting these days,and I’ve just been cleaning up old files,and occasionally editing something. Before there was color film,artists would occasionally color in or colorize select parts of the image. Trying to emulate that.

[weftyarn]

I grew up with a color photography capable cellphone in my pocket and thinking about what efforts people had to take back in the days is absolutely mind boggling. My father learned the craft of manually retouching film and whenever he tells stories about that I’m just fascinated.

I like your idea of emulating that process

When first dating my wife, we used to spend time together in the dark room developing film. At the time she was studying plant biology and used to use the electron microscope quite a bit to take some super cool pictures of insects feeding on plant cells. It is so fun and rewarding to take physical film and turn them into prints.

Kind of miss those days!

@goosehd I took photography classes and you,as a requirement,had to develop and print all your own images.
