Film is not Dead

Earlier this week, we decided to indulge ourselves, and buy a guide called, "Film Is Not Dead." This guide is written by Jonathan Canlas. It is simply a guide to put you in the mindset of film, rather than digital. That's right, I said film. It's a little thin piece of paper that is sensitive to light that so many people are afraid of. Well this is where this guide comes in. Jonathan Canlas teaches you step-by-step how to expose your images, depending on what type of film you have in your camera. This guide helps you understand the principles of film. But to truly develop your craft, you must practice. Jonathan can not stress this enough in his guide. We have read "Film Is Not Dead" from cover to cover many times since we received it. We will most likely read it again. This guide is a must for every digital photographer out there that wants to ignite their creativity again and try something different. The pictures below are our from one of the first rolls of film we shot since reading the guide. (developed and scanned at Walgreens) Our first roll of film is being developed at Richards Photo Lab as we speak. We just wanted to shoot some while we waited. Enjoy!
