As of late: 120 film

With the prep for the exhibition and the picked up pace of my Real Job, there has been little time left to process the film I shot in August and September. That’s only partially true- there has been time but not the drive to tackle it all. Since yesterday I’ve done just about half of what is in the picture above. If you have the time, putting off film developing is a good idea though. You need to separate yourself from the moment you took the photo to be able to edit what to print.
Just because the events surrounding your own personal experience of taking a particular photograph were amazing to you does not mean that same elation or mystery or whatever you felt automatically makes a challenging picture. But if you can handle (balance) an experience with the descriptive qualities of a camera, then it is possible to suggest all kinds of things.
It’s usually best to give the camera the benefit of the doubt though. Let it help you out.
