Took some Kodak Portra 800 film and my new (used) 85mm prime lens to San Francisco’s Downtown First Thursday to try some night shots in complex lighting conditions. Here’s a thread of some of the ones I think are neat

Golconda Fort in Hyderabad has a 250kg steel block you can try lifting. Strangers gather around and cheer each other on as people try to lift it

trying some colorization work on this, the lighting lets me make this look kind of like a painting. needs a little more work I think but still looks kinda neat

Question to my fellow #35mm photographers: what is your post-exposure process?

How do you get from film -> image on the screen?

Do you have any development workflows? Scanning processes you like? Any coloring?

I’m fairly new to this world and would love to learn what works for everyone!

ext on my color correction journey is our friend @karlthefog.bsky.social. turns out it’s way harder to pull out any vivid colors than I expected, so instead I’m trying to lean into the haze

can get some cool lighting using the night tungsten-adjusted cinestill 800 film during daylight

figured out how to use the cinestill tools to color correct the raw negative scans this is so cool

stumbled into an incredible deal for a high quality film scanner off eBay and my photos are turning out a lot better, especially the night photos. this was with the low quality film.
