In September I went to pride for the first time since coming out. I didn’t intend to take a lot of photos but I always have a camera with me and in a hurry to get to the bus I picked some film to put in my bag to shoot. I chose Cinestill 50D because […]

My First Roll… Kodak Gold 200 in a Pentax ME Super and SMC Pentax-M SMC 50mm f/1.7

Film review: Kodak Gold 200 vs Fujicolor C200 comparison
