I broke the 777 likes and I am sorry. Portugal. The man pop up is a dream scenerio. I still remember my first time hearing them at a party in 2006ish and it was heavenly with a good buzz going on. Love the little slices of life you captured and the turqoiuse is so good. PNW is a goal trip of mine as well and I loved the different perspective you brought to it compared to Jason's. 20:03 that kind of looks like Andy from Manchester Orchestra. Such a good choice to go with the redscale! From experience I find architecture to be a good subject for the unique look and these photos reassure me. Wow, the beach redscale is unreal. The infrared is so good as well. You're killing it dude. Robert Patt is a gem tbh. His smaller films are so good. OrthoPlus my fav. Solid video dude!

[@BadFlashes]

🫶🏼 ahhhhh thanks 🙏🏼

[@spearit66]

[@piketubeman]

Caleb can you talk about how to deal with the issues of flying on planes with film? And the x-ray machines right?

[@BadFlashes]

I would just say put all your film in a plastic bag. As you’re taking off your shoes at security… take the bag out ask a TSA agent to hand check and should be good to go. :)

[@piketubeman]

That is what I've heard! I just wanted to ask someone who has flown a little with it. Thanks for answering that question ❤ this content is amazing, thank you for making it!

[@BadFlashes]

🫶🏼 it’s really chill for the most part 😊

[@akazanecki]

Can confirm this as well! Flew for the first time with film on multiple flights in the US and TSA was super cool about hand check.

[@VirtualGuth]

​@@BadFlashes Me too. While the video was great and I truly enjoyed it, I typically tend to check out film photography related videos to see how today's younger film photographers are going about exploring this medium. In my opinion (for the 2 cents that it's worth) you not only nailed things like composition and exposure in the images you shared, but your choice of film stocks for any given situation also seemed to be spot on. I'm just a regular guy that has been shooting film for long enough that it's embarrassing, but I was impressed with your images. It was also fun to see my town and the PNW in general as seen through the eyes of yourself, Jason and the others. Take care and shoot well.

[@BadFlashes]

🥰 thanks so much. Your words are too kind. I appreciate the love ❤️

Influencer marketing attribution can be tough to measure. In my case, it’s easy: I watched this and immediately tried Lomo 800 and got hooked just in time to take advantage of the price-cut stock-up. Nice. (Like, in case that helps Birgit with a coffee expense approval or whatever)

[@BadFlashes]

Hahaha omg. I mean right. It helps that I love that stuff sooooo much. I bought 4 boxes 😆

[@LaskyLabs]

Those lomo purple shots are to date the only shots I've seen from it that I've liked. Also, let's go Fuji greens and reds! Which I'll probably never be able to shoot again because Superia is dead and their slide film is perpetually out of stock! What ISO did you shoot that NPZ 800 at? Thst was *killer.*

@@BadFlashes First we gotta talk lab scanners. I’ll get back to you with that.

[@orestes1984]

I love the fact that you inclue 8 an 16mm in your footage now. I've been getting into 8mm a bit, it's just so expensive once you add up the facts of development and process, and even if you do go to that point where you do it yourself, the bare minimum unless you shoot Ektachrome or Tri-X for projection, paying someone to scan it.... It can be up to $100 here in Australia for 4k ProRes 4:2:2 just for scanning. That would be OK, but then like, 2:30minutes these days at 24fps. I mean.... Its a lot if you are not doing it in a monetised way like yourself. Lomo turquoise has a lot of that classic Fuji green about it. I never thought about using it in a forest setting like that. I will have to try a roll. Not gonna lie those beaches at 17:00 make me homesick, this look like my home town. But then the Pacific North West looks a lot like the South East coast of Australia. Oregon, Washington, California, it's beautiful.... Staying in a house next to an abandoned house in states where Ted Bundy used to play games and photograph things of the more grotesque type... I would have been out of there lickity split though also.
