Ngl that desert outfit kinda fucks my dude.

[@JacobPrater]

Looks like Ansel Adams

[@xander1052]

Jason's videography is fucking spot on

[@whothennow24]

Who is your dude, and how did he like being fucked by the desert outfit?

[@whothennow24]

The first shot is absolutely grotesque, but the second one is dope.

[@DeeRosa]

I really love how you pour your pain and self loathing into every image; truly ethereal.

[@keithparker7412]

[@DeeRosa]

@@keithparker7412 yeah man whatever you say.

[@Darkslide99]

😂😂

[@calebwoods]

Perfect timing. I was having some bad grainyday withdrawls and almost resorted to film reddit to get my fix.

[@duncan1821]

relatable

[@ggill1313]

Fuck film reddit and fuck Lenythemage (aka Lenythelizard)

[@gonnor_cates]

My favorite detail of this video is Jason uses the same bag hanging from his tripod while shooting to balance his mic stand while filming.

[@Rezz4Prez]

@20:05 that's a Datsun 120Y and the toilet was an option in the JDM GLX version, really rare to spot one in the desert 👍

[@chrissybabyist]

I actually loved the window shot with the inside darker. It looked really nice. As always great video!

[@gary344]

These 4x5 IR are for me some of your best work. Your vision becomes evocative. The story within the image emerges and becomes hauntingly alive. Bless 🕊🌱

[@greentothebone]

Love the line 'After we stole the catalytic converter' 😆

[@neil_armweak]

Patrolling the Mojave almost makes you wish for nuclear winter

[@stereoprologic]

Came here fully prepared to leave this comment... looks like you were faster :)

[@neil_armweak]

@@stereoprologic fastest keyboard in New Vegas ;p

[@DLivingston]

6:44 wow, Love how that came out. I also liked the previous living room shot through the window. 7:41 is close to the " WHATS IN THE BOX" scene from Se7en.

[@sportzalband]

Sometimes i think your videos is the only thing that inspires me to shoot film. Thank you.

[@Joshj963]

Your photography videos are the best. I tripped across your channel a few months ago and I've since watched all your videos many times. Nothing lasts forever but I'll be watching as long as you you keep making content. Keep it up, I can't wait to see your photobook when you make one. I love the variety of your work.

[@wncryz]

Oh man thoose two infrared b&w shots of houses are one of the best I've ever seen. Keep going, you're doing well and I love your work

[@curtisliddell7486]

Perfect timing… I’m just about to slam a flaming hot Mountain Dew for the homies

[@karolaneuer5506]

This is the advantage of IR photography (and one of the reasons I love it): You can shoot in the middle of the day and get great results.

[@joepphoto]

Dude these are some of my favorite shots i've seen from you so far. Personally really diggin the contrasty infrared shots and although i'm really not a fan of filters, really diggin the smoke filter shot. Great video, thanks a lot :)

[@chuckdries]

this is the best video you've ever made and the three 4x5s you called out at 12:37 are all bangers imo

[@someonewithsomename]

This channel just became a diary of how Mountain Dew effects a photographer's brain degrading his sense of beauty.

[@jasongold6751]

Don't get mean! Grainydays does great photography. Maybe the 4x5 and 8x10 ere titanic disasters! The cost of processing, would have stopped me. dead stop. I have a shoebox of old mostly 35mm and 120 Fuji film. Tried one lab, the roll was wrecked but so was a good film. Main resson going Digital was lousy processing! Even Kodak did me some numbers! In distant past. My stull usually OK to perfect. Bravo. Soldier on!

[@danienelphoto]

I laughed so hard at the "The 4x5 can f*** right off". Hahaha. Kodak E100S was my goto in my film days as a commercial photog.

[@OptieEm]

Always enjoy a good random grainy days upload

[@randallstewart1224]

Infrared film can give interesting, i.e., dramatic, effect. I particularly like the image at 6:50. It's tough to zero in on film with whichever infrared filter you use, then sort out a particular developer. So, you end up shooting quite a bit of film in various situations until you get a feel for its reliable use. Got to love a video where someone is actually comfortable using a Grafmatic back. I used them 30 years ago or so. They have a sequence of specific steps to use and are easy to screw up, but they are much more efficient than the old style 2-sheet holders. Nice video.

[@germansaez]

Great IF shots. Also, love the fact that you and Caleb publish always at the same time :)

[@O.Persson]

You're killing the redscale kinda thing. And I include the infrared in that statement. And that Hassy shutter sound is pure music!

[@AeromaticXD]

Beautiful photos! Love the Catlabs shots!

[@jagwire8671]

hey look he finally got that blade runner vegas effect

[@tannergoblin]

Talking about what's going through your head as you compose these is stupid useful ngl

[@sputumtube]

The images captured with the large format camera early in the video are breath-taking.

[@PVDriveWest]

The powerline shot is a beauty!

[@Joshj963]

Also, I've never seen someone roast themselves with such comedic artistry....... Such talent..... 😢

[@mjozefowski]

4x5 can't be cursed - those pictures are amazing!

[@kristianskurtveit8520]

Always a pleasure to watch! Lovely redscale vibe!

[@HeyTomHaas]

22:32 dude I’m obsessed this this first reversed ecktachrome shot. Love your work dude. Thanks for the inspiration

[@geuros]

Being original in these days is not an easy task, a lot of the cool stuff that you might be able to discover in 19th century is now well, discovered, and while trying to discover new things that haven't been done before is great, there's no shame in actually doing the cool stuff somebody else has discovered way before you got born. I love the first IR landscape 4x5, seriously, that's cool af.

[@aureltflav]

Damn just finished my day of work it's 2am and this masterpiece just hit the right spot great work as usual thank you for that 😊

[@aaroncavii]

the 4x5 shot from the living room with the hole in the ceiling was an amazingly shot!

[@yendornilknarf149]

I really enjoyed this. I think it’s some of your best work. Good contrast and composition. Love this style so please keep at it. Looking back at it I was a bit surprised that you thought the day was a lost cause when you got back to the 4Runner. Interesting that often that feeling is somewhat akin to “letting go” and just letting it happen. Again, I thought that work was great, so…..

[@D3lor34n]

Different strokes for different folks i guess, but for what it's worth i love your first two shots in this one. Especially the second.

[@alhOOO2O]

Absolutely loved those 4x5 infrared shots 👏

[@SatanSupimpa]

The soundtrack for this videos is probably named " kinda sorta like the True Detective opening".

[@charlywedl5544]

I see you are working with the Arca Swiss Cube. A great device! I'm sure you're happy with it. Great pictures, respect. I particularly like the picture of the landscape that you took through the window.

[@scenicedge]

I like your "Livingroom with a Hole in the Roof" monochromatic picture. I like the framing of the mountains and have no problem with the dark areas because I can see enough detail to satisfy me, but then I like contrasty pictures anyway as long as none of the light areas are not blow out. Ejnoying the video!

[@gonzotravelling4857]

I really like that second shot!

[@bravo-popov]

New subscriber here. The playlists are absolute chaos and I'm here for it. Whatever that means.

[@jujub5557]

I really liked that mountain through the window shot. The extreme blackness of it is nice

[@Lomogeek]

I loved the infrared photos and the redscale one. Ngl, I'm half tempted to pick up an r72 filter and film now.

[@4Dcruz]

I have a degree in Powerpoletronics. The upper part of the pole is getting direct sun for longer and is therefore more sunbleached than the lower areas. Also animals may spread poop on the lower areas

[@joshuasapp1716]

The music for this video is on point.

[@Grandmastergreyy]

The soundtrack for this episode was dope. Also the latest mamiyamigos was cool I really fuck with Jason and his work. Glad you had him on!

[@fallryan]

Your buried car is a Datsun B210, and have you considered presenting it as a triptych?

[@user-is4jf8yr4z]

The last 4x5 shot looks DOPE

[@-adrienblanc]

I think the car deserved a try with the cinestill ! nice work with the rolleil IR ! I dont know if the blad magazine is enought sealed for IR Films, I must try it 🤩

[@MrSindriSvan]

Man, usually your photos resemble something like a Chipotle aftermath, but that Power-line shot at 8:35... It looks how I feel after I've expunged the Chipotle demon.

[@GR8SALAD]

I've said it once before, and I'll say it ONE MORE TIME (because I'd rather be not seen, than seen several times and be annoying) but I think a trip to Cerro Gordo could prove to be really interesting

[@morbuch5903]

Infrared shots were really neat.

[@stabokbose]

Jason will try every aspect ratio ever invented for videography

[@samwestenskow]

I think that the car shots make a great series.

[@somephotovideos]

The guy who owned that car probably had the toilet in it because he was drinking too much Flaming Hot Cheetos Mountain Dew trying to get some big company to bring back a discontinued product. But the real beauty of it all is he never gave up hope. Well, until some violent blood-lusting desert nomads disabled his vehicle and set it (and his toilet) on fire. 🔥🚽🚗 Pretty sure this was on an episode of Unsolved Mysteries, and we still don’t know where this missing man is to this day.

[@tylerjhunter]

5:16 "self-sabotaging myself"

[@lmnop7098]

Jason's drip looks 🔥with the hat in the desert. Lookin like a real artist

[@67davejb]

some nice shots there. One day I will get out therefor abandoned buildings in the desert. Don't get many deserts in the UK!

[@2071photo]

Digital Leica? “Do It!” * in palpatine voice*

wooooah 2nd gen 4runner, not much love for that platform!! great video as always Jason!

[@gewglesux]

3G here..... love the runner!

[@dulceglass9111]

Nucular Photography take: Midday sunlight photography is GREAT and y'all just don't like challenging yourselves.

[@Itscarlosocando]

You don't need decide what to expose to, expose to outside and use a flash to fill inside

[@kaminlnw]

It's a bad day for me until I found out you uploaded. It gets worse. JKD lmao love ur vids

[@MrSimonj1970]

Hanging that swinging bag on your tripod is costing you sharpness

[@SA-3270]

Your work is just amazing!! Thank you for inspiring me (and so many others) to pick up their cameras and shoot. Could you please let ke know which diffusion filter do you use for the video? Is it Moment Cinebloom or Tiffen Black Pro Mist?

[@tonyferrell3456]

I'm about 65% sure that the car is a 74ish Datsun B210 sedan.

[@jonbrookscomedy]

Datsun 120Y. Toilet was standard. It's how Japan defeated American manufacturing at a time when carpet was still an option in most chevys.

[@bb-in-bullcity]

Nahhhh you lying. That second photo is fire 🔥

[@oscoliverschmocker8594]

The sandy house looks like the other tame impala cover btw :)

[@actionimagesphotography]

The 4x5 IR shots are killer! Self deprecation included in every image.

[@petalguru5432]

My other half thinks the car is known as a Datsun Sunny in the UK. We had one similar in similar condition to that one - known in the UK as a right shed. 😂. Happy days.

[@ZOMBIELUIS666]

You're fuckin tripping dude that second shot with the 4x5 is sick! It looks like the outside is a picture is being projected against a canvas within a dark room📽️📽️📽️📽️. Great fuckin work!

[@ModernVintageFilm]

Yes!!!

[@ModernVintageFilm]

You know I'm doing nothing. Great upload timing

[@biscuiteater40]

There comes a time when you just got to admit you’re a run and gunner and 4x5 isn’t you’re style. Love the sky in infrared all the time.

[@julianprzybysawski8543]

Have you ever done black and white trichromes? That's a good way to blow 3x the money on film for 1x the reward. Trichroming Rollei IR can effectively recreate aerochrome, as long as there's no movement in the scene.

[@bowenxing6289]

dig your crazy max hair style

[@patrickmurphy6602]

Keep that Hassie on a leash! DAWG!

[@leojphillips]

yaaay new post

[@bnrynlds]

The R72 is a red filter. That's why it only lets through the red and infrared spectrum.

[@Xin200O]

EVERYONE WAKE UP GRAINYDAYS AND BAD FLASHES POSTED.

[@DylanSpitz]

Alright fine, I’m shooting redscale. WE GET IT

[@brakingbumps]

That #fart was amazing.

[@cedar4231]

the car is a 1977ish datsun b210 toilet was top spec

[@kartoffelstranger9187]

i'd probably just bring paint with me and when finding a cool composition, just paint over the graffiti...

[@DMTStokes]

Jason is what you get when you cross a retired LA hipster who’s good with a camera and Eeyore

[@jpsuperstar]

N-3 development!

[@ErwinSerle]

Quite good actually, after 4 afternoons doing 8 Fuji 120 slide films in Cinestill ...

[@sonnyMonsoon]

Birgit is not gonna be happy about that Lion King poster

[@sensitivedesensitivity7349]

I would buy a print of the shot at 6:49 in a HEARTBEAT.

[@jeremypiret]

Really loving your videos 👌 Boring question : what kind of filter did you use to film this video ? Some kind of diffusion filter ? Cheers from Belgium !

[@stevest55]

The buried car resembles an AMC - possibly the AMC Rebel?

[@63MacGuy]

I liked the back of the car in the desert

[@goldentapes]

random comment but i genuinely like the buzzcut on you lol
