Great video! I enjoyed it. Thank you.

Great idea the postcard :D

[@kennethwajda]

Thanks. I was using my phone but it would shut off on me and I got tired of turning it back on.

Lovely hearing your process from start to finish! I personally found that developing and scanning and organising slowed my film photography down quite a bit, so I only shot 10 rolls this year while I mostly shot digital, especially any trips that included plane travel, since I also find the whole handchecking situation a bother to deal with. I'd like to shoot more film again in the new year, though, maybe have the processing done professionally again with the first few rolls.

[@kennethwajda]

Sure, whatever works. Film has its own special look and it's worth the effort for me. Good luck in 2025.

[@caulacau2318]

Thanks for sharing. Very inspiring.

[@kennethwajda]

You're welcome. :-)

Always enjoy seeing your beautiful portrait work. I can’t believe you have such a convoluted editing process! Whatever works for you. Would like to see a video of you on the street interacting with the people.

It's quicker in real time than I can describe it.

Great video on making beautiful street photos. I enjoy watching your videos for inspiration. You're a true artist. BTW, what film do you use?

[@kennethwajda]

Thank you for the compliment. Ilford HP5 and Kodak HC110/b for developing.

[@stephenkruft2213]

Good information! My first MF camera in the 60s was an identical 3.5F.

[@kennethwajda]

Still have it?

[@stephenkruft5966]

@kennethwajda no, not for a long time.

[@ericsande5345]

I have no recollection of the gear used but the local photographer that did grade school photos in my youth would have us say something funny to break a smile. It was fairly rural Montana so "greasy grimy gopher guts" was a staple.

Monkey Farts!

[@kennethwajda]

That's funny!
