Why Do I Shoot Film?
For the love of science
It's science really! I love how it's a chemical reaction that makes the image, photons hitting light-sensitive silver halide crystals on a film, for them to be filtered and colour transformed into an image with developing. All I am saying is the idea that a little chemical reaction like that happens inside my camera every time I take a shot, not to mention the fact that there's only a limited amount per roll!
Roll With it
So there’s commonly only 36 per roll in a 35mm film roll. In some instances like shooting Ektachrome, that means a dollar per shot, so in some situations, you really need to make sure a shot is worth it which also means you kinda have to be more in the moment, and for someone like me who shoots manual, it really requires to have your thinking cap on!
