PADKBFD/14: June 18, 2008
I really should get dedicated B/W film. I like the look of Fujifilm Neopan 100 Acros but I probably can't find it anywhere in Vancouver. The only B/W I can find is Kodak "Professional" BW400CN but I prefer Fuji. I could always just shoot in digital and tweak it to look film-ish.. but it just isn't the same. I rarely shoot film at all, because of cost and inconvenience but I occasionally still do. But anyways, to the photo: I took this on my street with some Superia on an overcast day when the blossoms were in full bloom. I darkened the shadows and deepened the saturation, then converted to black and white in Picasa to attempt to achieve a B/W film look. I'm not very good at post-processing, or photography on that matter.
