summer on film [nikon f3]

December 24, 2024


Today is Christmas Eve, and I’m just now getting around to sharing some of the film photos that I took over the summer. I found myself primarily reaching for my film cameras this summer, especially once my Nikon F3 was returned after being CLA’d. The biggest thing I want to work on in the coming year is my film photography workflow. Right now I wait until I have 4-6 rolls of film ready to be sent out, which means those rolls will come back with photos taken months prior. That leads me to this moment: sharing photos from this summer on December 24. In any case, here are some of my favorite shots on film from this summer. These were all taken on my Nikon F3 with my 50mm Nikon Series E lens on a variety of film stocks, but mainly Kodak Gold 200 and Fujicolor Superia 400. Most of these shots are from some hikes that we went on, perusing around town, walks in the park, and an MLB Draft League game in our hometown. 
























I can’t resist photographing lily pads in the summertime.






This batch of film was processed and scanned by Indie Film Lab in Montgomery, AL on a Noritsu HS-1800.
