Exploring the Places No One is Talking About
The prompt that produced this story was “Found Footage.” The inspiration was The Blair Witch Project. This is probably the best well know found footage movie. This was a great way to end the Halloween season. My short story does not deal with video but film. This is the unpolished, original story. I will probably
All things told, I would go to Niagara Falls again. I would take my husband and I would do somethings differently but overall there is some great history in this area. I probably wouldn’t do another winery tour but I would do a ghost tour with the same company. I also really enjoyed shooting film
This is a combination of pictures that both Keltin and I have both taken on film. There is something magical about the cyclical nature of life. I hope that you enjoy these and here is to winter’s gray so that we may appreciate spring’s blooms. There is a beauty in decayTo quote The Lion KingThe
In a continuation of the Dubblefilm Jelly experiment I took my camera on the Pilot Knoll Trail. There are some good examples here about how sometimes there is a ton of added color and sometimes the pictures come out with almost no extra color. I really love the pictures of the trails – especially the

In the interest of posting our film photos here are some we took at the Bluebonnet festival! This was one of those ridiculous days where we drove a long way (an hour one way) to see flowers and take pictures and it was worth it. I don’t know if this festival will be a yearly
Cameras Acquiring a film camera is both easier and more difficult than you think. Plenty of antique stores have old film cameras. However, they may not always work or they may take a type of film that is no longer made. Disposable cameras are still available but being one time use they aren’t the best
Over the summer we went to Keltin’s home town for the 4th of July. Keltin’s parents gave us their old Pentax K1000 35mm camera. The only film owe had for it right then was a roll of 400iso Kodak film that had expired 20 years before. Thankfully, expired film can be used. Quick research told
I have been considering this film series for a while and obviously I’m not talking about film as in movies but film as in analog format photos. A little over a year ago Keltin got a 120mm TLR camera for his birthday. This Rollicord camera was built in Germany in 1938 and still takes fantastic
