Pilot Knoll Trail on 35mm

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

Fort Worth Nature Center on 35mm

I decided to test out some specialty kind of 35mm film. This is not an ad, just me being curious. The film I shot is called Dubblefilm Jelly 200ios. Dubblefilm makes color film that then has a unique color wash over it and every photo comes out differently. Jelly has multiple different colors: red, yellow,

Hiking Pilot Knoll Trails

It rained and was overcast a lot in the last week so when Saturday dawned clear I knew Bear and I needed to get out for a bit. We got a bit of a late start because we had to run some errands first and yes, the trail was muddy. I really wish I had

Lake Worth Monster Hunting

My apologies that this is a bit after Halloween but honestly, it’s never too late for spooky stories. Okay, as much as I love a good monster or cryptid story I would not actually go “hunting” for one. I prefer to read about them. That being said, I did recently go hike at the Fort

Denton Square: 35mm Film Review

… and Bear (because he is cute). So I have been playing with some new film. All of these photos were taken on our Pentax K1000 with a fixed 50mm lens. I do have another lens for this camera but honestly, I rarely use it. I like the simplicity of the fixed focal length. When

Washington: Orcas Island

Here is a little bit of a sneak-peek from our trip to Orcas Island earlier this summer. I will post more as I have time. Despite the time it takes to get there I would 100% go back in a heartbeat. Orcas is one of the San Juan Island. To get there: fly into Seattle,

2024 North Texas Fair and Rodeo

The North Texas Fair and Rodeo is currently going on and we got to go last weekend. Yes, it was hot but not was hot as last year. We had a ton of fun, Keltin took the camera to take some pictures of my sister who is a member of the Fairgrounders. This is a

Niagara Falls: Crossing the Rainbow Bridge

Niagara Falls Banner

I spoke a little bit about the Rainbow Bridge last week but wanted to bring more attention to it. There are two ways to get across the bridge: driving and walking. Driving typically takes a lot longer because those crossing have to go through border patrol on each end and pay a toll. The actual

Niagara Falls Wine Tasting

Niagara Falls Banner

Originally we did not have a wine tasting on our to do list for Niagara Falls. However, due to flight times we flew in a day earlier than we had initially planned. We already had a big falls tour scheduled with Niagara Regional Tours and my sister talked to them to get a winery tour

Small Town Kansas in Film

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
