I’ve been looking at my old black and white film photos, and I love love love them! The aesthetic is so beautiful, and all these photos bring such a smile to my face:<\/p>\n

I shot these all on a film Leica MP and Leica 35mm f2 summicron,<\/a> with yellow filter (to add contrast and brighten skin tones).<\/p>\n

I also shot 100 rolls of Trix, then waited a year before processing them.<\/a> I got them all processed and scanned by a “PHOTO LAB” in Berkeley.<\/p>\n

As a reminder to myself, I am going to start shooting more film photos again. My digital photos look nice too, but the aesthetic of black and white is so much more beautiful to me:<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

For comparison, here are some black and white photos shot digital, RICOH GR II<\/a> x ERIC KIM MONOCHROME PRESET<\/a>. I still love the photos, but monochrome film still looks better to me:<\/p>\n
