I shoot Film : Hockley

More images from my experiment to shoot 35mm film on CineStill BwXX using a Pentax ME camera and 50mm f1.7 prime lens.

This is. Hockley in Nottingham, a diverse and cool area of the city, with independent shops, cafe's , bars and clubs. Always good for street's and strangers.

Cinestill is a film first used in 1959 to shoot movies in Hollywood studios. Now available in black and white 35mm film
Nice street photography. Are you developing the film your self? Something that impressed me.

@corinnec Corinne thanks for your kind words , this film was developed and scanned professionally , my previous films were developed by a friend and the negatives scanned (photographed on a lightpad) by me. I sent this one off professionally because it was a specialist mono film.

@jackies365 Jackie, the film has a bit of a hype about it , maybe emperors clothes. I am pleased with the results , whether that's the chemical processing, my in camera settings, my edit of the scanned images , the film sensitivity or a mix of all the above
