When my family traveled to the south of France this spring break, I decided that I would leave my digital camera behind. Instead I would take my Nikon FE2, a bunch of TRI-X, and my 24mm and 55mm lenses. As an added bonus this kit was something like 20 pounds lighter....
When I dropped my film off at the lab, I was expected to get crap when I picked them up. I was pleasantly surprised.
The tones in these black and white photos were unlike anything I could ever dream of doing with my digital camera without spending hours in photoshop. While they were black and white, they had this great tone to them. Subtle, but enough to be noticed. The detail in these prints simply astounded me, particularly in the shadows and highlights.
Check out this shot, and others on my flickr.
