I really like the spinning tree / ferris wheel.
Here's two shots from Atlanta's iconic Jackson Street Bridge, over the recently renamed "John Lewis" Freedom Parkway. Super quick DSLR scans while they were still wet, I'm impatient! Shot 10 color sheets here too including some Cinestill 800! Those have to wait.
Linhof Master Technika, Schneider 90mm f/5.6 XL wide-open and tilted, T-Max 100 shot for 2 minutes and dev'd in Pyrocat 1:1:100 for 20 minutes at 75F, semi-stand:
And this one with a Nikkor-W 135mm f/5.6. That's a helicopter coming in over the city on the upper left. I was really hoping I caught it coming all the way across as he turned north but sadly I didn't. This was a 5 mminute shot at f/13:
PS: I totally forgot my meter in the car but luckily I had a screenshot of a Michael Kenna exposure guide for night exposures and calculated back from that, then doubled it for good measure.
Cinestill 800 Sheet Film?
Results time! First, a shot from the Cinestill 800T negative, dev'd in C-41:
Results were good, which is nice since this film is a bit old now. I like the colors on the foreground but the sky was a bit too electric blue.
Now here is a shot done with some plain ol' Fuji 160S:
Foreground is a bit more reddish from the daylight color balance, but I like the sky more. An interesting comparison. Still not sure what to use this 800T on, but I do know this is the single batch they ever seemed to have made in 4x5. Too bad that. I have a hard time shooting film when it's irreplaceable. My own paralysis of analysis. I think most of what I've seen online from 800T is cityscapes like this. Or weird portraits I really don't like. Hmm...
