Night Lights

Regardless of the ISO or the steady hand required, the nature of night photography demands more technique and focus for an enthusiast like me; however, I enjoyed reflecting on those moments while building this album for my site.

Field Notes:

There are two things here that I’m in love with: my wife and CineStill 800T (well, maybe three, as a Godzilla fan). This film gives me a great sense of satisfaction. The halation effect, created by removing the remjet layer, opens the door for experimentation that I’m still a bit shy to try, but I still enjoy it a lot. Hopefully, that film stock remains available for years to come; there is so much more I look forward to capturing with it.
