It occurred to me that I don't think I linked these abstract night pictures anywhere. Here's something, while not high-art, appeals to me, that I never would have tried with film.
Not that the $13 a roll is a deal-breaker for expirimentation, but the time to finish the roll, run down to the store twice, wait in line...lowering that barrier to entry helps a lot.
I knew I'd shoot more, but an unexpected effect is that I delete more as well. Since it didn't take money and time to develop the shot, there's less committment to it. I'm much more likely to toss something with flaws, both because there's less investment and because I know I'll be out shooting soon again.
I still need to get more ruthless though; I'll try to keep hitting that delete button so I don't bore everyone too much.
