Brian Havican Photography
frame #23; the Salon
The streets of Milwaukee WI USA. Captured end of August 2018, on W Lincoln Av, late afternoon as the sun was blazing but lowering in the western sky. This was shot on Kodak TMax 100 in Nikon FE 50mm f2. Development was in Ardox Rodinal, a semi-stand method for 60min with x2 rolls souping together (ISO was mixed in the two, a run and gun approach was taken as I looked for scenes and great subjects to capture). Film was 'scanned' on iPhone 8 for the quick preview, proper scans will follow in short order.
There are so many interesting stores, streets and people on any given day. It comes down to getting out there and finding the right light, the right shadows, the right scene and the right subject. Don't overthink a shot, look at the lines, the light, look at the story developing. Let your imagination run and let the camera do the work. It works out pretty good sometimes.
