Forgotten, but not gone
With film photography there is a natural delay between making an image and seeing the result. This process is for me even longer with colour films as I try to make efficient use of the chemicals by saving up a bunch and processing them all in one go. However sometimes things happen that cause the process to take even longer... and this is one of those times. These images are part of the series that I posted in September, beginning with "Returns and surprises" and were made on a hike through Glarus that I did with a mate back in May. It turns out that I had loaded one more roll of film into the camera, made some images and then forgot about the half-finished roll in the camera for about 6 months. That's some delayed gratification!
It was also fun to see my first unintended double exposure, which I find both cool and creepy simultaneously. I'm still not sure how I managed that one, but I was pretty exhausted by the time we got back down...
Committed to Kodak Ektar 100 using a Rolleicord va. Developed with a C-41 kit from Cinestill and digitised with a digital camera and macro lens. Positive conversion, colour balance and contrast done with Negative Lab Pro. Dust removal and further contrast adjustment in Photoshop.
