expired kodak professional ultracolor film
holga 120gn

i was working from an 8x8 enlargement for this scan. i loved the way the natural earth tones (grays, peaches, greens, and blues) came out as a result of using expired film. i also loved the silky smooth quality of the water washing back from the sand and of the the movement of clouds and water in general. i'm a sucker for the beauty of film. with a toy camera, it can deliver such painterly subtlety.

if i were a painter...

thanks for your comments and for taking the time to view! :heart:
