I Take a Da Picture

Here is the first of many film dumps to come. I usually try to post what camera and lens combo I use and everything, but for these, I'm just gonna assume what film I used because I just don't remember what camera I was using or the settings. Once my stockpile of "dump" film is done, I'll do my best to record the camera and lens combo, along with what film I shot! But nevertheless, here's film dump #1!

Went out with my homie Jakob to join him on a photowalk and a trip to Dexter's Camera in Ventura,CA to drop off and pick up some film. I brought the Fujifilm S1 Pro with me again today, It's starting to be my main camera that I gravitate to in my collection now! The weird "Frankenstien" camera that it is, is just so much fun to use! It's based off a film body and just has a sensor and everything like a dslr. It's honestly so much fun to use. But here's some black and white flicks that I got from the day.

So I took a little trip up to Solvang, CA with my friend to go pick up a Nikon EM from a Facebook Marketplace listing. I thought that this would be a great time to redeem myself for taking pictures in Solvang. In the past I've tried to take photos in Solvang but nothing really stood out to me, all kind of meh. But for this little photowalk while I wait to meet up with the FB Marketplace guy, I felt like I've somewhat redeemed myself. I'll be back here again sometime further in the Summer to get even more pictures, but what I so far, I'm proud of. I never did get that Nikon EM, the guy never texted me back.

From a couple photo walks with one of my homies Jakob on Sterns Warf in Santa Barbara and around town in Carpinteria. Not really looking for anything specific to take pics of, but mainly just taking pictures of things that looks nice. I haven't posted these on any of my socials so felt like posting them here felt like a good place to take them.
