Summer on black & white #02
Saturday, 14 August 2010
Thank you so much for lovely positive comments on my previous post for B&W shots! Now I can't wait to load another B&W film and start shooting more on B&W again.
The strong summer lights and shadows come out really nicely I think. I used Fuji NEOPAN 1600 Super PRESTO for these shots, the contrast came out quite strong (of course i didn't retouch any of these). If you have any good B&W films you can recommend I'd love to hear and try!
Have a lovely weekend everyone ;)
P.S. I went to this wonderful band's really fun show at a sweet little "kurashikku kissa" (classic tea house) in Asagaya with lovely Ebo-chan today. You should check out this post on Hello Sandwich!
Beautiful Hiki!

yes i think the harsh shadows and light on b&w turned out really nicely, expressing this extreme heat of tokyo!

Yes I agree with what you say! I just didn't realise that so much before I took these on b&w!
