YES!!! That is the biggest difference I see.. My joint look like I took a clear pic, regular shyt... These guys look like they are professional photographers.. And it's all about that clean smoothing edit and damn near fake (not a diss) look

Man coming in here makes me realize how much I miss being behind the camera. I had one shoot with a model before everything popped off, and a lot more lined up into the summer. That's all a wrap though. I did have one model who was still down, and she's posting new stuff on IG. But she's in Manhattan and I'm in NJ, so I just said I'm good. Just as I was getting the hang of film photography and developing my own shyt too:wow:

Nah, no excuses. You can still go outside and shoot, and continue to practice developing your shyt.

I ain't for it

My plan was to go to the parks and reservations here. At least do my nature photography thing especially since I haven't done that in a while. But NJ closed them. I also need more chemicals. Cinestill is out. B&H and Adorama is on backorder, and they can't ship the liquid chemicals. I also got this motion picture film and I don't really want to waste it on any old thing.

These are some images I took during the week of Thanksgiving last year. They're taken on Cinestill 50D (The ones with the harsh red highlights) and Vision3 500T film. The Cinestill is also Vision3 film, but the carbon backing is removed, which causes the red highlights. Everything was developed and scanned at home by me.
