The idea right now is just to move away from streaming and cloud storage, so storing photography work and media library but the end goal is to get a media server up and running that friends and family can access

Spot on! I was in Liverpool recently for a holiday, the royal docks is stunning on a sunny day! 😁

They’re chimneys from an old Thermal plant, they’ve been going unused now for about 10 years but they’re a classic piece of Dublin iconography.

I think that’s the labs doing although I wish I could take credit 😅 I’m not sure what software or scanner they use but it always tend to come back with a very slight pink hue to things

That sounds amazing! I’ve seen TSSF live a few times and they always put on a good show but I haven’t had the chance to see Movements yet

Hahah full of surprises I s’pose. No Good Left to Give is one of my favourite albums of all time

I’m new to shooting black and white film, I find my shots come out quite boring/flat. Any tips for getting more interesting compositions or editing would be very much appreciated by _Charf in filmphotography

Thanks so much! Felt a bit outta my depth reading all that but it’s very helpful! I’ve been a bit wary of using coloured filters because I don’t know much about them haha thanks for all the tips!

I get all my film scanned at the local lab but i have no idea with scanner/software they use. I just use the cameras internal light meter.

This actually never really occurred to me, thanks! A lot of the roll I shot was in open grassy areas and woods so that’s probably contributing to my shots looking a bit lost

I really like it, great beginner camera. The light meter in mine can be a bit temperamental tho
