Lomography contacted me recently … asking if I could so a ‘tipster’ thingie for their festive newsletter. Well … originally I agreed to perhaps do something like a ’36 frames’ tipster entry but gave up after a while. I just couldn’t find time to really shoot 36 themes.
So I had to work on another idea and one evening while sitting in front of my computer munching chips … I thought of this. I’ll maybe post more about how I did these (though it probably ain’t hard to figure it out) later on after I finish writing a little ‘guide’ for the tipster entry. Basically all I wanted was to add some ‘snow’ scenes to whatever I shoot in the 2nd exposure. Hahaha. Not everyone of these will have ‘snow’ in them though.
I did the first exposure using my old Nikon FA and the 2nd exposure with a LC-A+. I probably screwed up in marking the first frame and thus most of the frames overlapped. Not too bad a mistake I guess. I kinda love the mad overlaps. It is also the first time I’m trying out Fujichrome MS 10/1000.
To be honest … I wasn’t at all confident many of these will turn out fine. I was very worried about over-exposing them because I didn’t compensate the exposure while shooting the 2nd round. Guess I was a bit lucky this time.
I didn’t have much time to really shoot the 2nd exposures because I have only this weekend to complete these. Most of the shots here were taken yesterday and you’ll even see one or two of them having scenes from the sunrise when I woke up at 5am to go ‘sun chasing’ again. 😀
My sunrise shooting buddy. Luckily I caught him shooting me!
Maybe I’ll print some of these using my postcard printer and send them out to my buddies overseas! Hahaha!
I think I’ve been doing way too many doubles recently. I’ve got 3 rolls on the way to Japan for a doubles collaboration and still preparing 2 rolls to be sent to Paris soon. Perhaps I’ll take a short break from doubles after those rolls and see if I can used to shooting single exposures. Hmm …
