Description This was taken some months ago in the botanical gardens.

The lovely Fruzsi (~peachpatrol ) in the setting sun. The light was fading and we tried to make use of whatever was left of it. I underexposed some of this film due to shooting shot after shot a bit too quickly... it's cross-processed AND expired, so it needs a lot of light. So a fair few shots just didn't turn out, but this is one I'm happy with

Nikon FM2 + Kodak Ektachrome 160T expired in '97 (thank you =DalaiHarma for the donation ) = cross-processed.

The dark lighting is just absolutely beautiful.
This would not have worked on digital.

Thanks!
It's pretty much the only shot where the underexposure actually looked alright.
I'm glad you like it

youre welcome. actually, if you would have pushed the film when developed i wonder how it would've looked like. just curious..

Wait, I don't think I quite understand what you mean... you mean editing afterwards on photoshop? Or taking the pictures with a different ISO setting to what the film actually is? Sorry, I'm a little confused

i just meant that it would have been possible to leave the film a bit longer in developer but apparently you didnt knew it was underexposed in the first place, so sorry about that comment.

Ohh, yeah. Well I can't control that seeing as I don't process the film myself... I only do b&w processing & printing myself

yes, of course
but actually, ive been thinking of pushing normal negatives, like underexposing them 3-4 stops and then push them. At least it would be interesting to try with consumer films. Should result huge contrast

Yeah that would be an interesting experiment to try..
