C.London52w6 - Artificial Light
From the C.London website: "Now I know not everyone has studio lights or even an on camera flash. But guess what, artificial light is any light that isn’t natural. That could be your desk lamp, the neons of your local bodega, street lights, anything that isn’t that fiery ball of gas in the sky. For this challenge I’d like you to focus on artificial light you can have some control over, however."
This week was another opportunity to experiment with my new wireless off-camera flash and miscellaneous accessories I bought with it. Thanks to @vmpas_photography, I was inspired to photograph my 40 year old Minolta film SLR. I love all the dials, color and markings on the body & lens. I even found some 20 year old expired film to incorporate into the image.
When purchasing my mirrorless system a year ago, I considered the Fuji line because it most closely resembles these cameras of old. However, for street photography, I went with the Sony system due to their amazing eye tracking/autofocus technology. So to get my nostalgia fix, I’ll just have to shoot the dozen rolls of expired film that I’ve uncovered.
