Shot these on #ifordhp5plus400 film with my #canonae1 and new gift a #helios 44-2 58mm f/2 (vintage Soviet manual-focus lens famous for its distinctive "swirly" background bokeh). Gotta say I was really happy with the results.
I developed the film with #ilfordsimplicity chemicals, It's been years since I last developed a b&w film and I'd forgotten how much fun it was! Can't wait to try the helios on colour film next, best present ever... Thank you 😃🎁

Last photo from this grainy expired roll of Kodak Ultramax. The Smallpox Hospital is at the southern tip of Roosevelt Island, while the lighthouse and these metal spheres are at the north. After that, I went back to Queens, rode the Astoria loop, and took the Triboro Bridge back to Manhattan. #nyc #cycling #bikes #publicart #grainisgood #filmphotography #analogphotography #believeinfilm #filmisnotdead #expiredfilm #35mm #canonae1 #darktable #selfportrait

Cherry blossoms on Roosevelt Island, April 17; by the time I approached Roosevelt Island, the rain stopped. #nyc #spring #flowers #cherryblossom #industrial #reflection #bikes #bloomscrolling #filmphotography #analogphotography #believeinfilm #filmisnotdead #expiredfilm #35mm #canonae1 #darktable

Then I went to Roosevelt Island. The only way to bike there is this lift bridge. Expired Kodak Ultramax #nyc #architecture #bridge #eastriver #industrial #bikes #filmphotography #analogphotography #believeinfilm #filmisnotdead #expiredfilm #35mm #canonae1 #darktable

Expired Kodak Ultramax. After Williamsburg, I went to LIC, when a sudden rainstorm hit, so I put my vintage camera away. When I got further north, around Queensboro Bridge, the rain subsided. #nyc #rain #streetphotography #cycling #bikes #reflection #industrial #architecture #filmphotography #believeinfilm #filmisnotdead #analogphotography #darktable #canonae1 #35mm

From my trip to Brooklyn on April 17, around Williamsburg. Expired Kodak Ultramax, no idea when it expired so I overexposed 2 stops, rating it EI 100. Still, the negatives were a bit thin. #nyc #skyline #industrial #schoolbus #bikes #streetphotography #darktable #filmphotography #analogphotography #believeinfilm #filmisnotdead #expiredfilm #35mm #canonae1
