A favourite film pic from 2014?

[ChrisR]

It's been a bit quiet round here lately, with all the festivities. What about a thread where we each post a film photo we really like, taken in 2014? Maybe there's one of these elsewhere on TP, but I haven't seen it.

I realise I should have chosen one to act as starter, but I haven't yet, so, whadya think?

Sounds like a plan

 

[RaglanSurf]

Great idea Chris

 

[Jao]

Chris a great idea!

 

[pjm1]

Sounds super... I only have 5 to choose from so mine will be easy!

I'll start the ball rolling with this shot of my parents in our garden. I only started home developing this year - and this was from my first roll. FP4 on the Fuji GS645S.

 

[wickerman]

This one for me. There are plenty of similar shots around but I like it.

I've got a poppy shot too.....difficult to choose your favourite shot over a year, but I found this shot interesting in thinking how a famous photographer would have taken it and thought it might be something like this:-

 

[Nguss]

Not many this year, so this one from January probably

This is my favourite photo of the year, taken in Barcelona on Portra 400 on a C220. It was quite busy so I had to wait ages to get a photo where there was no one in it, but then this couple snuck in without me realising. I think I prefer it with them in the shot though!

Looking forward to taking loads more in 2015!!

2014 has been quite a year for me; I've moved 200 miles away and have changed jobs completely. I've also been shooting much more film!

Here's a fave from this year.

I'm sure many of you have seen it before, it's dear little Nellie

[TheBigYin]

think it's a great idea, but sadly, I've not shot a thing on film all year (barely anything on figital even apart from the odd record shot of bike rides with the cameraphone)

Look forward to seeing all your shots though

 

[Kevin Allan]

I don't expect this to be to everyone's taste but I think this is my favourite

Pentax MX and Rollei RPX100 film

Excellent idea for a thread Chris. I've shot quite a bit of film this year on various cameras but I think my favourite one is probably this one;

First Days at School by Steve Lloyd, on Flickr

First day at 'Big School' for Chloe and big brother Jake going into Year 3.

Cheers

Hard to choose a favourite, I am pleased to have shot quiet a lot of film in 2014, in what has been one of the busiest years of my career. Indeed film cameras, film and the smell of fixer have helped maintain a degree of sanity!!

Summit of Snowdon, Voigtlander Bessa, 15mm Heliar, TMAX 100, LC29- sheer escapism in every sense!

 

[pjm1]

Awesome shot, Adrian. Looks great up there (for such a small hill )

Not much chance of me dragging my film camera up the munros - afraid it's digital up there for me

 

[joxby]

Fantastic picture Jao, shame they aren't looking at the camera but it'd still make a fab print

S'like taking powdered soup instead of roast beef and yorks pudding up a mountain..

To be fair, we do eat fairly decent nosh up there: I've made a dutch oven to cook a lasagne before and I already have plans in motion to construct a wood fired pizza oven at one particular site we've visited previously Getting the fire started and me preparing dinner is one of the highlights of our trips usually!

But the Mamiya is just a touch too heavy and I'm not yet confident enough with it to drag it up there... maybe one day!

 

[joxby]

Back on track......it feels like I haven't shot anything, but I have.
Not drowning in an avalanche of scans at year end is odd, like you went out and forgot to take your phone.....or something.
Anyway, I like this one from this year.

I'm with Joxby, I'd LOVE to see that printed! Absolutely superb.

Nice idea for a thread too. I have 5 rolls of Kodak Vision3 to get devved and a couple of rolls of 120 as well, once they're done and I know what's on 'em I'll try find something to post.

Probably this one:

My first use of Velvia, on my beloved Xpan bought this year, on a great holiday biking to Berlin and back.

 

[VirtualAdept]

I think for me it absolutely has to be this one...

Just vista in some rather well past prime home dev kit. But I love it.

 

[ChrisR]

Some fabulous pics, folks. I particularly liked that first one, of Dave's parents. I don't aspire to anything as good, but it reminded me of this pic of my wife and younger daughter, in Bath earlier this year. EDIT: Might be better without the dark glasses, but wearing them is probably what allowed them to agree to be photographed, my family seldom do. Taken with a Pentax MX on Reala 100 (shot at 80), which I think is my absolute favourite film!

 

[Robclarke]

Probably this. Mamiya RZ, Fuji pro 400 H

Hard to pick for me, but I'd chose this one:


Lisbon. Minolta X700 & Minolta MD 50mm f/1.7 lens.

Ta,

[osh]

This one for me (Ektar 100, shot with a Mamiya 7ii and 43mm lens). Happy New Year everyone!

A friendly bookshop owner allowed me to set up the RZ67 on his premises and re arrange a book or two to get this shot......."Please keep noise to a minimum so as not to disturb customers" he said. ....... RZ67 mirror slap equates to "minimal noise"??
Yeah right!

Probably this one for me. Its a simple shot but it came out exactly as I envisaged it without hardly any processing.

[RaglanSurf]

Tis a thing of beauty Mr Snap.

 

[Andysnap]

Cheers matey, one of the few I'm proud of.

 

[simon ess]

Excellent idea for a thread. I'm not getting any photography done at the moment, having just moved house.

I think this is my favourite from last year. Nikon F80 with a Tokina 11-16 @ 16mm. T-Max 400.

[robhooley167]

Sadly I wasn't able to get much film shot last year, hopefully it will be better this year though.
Photo wise, probably this one.

[abdoujaparov]

Hopefully the best shot I took in 2014 is on a roll of 120 Portra I still haven't had developed yet. Of the ones I have developed, I think it's this one.

Cool pic @simon ess looks like a fun road too!

 

[Marvin d martian]

Mine would have to be this one, not printed it yet, but need to do so this year.
