I know a few of you have been interested in a side challenge shooting a roll/week. Let's make it December (and January?).
I'm open for suggestions to give it some framework/limitations to stretch ourselves. Maybe a weekly photo essay/visual narrative? I know we have the film thread but a fresh, time limited, thread is useful and may grab a few new analog suckers.
If we go with the essay/visual narrative theme, I would like to see everyone contribute some ideas, or prompts, upfront. That way it can sink in and give everybody time to fit it in to the next 4-8 weeks.
analogue suckers taste great, like Nietzsche's lambs. But I've always toyed with the idea to enter dpc challenges in film rather than digital. Give me rules to bend, only it has to be in b&w, that I have control over.
Lovely idea, however no go for me during December/January. Too busy at the weekends in December and during the week is too chaotic (not to mention dark!) I'll watch with great interest though.
OK, I like a challenge Ben. I'll do my best to join in. Although it's -8C (17F) and snowing horizontally right now, so the motivation for going outside to shoot is missing at the moment:)
Just the other day a little Pentax 928, complete with manual, winked at me in a thrift shop. 5 little ones. Automatic everything almost, against all my lately acquired principles, but it can do double exposures. Actually multiple exposures but it warns against overexposure in all such cases with no remedial recourse.
Please count me in as well. Even if I have no real idea how to do a proper photo essay. I've got a ton of film cameras here that I need to get going and tested, so this will be good motivation.
