@gerryflap So I actually just figured out my issue. A lot of my photos have a sort of cast over them. I used rgb curve to set the black point (?) in darktable

@acockworkorange Thanks, yeah I’m just not at home at the moment and often don’t feel like digging through my neg binder

@gerryflap I manually invert the negatives with Darktable and adjust to achieve a natural color balance. Unfortunately for me I’m not very good at it, and oftentimes I go back to images and adjust and realize “wow that was incredibly blue this whole time.” This very well could be one of those cases

@CaptainKickass It’s great. So stripped down and simple. I completely get why it was the go-to for photography students to learn about the exposure triangle

@Brussels5728 @analog No, thank you! makes me happy to see someone local enjoying them

@ianovic69 @analog

Thanks!! I’m definitely no photographer, I just like learning about and using old cameras, and the process/magic of shooting film.

Rollei 35 is probably my most interesting camera. I got it so that I could put it in my pocket while downhill skiing and take shots of the mountain/my friends.

I’ve got a Yashica Mat LM that was my dad’s, and his dad’s before him, and that’s been fun to mess around with. I’ve also got a Pentax K1000 that I started shooting film with!

@Brussels5728 @analog Hah! I’d say knowing it’s Manchester is impressive in itself.

This is a lot right off of Union Street just before the Boys and Girls Club going South, next to a nail salon and outreach center.

@ianovic69 @analog unfortunately I can’t tell you much about the camera settings, as I didn’t write them down when I took the photo. I used a light meter on my phone to get a proper exposure of the furniture. I develop at home in a Paterson tank and I DSLR scan with an Olympus em10 Mk4 with a 60mm macro. Then I convert to a positive with negative lab pro. I don’t do much adjusting after that, as Im less concerned about how my scans look as opposed to prints.
