The Leica Year

One Leica. One Lens. One Film. One Year.

My name is Sean. I am an amateur film photographer that lives in Seattle.

Inspired by this article and My Leica Year photoblog I decided to start this project. My photoblog here will track my progress along the way. I'll be using my Leica M4 with a 50/2 Dual Range Summicron. For film choice, I'll be shooting with Fomapan 400.

Week #47

Back in Week #22, I shot a roll of Kodak Porta 800. The reason then was because I had run out of Fomapan 400 and I only had a roll of color film to use until my next paycheck. It would appear that Week #47 has fallen under that same curse too…kinda.

After finding only a roll of Kodak Porta 800 in the fridge, I loaded it into my camera and took photos at the annual Black BBQ my buddies and I have. When I got home that night I found a roll of Fomapan 400 in my sock drawer. So I finished the Porta roll the next day and shot the roll of Fomapan that week too. I figured it would be interesting to see if nearly a year of shooting mainly b&w has either help or hinder my shooting ability of color film. I’ll let you be the judge.

Once I get the rolls back from the photolab, that is.
