Lago Vista on Film

Yes, there's "Hard to Kill", "Alligator 2" and probably a few others, but what I'm talking about here is my partial return to shooting photographs on film after working exclusively with digital cameras for the past four years.

While I still love the immediacy, convenience and freedom of shooting digital, I have to admit there's something special about the look of film, especially in its grainy black and white version like the Tri-X 400 that the photo above was taken with.

Fortunately, I never parted with my old film camera; in fact it's the same Pentax that I received as a High School graduation present back around the time when the Lago Vista was brand new.

Very nice. From this angle the building's reminiscent of the Guggenheim.
