So I and my Smena 8 finally did some pictures together

[mmaria]

I got the scans yesterday. Idk what film was this...either Fujicolor c200 or Superia... that's available to me.

I don't know what I expected from Smena, not much for sure but I'll be taking it with me more often definitely because, well, love.

(I really have troubles with developing films, in terms of finding someone... the photo-shops which do developing, do lousy job and the guy who develops good is extremely judgmental, towards me using Smena and "wasting my money and films on it", towards everyone who "waste exposures" and "don't think about settings" so I have to put up with his monologue about perfect quality and his patronizing every time I contact him. The way he talked to me and was "teaching" me about exposing on snow for a building etc made me think that I completely ruined these films...
Oh my... what I've just said... I don't need to put up with his behavior. I need to start learning developing myself and get what I need)

Anyway... I needed to yell a bit... sorry and thank you!

Here are few scans from one of the films, I'll post another later. Didn't do anything to them in terms of editing.

I loooooove #2 and #5. They're all very dreamy, but those two stand out as being both dreamy and...I want to say "sharp" but I don't necessarily mean that in terms of pixels or resolution. I mean they remind me of those scenes that remain sharp even in memories or dreams, especially #2. You can feel the sharpness of cold in the air that makes you very very alert, and the blinding sun on the snow is so particular to that kind of crystal clear winter day. And #5 is like a fairy tale.

The first one with ghost boy is cool, too - very M. Night Shyamalan I like the low angle and all the trees swooping up in those verticals.
