Thank god for kodachrome

Yeah!!!! A film so,so legendary, it had its own SONG written about it! I remember loving that song. i never felt so rich as when I would buy a "brick" of Kodachrome 64 Professional (20 whole rolls of 36 shots each! Woo-hoo!). My favorite trip with Kodachrome was to the 1986 incarnation of the Walla Walla Stampede, a big hot air balloon festival held every year in eastern Washington's gorgeous Palouse region, with rolling hills planted in gorgeous, green wheat!

 

Does Paul still pay a royalty to Kodak?

 

I'll grant you the slow speed of K25 could be a challenge at times. It's been so long ago now but I recall that K64 always seemed too contrasty and the colour rendering of K25 seemed more natural. For work I always had to deliver images fairly quickly, so it had to be E6.

 

My K25 journey was a 14 days safari to Kenya (Amboseli, Tsavo e and w) in August 1981

Kodak is now offering Kodachrome !

... the magazine, that is, not the film.

See:
Kodachrome Magazine, 2017 Issue 1 | Kodak Store

"Introducing our brand new journal for anyone who loves art, film and analog culture."

 

Remember H&W Control? It had amazingly fine grain at ASA 25, but was finicky and hard to develop.

 

I liked Kodachrome so much I made a pilgrimage to this place!

 

I have a slide, but i cant blow it up or do anything with it. It is of a train like 20 years ago,,,

Actually what year we in? Okay more than 20 years ago.,

 

I know this is a late reply for this post, but the photos in the link are amazing, I can hardly believe that these were from the World War II era from the early 1940s. I'm shocked.

 

Yes, pretty amazing. The link that Ashleykarl sent us to, the Pavel Kosenko blog, is basically a direct lift of a bunch of WW II 4x5 Kodachrome images posted on the shorpy.com blog. I recognized each image from the Shorpy.com site, which published them several years ago. Shorpy.com is a great source of restored,optimized, fantastic historical photos spanning many years.

Shorpy.com has a BUNCH of old-timey Kodachrome images. Here's just a sampling of the large-format Kodachrome images they have assembled: Shorpy.com

 

how i spent my 2018 Christmas:
