Frugal Film Project 2024 - April

For this chapter of the Frugal Film Project I've travelled across the border. The Frugal Film Project - you know, that project where you use a film camera and lens that cost you less than $ 75 and shoot a roll of affordable film each month just to show that you don't need expensive stuff to get great photo's - has seen a rise in participants in the last few months, the community is now 556 photographers strong. It is really fun to participate and to see the photo's other participants have taken.

April saw me taking photo's at the Flugausstellung Peter Junior located at the Haberberg 1 in Hermeskeil, Germany. This aviation museum, established in 1973, has a collection of more than 100 aircraft and is well worth a visit. I brought my Canon EOS 1000N fitted with a 25-85mm lens and loaded a roll of Agfaphoto APX 100. As usual, I've developed the roll at home using Adonal developer and scanned the negatives with an Epson V850.

  1. Great black and white photography of worthy subjects. Love the contrast in this series, and the hint of grain.
