Mistakes and Light Leaks
Okay, so I ended my first post about shooting on film with this photograph, indicating that I didn’t know what I was doing:
I wasn’t really being fair to myself on that one. With this photo, I was trying to shoot out the end of the roll, so I was bound to end up with at least one image like this.
I think. I’m not sure if this scenario is actually entirely avoidable or not. I’ll learn as I go!
Regardless, at this point I was just aiming and clicking in order to finish out this roll and change film in order to keep shooting. This one isn’t actually a mistake.
But my first roll had a ton of light leaks at the end of it. Take a look:
It’s my first-ever roll of film, so I’ll give myself a pass here. I didn’t replicate the problem on subsequent rolls, so I must have gotten better at this without realizing it.
But, still. Something to keep an eye on.
