Grunge Birthday
From today – a shot from my Voigtländer Brillant, a TLR-like camera from the early 1930s. As you can see, the film feedl is badly damaging the emulsion. You can’t see what the side of it looks like just outside of the frame – the gears for the film counter are chewing up one edge.
I think I could fix it. But I’m not sure whether or not I want to. There’s something about this look that I kinda like.
… and this is Ilford HP5, pushed to EI 3200.
I agree. I like the look. I am surpised at how much the emulsion is scratched. It wouldn’t be worth keeping it like it is if it were simply one scratch, but as it stands, it creates a very unique look.
