Portland On Portra
Portra and Ektar, should I say. Two of my favorite types of color negative came along with me on my recent road trip. Here are the highlights, starting with the roll of Portra 800:
That’s it for the roll of Portra. The following scans are all Ektar:
After following their work in one way or another for around four years, we had the pleasure of meeting the incredibly talented artist and blogger duo Jade and Cory. Suki wasn’t in the picture taking mood at the time, apparently.
Running into other Shibas is always fun. Top Left: Misaki the Shiba
Ok, from this point down, we’re no longer in Portland. Please excuse the misleading title of this post. =)

Awesome set of photos man! Love these scans and the colors. And you got to meet Jade and Cory! That’s so cool. 🙂 Bridge looks great, retro glam style and all. Hope to see these prints up on the wall when we visit soon!

Man you guys looked like you had a blast! Awesome shots… that 50mm f1.4 summilux is incredible. So sharp, and that bokeh… 😀

Thanks! Despite the fact that it weighs a ton, I do love that lens =)

Fantastic shots, honies! I love how different the two types of film are. I’m still trying to figure out which roll was my favorite. But my favorite shots are of all the cute doggies, of course!!

Thank you! In this case I really like how the Portra turned out. Love the way it responds to overexposure!
