Photography Matters Ep 18 – Portland, Oregon and Traveling with Film

by

Portland, Oregon… probably my favorite city I’ve ever lived in… in spite of the rain. I got a chance to fly up to Portland for a few days last week. Before the trip I kind of went back and forth, trying to decide on if I should take a film camera or just make things easier and shoot digital on this trip. I did end up taking a film camera, and man, I’m so glad I did.

A Few Shots from My Trip

I took my Leica M6, Summicron 35mm lens and shot all Fujifilm ACROS while I was there, all pushed to 400. Man, I will miss this film so much.

My daughter, Celeste, standing in front of the apartment building I mentioned in the podcast. My old apartment was the one on the third floor with the fire escape and the open window…. great place!

Just Cool…

Steel Bridge, opened in 1912 – see, so many different angles to shoot these bridges… I’d never get bored.
Hawthorne Bridge, opened in 1910 – I used to ride my bike over this bridge all the time.
