This is part 2 (of 2) of my photos from Karpathos, Greece, you can read part one here. Although our stay was short, I really enjoyed my morning rounds with my cameras. Of course I enjoyed the snorkelling too, but that is a different story. In the previous post I shared my photos with the sea views, this is all about the things you see on land.
Some churches:
A few images (or quite a few) from our hotel:
All film photos were developed and scanned by AG photolab.
Thanks for reading!
Nice light in these shots!
Thanks!
I can’t wait until the kids are big enough and we can start visiting all the islands!
I can imagine, specifically if your wife is Greek. It is beautiful there, and very nice people too!
I have been moving back and forth and looking at your film shots vs the digital shots. Let me say that your images are lovely and inspiring even. I asked my wife to look at them with the idea of which images would she feel that she could more readily walk into the scene and she (as did I) chose the film shots. There is just this something about film. And yet I am also awed by the digital work also. I enjoy your work immensely. Your work (to me) has a certain cinema quality.
Thanks Hugh, that means a lot to me. I (often) prefer the film shots too, but I am not sure if that is because I had to wait longer, and the extra effort that was involved. Simply put, I don’t know if I can be objective about it. But digital is very convenient, so I am not quitting my m240.
To shoot with Ektar you need meter very precisely. Portra has more headroom, so easy to shoot.
Thanks for your comment. I have read that it needs more precise metering, but to me the exposure looks fine. But it is probably easier with Portra.
