Kodak 400TX in OM-1

Today I'm sharing a roll of Kodak black and white 400TX that I shot in my Om-1 and scanned myself using this method here. The TX (tri-x) doesn't have quite the same contrast as the kodak t-max but since I process the photos myself, I'm not opposed to adding a little extra contrast in post! I also think the photos show a nice little collection of my happenings this first half of the year (nature, woodwork and cats :P).

Lomo 100 Colour Film in my OM1

I finally got some film developed - woohoo! I popped some 100 lomography colour film into my Olympus film camera (my OM-1).  My local film lab processed it normally and then I scanned it at home using my digital camera (you can read about that set up here).

I'm still deep in the World of making wooden stands.  At the moment it's where 80% of my time is being spent on and I couldn't be happier.  The best place to follow me with my Spirit You project is definitely on my instagram page and I'll make sure to follow you back!

 We live near some really amazing nature and I'm proud of how much adventuring we have done this first half of the year!

sunshine coast mountain climbing

Another thing (I'm not sure I have shared yet) is that almost every weekend, I've been climbing a mountain with the family.  I'm not the most fit person in the World so it's often pushed me far outside my comfort zone but it's been amazing for my health.  We don't have scales in our home but I have been getting lots of nice feedback from people that I've lost weight which has been a pleasant side effect.  A big drive for me has been looking at the issue from a long term perspective.  There's lots of health problems in my family and I'd love to be healthy and active in my 40's, 50s, 60s and beyond - wouldn't that be amazing :) 


I've also been able to maintain (proudly for almost a year now!) a daily 30 minute walk.  Even though I'm never super stoked on exercise, both the walking and climbing have been do-able for me.  People often talk about the endorphins they get from exercise, which is not something I personally experience.  The thing that has helped me commit was to incorporate something that I do enjoy alongside the exercise.  With my morning walk I listen to a podcast and with the climbing, I really love nature so that has been a big draw card! I do so much sitting on the computer during a day that it's been so positive to incorporate (even just a little bit) of physical exercise into my day :)

Although this was a colour roll of film, I thought the photo of Lowy's dog, Shanti on the log, looked super cute in black and white!

Film Photos - Converted to B&W

I have a bunch of photos (from different colour films + camera combos) which were given the black and white digital treatment :) It's a bit of a hodge-podge of sorts but the b&w helps tie them altogether!
