An UK Trip The UK trip was eventful, to start off, my film bag was scanned by the TSA at Heathrow airport. Which I was expecting based off of stories of other people and it is somewhat sad that they were not willing to listen to me or accommodate people either. Regardless, I was at least happy that they hand checked ISO 800 and above films.

Next thing you know, I set the wrong temp for my C-41 development and developed all the film at a toasty 109F. Which according to any person you ask is crazy high. Although a lot of the pictures had some interesting artafacting and color shifts. These are some good memories.

Slide Film DetourThis is a series of photos that were taken on the pacific coast on one of my vacations. My wife and I drove from Irvine CA to San Fransisco, CA in 2 days. Stopping by LA, Malibu, Santa Barbara, Morro Bay, Elephant Seals Vista point and driving through some amazing roads.
This I thought was a great oppurtunity to capture it with slide film for the almost lifelike color rendition. These scans were done on a Fuji Frontier but dont do justice to how the positives actually look.
