When developing old-fashioned photographic lm,
the bleach bath process step can be omitted.
The photos have faded colours, high contrasts
and, especially with metallic materials,

Search for subjects with high-contrast light.
Use shorter focal lengths. Hold the camera
at a slight angle.

taken in drizzle or cloudy weather become
more interesting and have more impact.
Even subjects such as exciting clouds
or colourful autumn leaves are given
a little more “drama”.
Shoot some photos in the rain. Look for
interesting structures. Try setting one f-stop
