These are about 5 years old but I never really did anything with them. I saw them while going through some old photos the other day and thought I'd finally share them.
I was going for a sort of neo-soviet aesthetic if that makes any sense. like a stark, utilitarian, and geometrically-appealing reimagining of my city.

very nice, what film?
>>2796123
Thank you. Most of them were taken on some crap $2/roll Fuji C200, and the rest were taken on Portra 400.
I think these were taken during the month I was having scanner issues because they were all cheap drugstore scans.

I did suspect portra on a few, portra seems to be one smooth looking film, im gon get me a roll
>>2796148
Yeah you really can't beat it. It's gotten pretty expensive lately though so I don't really use it anymore unless I'm doing some serious shooting.
But honestly only like 3 or 4 of these were taken on Portra. There's a good chance the ones you like were on the Fuji C200 which was the cheapest film I could find.

sweet, look good anyway
>>2796182
Thanks, yeah I'm really impressed with how that film came out. Really gave me the aesthetic I was looking for with these pics.
>>2796419
what camera did you use? not that it matters, just simply wondering
>>2796437
These were all shot on a Leica M6 with a Zeiss Biogon 35/2 lens.
>>2796443
did you crop too small? some of these look kinda crappy.
>>2796443
sheiiiiiit
what a comfy thread
>>2796447
These were cheap drug store scans, and they were shot and processed back in 2011 when times were simpler and 800px was a perfectly acceptable size for web images.
>>2796448
Yeah, I miss that camera big time. Best 35mm setup I've ever used. They hold their value so well too, I bought the body for $1200 and the lens for $800, then sold them together a couple years later for $2000. Basically rented it for 2 years for free. I'd pick up another one in a heartbeat but I probably wouldn't use it enough to justify it.
I like these and I think you got the "soviet" look down pretty well. Chill on the vertical correction on a few of them; they are playing mind tricks on me.
>>2796658
>Chill on the vertical correction on a few of them; they are playing mind tricks on me.
What ever do you mean..
Hah no but seriously when shooting architecture I can't not correct verticals. I shot for years with an old Nikkor shift lens on my SLR and would use it to correct every vertical I shot, and the Zeiss Biogon lens is so remarkably distortion-free it's literally begging to be perspective corrected.
And thanks for the kind words.
>>2796485
You too man, thanks. I love comfy pics so I'm glad you could find these to be comfy.

You mean that you don't actually know what you're doing and fuck up correcting the verticals.
>>2796664
No problem with correcting them, but tone it down a bit. That photo is a perfect example. The top of the building looks like it's flaring out. Not a natural look. I do correct verticals too, but I go for a half-way between where I started and perfectly vertical look.
>>2796685
They aren't. At all. Shit looks like it was drawn by Dr. Seuss.
>>2796685
Perfectly straight does not look natural from this viewing angle (sitting 3' away from a computer monitor). That is all.
>>2796689
No, they aren't vertical. They're keystoned with the bottoms pulled together and the tops pulled apart.
>>2796694
Which one are you referring to?
>>2796698
I stopped going through them because my eyes started hurting:
>>2796051

>>2796055
>>2796057
>>2796062
>>2796065
>>2796067
>>2796069
>>2796081
>>2796084
Are all fatter at the top than at the bottom (possibly some of the remaining ones). What kind of corrections are you doing...like what tools are you using?
>>2796063
That's my go-to liquor store. Weird seeing it on here.
>>2796730
not im but its c200. not neutral at all, the toning is very prominent, hard to "edit it" out. ive shot the same film and the colors are pretty similar, huge magenta/pink midtones and those special fuji greens.
>>2796701
Pull those into PS and overlay some grid lines on them, I edited them like 5 years ago but I'm pretty sure they're all perfectly vertical.
>>2796778
Thanks man.
>>2796730
Yeah, Fuji C200. It's really cheap but great if you're going for this sort of look. I don't know if I have any full res scans though so I can't say what the overall resolution is like or how well they print.
>>2796833
>Pull those into PS and overlay some grid lines on them, I edited them like 5 years ago but I'm pretty sure they're all perfectly vertical.
Ah, so you don't have any clue what you're doing. That's why it's fucked up.
Study perspective some friend.
>>2796485
>Brutalism
>comfy
Pick one.
>>2796852
I give up. Now I just agree with this guy.
>>2796881
The tl;dr is that just making lines parallel isn't all you need to do to correct verticals. You have to take into account the vanishing point(s) for a given image and use that to determine which lines should be parallel to each other because just throwing random lines parallel, you might be choosing the wrong ones and inserting other distortions.
>>2796892
fuck off autismo
>>2796896
>calling someone else "autismo" in a thread where someone said that they can't go without attempting to correct verticals of a building
Cry a little harder.

I'm beginning to get the impression that you actually have no idea what you're talking about.
