Bought an old range finder on ebay (Taron PR). Never really done any kind of real photography in my life but I really enjoyed it.

I don't have a light meter so I was kinda guessing the whole time. Overall conditions were cloudy and somewhat foggy at times. Location is the New River Trail in Virginia.

These are the best of the bracketed shots. Film is that ISO 400 Fuji Xtra that I picked up at Walmart.

I'm going to go out to the various trails around my area this year and dabble a bit more. Any tips and criticisms would be greatly appreciated. I really would like to get better.

I don't know how you managed to make superia 400 to look so bad... like maybe it's because of the lens but usually nature pictures are like "meh they're alright I guess" but this shit here...?

This looks like somebody took those pictures with a 2mp handy camera

Can you post something similar to how they "should" have come out?

Excuse the snapshit.
Usually greens would look a lot better. and the light brown wouldn't be so washed out.

Shooting colour in fog isn't too appealing usually. There may be a little element of overexposure or the processing scanner auto exposed the shots leading to this look. Usually people at photo labs won't correct your scans, they don't know what you're going for so everything is full auto.

That's a terrible comparison. The lighting and scenery in OP's photos is totally different.

I thought that was obvious so I didn't mention it. That's why I left it simply at >shooting colour in fog isn't too appealing usually.
>>2806076
It can also be the scanner. Unless the lab technician tried to adjust each shot, it tries to auto expose each frame.

A few are blown but these are mostly good.

I'd be really interested in seeing what these actually look like with a proper scan.
