X-processed Sensia @ the TB Hospital

for Wastefulspace….. ;)  

X-processed fuji film, shot at an abandoned Sanatarium/converted nursing home/police training building.  You can see in the first hallway shot, I “color corrected”.  X-processing gives a definite different feel to things, the contrast gets wicked out of control though, I’m not really sure it’s worth “wasting” the film to experiment, but one never knows what they’ll like if they never try, right?

Finally, quality TV programming!

Ovation TV, a cable art channel, will be running a week long schedule of photography related programs and documentaries.  I’ve seen some of the shows before, and have already set the DVR to record the episodes so I don’t miss anything.  Check it out if you can, here’s the programming schedule.

Along the same vein of ramblings, I’d like to add I watched the movie Infamous a couple weeks ago and was really taken by the cinematography.  The movie itself is about Truman Capote’s writing of In Cold Blood, shot partly on the Kansas plains, the compostitions and visual elements are simple clean and elegantSome of the other movies I’ve seen that appeal to me visually, Road to Perdition, Shawshank Redemption, and Platoon.  If anyone would like to suggest visually appealing or photography related programming, I’d love to hear them.
