64 weeks on Kodachrome 64: A brief update
Of late I've been busy with a number of projects and indeed on leave for a week or so, hence the rather quiet nature of this blog.
I thought I'd start back with a brief update on my Kodachrome 64 project. Some of you may remember that last year I began to post a picture each day on Flickr shot on Kodachrome as a farewell to the long-lived film.
You can read more about the project in my original post.
Well, I have now reached day 185 with another 261 to go until the end of the year. The latest photo can be seen at the top of the page and is typical of many of those in the series.
Kodachrome has been around for 75 years and millions of moments have been preserved on its emulsion. Indeed it's the film's longevity and stability that made it such a favourite.
The aim of the series is to capture everyday scenes and I have no desire to use it as a visual diary but more a way of seeing the world once more in those Kodachrome colours, which are in fact fairly subdued, and not as bright as you might expect. The project is perhaps a little self indulgent, but it has brought a freedom to take pictures for their own sake.
These small personal moments and projects intrigue me, why did I choose to photograph that in that way at that moment? How would someone else have done it?
On that note, and as I have mentioned before, I'm keen to hear from anyone else out there undertaking a photographic project with a view to exploring some of them in this blog, so do drop me a line via e-mail or comment below.
