35































Whenever I'm feeling a little overwhelmed, I'll sometimes grab my bike and my Dad's old 35mm Canon AE-1 and just ride around, stop by some friends houses, grab a bite and shoot some film along the way. Or I'll just decide in the beginning of the day when I wake up that I want to carry my camera with me.
From shooting digital for some time, there's something really special about film. I even like the really crappy pictures I take for some reason. There's just things strange nostalgic/intimate quality about it that I love. Plus its like Christmas when you go to pick it up after being developed. Just thought I would share.

Really nice photos, man. Film does have a quality that's hard to get in digital shots. And "errors" that show up when using older cameras adds a whole new level of interest. Like that orange stripe running down the middle of these...
