Grainy

Lets discuss 800 speed film...better yet the science behind it. When you go into dark places and a flash isn't available you should use higher speed film, a film's speed is the measure of sensitivity to light and how quick the silver halides react. Higher speed = less light. The silver halide is what you see when film looks "grainy" or a bit fuzzy for lack of a better term. When film is expired, the silver halides start to lose their value and increase in "happy accidents" which is pretty much what I strive for.

This roll was my first 800 ISO and the pictures turned out okay, not my favorite but artsy enough to satiate that need. You will notice in darker situations the grain is more apparent because I like to think they had to work harder. :) Enjoy!

 Rob J'ness and I went to Summerfest in Orem last week

 I hang with them a lot.

 We (Rob & J'ness) had a BBQ with our friend Lauren In West Jordan who just gave birth to this cute thing below, her name is Alison and she's a gem. I liked to smell her head! Om nom nom nom BABIES!!!

 Lauren's husband is crafty!

 My good friend KayCee got married Saturday and I went to her reception in West Jordan, as I pulled up her bridal party was decking out her car with the traditional sexual innuendos all in good fun of course.

 Isn't Kim just GORGEOUS!

 I'm in love with this crape paper blowing around in the wind!

 The culprits! The bride wasn't too impressed, but she didn't know at the time it was some of her best friends pulling the prank.

 Here is the grainy parts, the reception had low lights and cute little girls willing to dance among bubbles, how could I not partake!?

 I love this one

 This one too!

 KayCee!

 This one was so grainy I had to flip it to BW so you can at least see some value.

Well folks that's it! I think I really like the grain, I may even go higher with the film speed. If this 800 looks like that, imagine what 3600 ISO can do!
