I actually like having the option of two different types of bokeh in one lens!
Good point, but where do you think that busy look fits? For my eye, it gets pretty distracting.

It can work if there are back lit leaves in the background, lights etc.
Depends on your taste. Some people like it, some don't. If you don't like it, use F2 and smaller.

Thank you for this. I appreciate your work, and am always trying to look at things a little differently and understand viewpoints.
There was another comment that seems to have disappeared about the broken becoming the subject. That too is a really good point.

The 'new' Lomo Babylon 13 (Orwo DN21) developed in Cinestill DF96 4 min @ 75 degress, 30 second initial agitation, then 10 seconds on the minute with 1 turn @ 30 seconds.
Shot with a Leica M7 and Zeiss ZM 35 1.4. The anti-halation layer is not present, I guess, as you can see glow in the highlights. This can be used to effect for cinema noir feel etc etc.
Images are show in their entirety with no cropping. If I was going to print I would crop out the border and perhaps straighten some...
This image has an accompanying 1:1 crop:
Essentially grain free.
This film is respooled ORWO DN21 but unless ORWO sells it in single 36exp rolls, it would be of no interest to those who don't want to deal with 100+ft of the stuff at a time.
I don't. I only want to buy a few rolls at a time and am happy to pay for the convenience. There are lots of other films I want to use too!

One of the side effects of the tragic wildfires in Southern California are the colors it can sometimes produce in the sky. Went out looking to capture a bit of it and found this father and son taking turns grabbing video of each riding bikes over some small hills.

Hi,
Do you know what the lighter zone in the sky are? Looks like over agitation or something (I did not develop a film myself for a long time so my memory is foggy at best).

Possibly. At the moment I am using so many different films in DF96, but all with the same dev time/temp/agitation process. Even though each film behaves slightly differently. What you see here does not occur with Lomography Fantome (same speed) or others. This actually was the last roll of 5324 that I will shoot, as I am returning the remainder of it to the place I bought it from - ultrafineonline.com - as they had rolled it far too tightly and it feels like I would damage the film advance mechanism of my camera.
Long story short - it could well be over agitation for this film!

I immediately thought of over-agitation when I looked at the image again after reading pmeheut’s post.
