1. Welcome to Lomography Purple Chrome photographs. We start with some architecture and buildings. This was taken in the university I’ve been to for 5 months. The place was nice, but I never finished my studies there, sadly.
2. Les fleurs des quais de Bordeaux
3. Hey, Adrien! :D Another of the cowokers I had at Disneyland Paris. He’s a nice and cool buddy, always positive and very well educated to me. He hosted me in Nantes for nearly a week in order to visit the town and also to participate in Expolaroid which is a worldwide (but mostly French) festival about instant photography.
4. 5. L’éléphant mécanique — My favourite shots taken with that film so far!
6. Strawberry & chocolate ice cream from La Fraiseraie. One of the best ice cream you could eat! I promise.
7. 8. 9. View from “la tour Bretagne”, the highest point of view in Nantes. I was with Adrien and Rémi, a friend I met while being at the university. It was a much pleasant moment, peaceful but breathtaking!
10. Le pique-nique en ville. Featuring Johanna and Max. I like the green light halo on the south west of the frame.
11. I don’t know why that shot went over-exposed but I enjoyed this moment during my spare time in Disneyland Paris. You can see some musicians playing while two children, both with their backpacks listening to them. I found this scene very cute, and couldn’t resist taking a photograph! :)
12. Spring is surely my favourite year’s season. Let the Aristocats play music!
13. Achour is one of the best colleagues I had the pleasure to work with. He’s nearly 60, but still, he has a lot of energy and positivity! This man is very nice, always ready to work, and he never complains. Such an good exemple of our society. I would totally enjoy seeing him again soon! :) Last Chance Café is a fast food restaurant, located next to the restaurant I used to work for, The Lucky Nugget Saloon, both located in Frontierland, in Disneyland park!
14. Another memory from my long contract in Disneyland Paris. I don’t know who the boy on the left is, but the other one is David (you can also see him in the previous article), and he’s coming from the region of Porto, Portugal! He’s kind of motivated, maybe too much sometimes, haha! :D
15. I took that photo just to be able to see and understand the colour hue offered by the Lomography Purple Chrome 35mm film. Some colours don’t exist anymore, and the other ones are shifted. Pretty amazing!
Camera: Minolta Dynax 500si Super & Sigma 28-80mm AF lens
Film: Lomography Purple Chrome 200 #001 — development courtesy by OldSchoolPhotoLab.comStory of the roll: The roll was kindly offered by an Internet pen pal friend, named Bethany. :) I had fun shooting it, because I couldn’t imagine how the colours would be rendering before I got the prints back! The exposition latitude seems kind of short though, so be careful to correctly expose your scenes if you will to try the film!
