Greetings, hivers.

For the past few weeks, I’ve been returning to film photography, recalling old tricks and shooting with more patience.

But film photography is not just about slowing down and thinking more about the image. The magic does not end there. There is a whole process behind the shot that contributes greatly to the image finally being printed on paper. It involves a carefully crafted workflow, almost as if a chemical laboratory and a large company came together in a single creative process.

Fortunately, we have good friends who are helping us refresh that knowledge that had become a bit rusty. And with a little practice, it gradually comes back to life.

Saludos, hivers.

Desde hace unas semanas estoy retomando la fotografía química, recordando viejos trucos y disparando con más calma.

Pero la fotografía química no se trata solo de ir despacio y pensar más la imagen. La magia no termina ahí. Existe todo un proceso detrás del disparo que aporta muchísimo a que la imagen termine impresa en papel. Lleva un trabajo elaborado, casi como si un laboratorio químico y una gran empresa se unieran en un mismo flujo creativo.

Por suerte, contamos con buenos amigos que nos están ayudando a refrescar esos conocimientos que ya estaban un poco oxidados. Y con un poco de práctica, poco a poco vuelven a la vida.
