Art of 35mm Film V

On a random Tuesday, I was thinking should I deliver my film I took some time ago. I always have extra film with me, so I decide to load a canister of fresh film ISO 400 and went out. I drove all the way to Plaza Singapura but my destination was at Sunshine Plaza. With a new film loaded, I decide test how long can I take to complete the canister with precision with 35mm. It took me about an hour to complete that roll now I'm showing my results of the shot. I decide on the theme Isolation

1st Selection


ISO-400
Shutter speed- 1/250  @ F/5.6
35mm Focal Length-  35mm
Camera-F3
Lens- Nikon 35mm F/2 AFD


1. In which area I wish to improve and achieve better results.
It seem like my subject kind of too low in the frame. I seem to same problem with most of my shots. Could it be my F3 causing this?

2. What I hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
Isolation feeling. I use Lightroom to add effects to improve the feel from the shot.

3. Under what circumstances is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Strong sun with people walking around. Want to achieve this isolation shot, I waited for some time to take this shot. 

4. What I personally think of the picture
The tone of this shot consider quite amazing, even it converted from color film. The quality of the film is really good. 

2nd Selection

ISO-400
Shutter speed- 1/125  @ F/4
35mm Focal Length-  35mm
Camera-F3
Lens- Nikon 35mm F/2 AFD

1. In which area I wish to improve and achieve better results.
Might be good if I include some vehicle into the shot, much convenient for me to describe the isolation theme. 

2. What I hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
Isolation feeling. I use Lightroom to add effects to improve the feel from the shot.

3. Under what circumstances is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
Taken beside a busy road near bugis street. 


4. What I personally think of the picture
Good colors to portrait yesteryear effect seem nicer if company by some vehicles behind.

3rd Selection


ISO-400
Shutter speed- 1/500  @ F/16
35mm Focal Length-  35mm
Camera-F3
Lens- Nikon 35mm F/2 AFD

1. In which area I wish to improve and achieve better results.
Lower aperture to isolate the subject seem better off if I'm able to gauge the aperture with faster speed.

2. What I hopes to achieve with the piece of work?
Isolation feeling. I use Lightroom to add effects to improve the feel from the shot.

3. Under what circumstances is the picture taken? (physical conditions/emotions)
In the middle of a round about with strong sunlight


4. What I personally think of the picture
Kind of out of the kind, seem like a yesteryear photo portraying vintage buildings.













I trying my best to gauge the aperture and shutter speed with a faster timing. During this shoot, I realize a totally full manual camera does not provide you with half stop. Everything is in a full one stop really make a different in the shot. Even for shutter speed of 1/4 and 1/8 can change the mood, feel and idea you design for the shot.
