The photos 馃摳 are my entry to the #monomad contest from 
Greetings, Hivers.
Last Monday I picked up the developed film from the last roll I shot: a Kodak Tri-X that had been expired for several years. Honestly, I wasn't too worried. Tri-X is one of those films that, no matter how expired it is, always seems willing to give you an image.
I鈥檓 going to divide this roll into about three posts so I don鈥檛 bore you too much. 馃槄 I鈥檓 really happy to say that almost every frame came out well, and that makes me especially pleased.
The photographs I鈥檓 sharing today are some of the analog shots I took during a rehearsal of the Persefone theater group. It was a wonderful experience. Watching the actors prepare, get into character and live that moment before going on stage was simply fantastic.
And then there are those little imperfections that give analog photography its special magic: scratches, small traces of fungus on the film, dried water droplets left after development, and those marks that, far from ruining the images, give them a unique character.
Because that is also part of shooting on film. Every roll has its own story and, sometimes, its own scars.
I hope you enjoy these images as much as I enjoyed making them.
Enjoy.
Saludos, Hivers.
El pasado lunes recog铆 el revelado del 煤ltimo carrete que dispar茅: un Kodak Tri-X caducado desde hace ya unos cuantos a帽os. La verdad, no ten铆a demasiadas preocupaciones. El Tri-X es de esos carretes que, por muy caducado que est茅, siempre parece dispuesto a darnos alguna imagen.
Voy a dividir este carrete en unos tres posts para no aburrirlos demasiado. 馃槄 Me alegra much铆simo decir que casi todos los fotogramas salieron bien, y eso me complace especialmente.
Las fotograf铆as que hoy les comparto son algunos de los disparos anal贸gicos que hice durante el ensayo del grupo de teatro Persefone. Fue una experiencia genial. Ver a los actores prepar谩ndose, entrando en personaje y viviendo ese momento antes de salir a escena fue sencillamente maravilloso.
Y luego est谩n esas peque帽as imperfecciones que hacen que la fotograf铆a anal贸gica tenga una magia especial: los ara帽azos, los peque帽os vestigios de hongos en la pel铆cula, las gotas de agua secas despu茅s del revelado y esas marcas que, lejos de arruinar las im谩genes, les dan un car谩cter 煤nico.
Porque eso tambi茅n es parte de la fotograf铆a en celuloide. Cada carrete tiene su propia historia y, a veces, sus propias cicatrices.
Espero que disfruten estas im谩genes tanto como disfrut茅 haci茅ndolas.
Disfr煤tenlas.
