Kodak Portra
"You know, I had a meeting with him [Henri Cartier-Bresson], one in particular, it was at this party in Lyon. Big event, you know. I was seated with him and a couple of women. You’ll never guess what he said to me. “William, color is bullshit.” End of conversation. Not another word. "

Or Kodak Portra, as it were.
Finally getting through the backlog of scans that have been languishing on my hard drives, starting with some local color around The City from August and September.

In Technicolor no less... or Kodak Portra as it were...
A departure to say the least, I've been experimenting with some color film lately. My wife likes to tell people that I'm actually color blind. Seriously, she does it all the time.

Shout out to Photoworks SF for stellar processing and quick turn around... got to support the local shops...
