Below is the first photo I took. These geese are at my parent's back garden. Not great, kinda blurry, but if you look closely at the goose at the back, you can see the blur of it's flapping wings - which I really like! It started flapping just as I clicked the shutter.
I like how shooting with film makes me carefully think about each shot, as there's no easy preview and delete option like there is with digital. I enjoy taking the time to get the subject, focus and framing just right. I still make mistakes, but that's the whole point, isn't it? And I'm loving the anticipation and thrill when it does turn out right. I always crop and edit my photos that go in this blog, but I'm not doing any of that in this post. So it's kind of "raw", I guess. I really didn't want to mess with any of the framing or colours here, so you get a better idea of the photo results. I just resized them to fit the page.
All the following photos were taken in and around Melbourne.

and what amazing photos! great eye for composition!
Ana, you can sure take beautiful photos! My...I think I've forgotten how to take a non digital camera now!
~xo*
love the photos of the flowers against the sky! so pretty! and yes, film is such an exciting medium because you never really know what the results would look like. hope to see more of your film photos!
i love the one of the terraced houses! so pretty. I love Melbourne. So coming to live there next year! what kind of camera do you use?
They are absolutely beautiful!
I never knew there was a ferris wheel in Melbourne! Beautiful stuff, I especially love the one of the graffiti on the walls.
very pretty!
Lovely photos, Anna. Makes me miss Melbourne terribly.
I agree with you about enjoying the time and thought that goes into taking photos with film. Even though I just dabble with it, film is one of my favorite mediums. No matter how well you do your part, I love its unpredictability.
I'm so happy to see your photos, Anna! They're all lovely. I agree with Elena-Lu, you have a great eye for composition. And seriously, how cool is it that the goose started flapping its wings just as you clicked the shutter?! I love it :)
These are lovely. I do love film pictures too; my friend just brought a film camera in last week and ti was so fun.
It seems you have a lucky hand for taking pictures!
Incredible. I'd have these on my bedroom wall.
the photo of the flapping goose is a moment of pure serendipity :)
These are beautiful, Anna! I love the wall art especially!
delightful photos with such contrasts and textures!
Nice shots Ana!! Love those Alfred Hitchock ones...I don't think we have such interesting wall art up here!
The flapping wings look so amazing! I love taking pictures with film, too. Definitely a completely different experience. I was working with a 4x5 view camera last week and it took me literally an hour to compose each image. That plus film loading time, film developing time and print developing time definitely makes you think a lot more critically about what you're doing.
Beautiful pictures Ana !
Wow these are beautiful. I particularly like the blue of the sky in the first one against the white flowers in the tree.
(also thank you very much for the lovely comment about my parcels!)

Beautiful photos! I love shooting film as well, makes for some pretty interesting pictures!
Anna, they're extremely gorgeous! I need to try the film route again... I haven't done that in years and it really does sound like such fun.
Hope you're having a wonderful weekend!♥

Great photos ! I adore taking pictures with film too, it's so different from digital camera's. Omg it's spring in Melbourne, you are so lucky I love the trees in bloom..
