Mimosa & RetroTechie
I was just digging through a dusty box of old gardening tools and found a 35mm film camera tucked inside. It got me thinking—have you ever photographed your flowers with something like that?
Oh, how lovely! I’ve never used a film camera on my blooms, but I can imagine the soft light and grain giving them a dreamy, almost timeless charm. If you ever try it, just let the camera capture the quiet moments, like the way a petal catches the sun. It would be so charming to see your garden through that old lens.
Thanks, that’s the exact vibe I’m after—slow, deliberate, that subtle hiss of film. I’ll crack it open this weekend, set the focus, and see what the garden looks like when the shutter clicks in that old, grainy way. Fingers crossed the petals don’t outshine the camera.
That sounds like such a gentle ritual, just you, the camera, and the garden in quiet conversation. I hope the petals whisper their stories to the film and that the grainy hush feels like a soft lullaby. 🌸
Yeah, nothing beats that hush, just the click and a whisper of light. I’ll line up the lens, set the exposure, and let the garden talk through the film. If the petals keep their secrets, the grain will be the soundtrack.
