I met a guy on the 'gram who also shoots film in my area. Awesome guy, and it turns out we have a lot in common. We went to the E&J Gallo headquarters entrance, then to an abandoned park that had once been a very large homeless encampment (400+ people), and then down to the varrio. Weather was incredible that day. All in all we had a great time, and have met up since to shoot more of Modesto's "Glorious Junk." All shot on hella expired film and storage conditions were unknown.

    @stereograph, this was also on the LC-Wide. It was an expired roll, so that was my first thought, but when the underexposure occurred in the Metropolis roll, I second thought. I took a look at the batteries and they look fresh. I should probably shoot another roll on it and see how it turns you. What say ye?

    @nonspecificscientific the same. expired 400 Slide (never age well), x-pro-ed = no benchmark! take fresh batts and check with a fresh K200 or so. use bracketing for control. nice shot by the way! :-)

    @nonspecificscientific oh, even if it is a regular E& dev, same thing! Slidefilkms are the heaviest do measure and expose correctly and as said: they age horrible!
