Experiments in film photography - part 4

I've got more photos from the roll of Psych Blues #5 experimental film I shot with my vintage Minolta Maxxum 50. (See the first set here.) The effects this film produced are so very much up my alley, in my wheelhouse, and the very thing I enjoy. I'm always looking for alternative ways to view reality.

The central images are relatively accurate and intact, with a nice film glow to them, and then the edges are an absolute riot of color.

These first four images are from a visit to the Pittsburgh Botanic Garden.

This structured waterfall is from South Park, Allegheny County, PA.

We finish strong with imagery from my fall garden, featuring milkweed pods with milkweed beetles.

Here's a fading display of Montauk daisies. They are not native, but I keep them because they bloom very late and the bees appreciate them.

I really love the way the color shift worked out on these oak leaf hydrangea leaves,

A perennial favorite, Ligularia ‘Desdomona’.
