Lomography Tungsten 64 on Olympus Mµ II

I took a trip to Bangkok 2 weeks ago with Mr Hubs. The last time we went was around end of 2008 or early 2009. Can't really remember coz it was too long ago. This time around, we stayed for a week. Walked a lot, didn't do much to be honest. The best though is our trip to Ayutthaya. 1 hour away with taxi and we rented a taxi with free wifi from 7.45am to 3pm for 2700 Baht. (approx. RM280.80) We sent out around to 5 Wats and a Floating Market there. So it's well worth it.

Although our initial cheapskate plan was to take a train (like KTM) and buy a 3rd class ticket with no aircond for 15 Baht each (approx. RM1.56). And the journey's about 2 hr 50 mins. And lots of tuktuk rental from there on. We chose not to and we're glad coz it's the raining season.

I've got some rolls of film processed and want to kick my stupid ass for not checking the settings of each camera properly before using it. I want to cry to be honest. All is quite blurry except for my Olympus Mµ II camera. I set my La Sardina to Bulb for Daylight exposure arrrgghhhhh MF!!! FML!

Anyway, here are some shots that I can accept.

 

Majestic prang.

 

Rows and rows of Buddha figures that are not destroyed during the war. Donned in bright yellow cloth.

 

Random bricks. Reverse bokeh.

 

Clock tower at Chatuchak Market. One of the many popular meeting point in the ever busy weekend market in Bangkok, Thailand.

 

Colourful taxis outside of Chatuchak Market, Bangkok, Thailand.

 

Victory Monument. The busiest area in the whole of Bangkok as it is the public transport hub.

 

Random electrical cables outside of Exit 1 of Kamphaeng Phet MRT Station. We were taking a breather and an iced cold bottle of mineral water waiting for the day to end.

 

Busy roads near Indra Square, Bangkok, Thailand. View point from a pedestrian bridge.

I want to end this and say that Tungsten 64 is still my favourite slide film. It has not failed me yet. But I now know I dislike Lomo's negative film and their redscale. Those should be discontinued.

I heart Lomography Tungsten 64 ISO film

It's sad that Lomography had discontinued this beautiful film. Although it's meant to have a greyish hue, but it turns out purplish and I love it! I still have 2 rolls of this film and will save it for something else in the future. This is my first experimental roll with the Diana Mini. And it was taken way back last year, I didn't have time to finish the roll.

This is my favourite pic of this roll. Was taken at Urbanscapes 2012.

 

Loungers resting and chatting by their boat docked at Straits Quay, Penang.

 

Love the in your face colours of this one. Taken somewhere in Penang. Old heritage building.

 

Famous drinking hole in Jonker Street, Malacca. Geographer is the place to be for beers and music.

My next experiment would be on the La Sardina The Guvnor. But for now, I will just load a cheap ass normal 35mm film to test. And I can't wait for Lomo Purple 400Iso to arrive in Malaysia. I heart purple shades.
