Writing, Photography, and the life lessons I learned from Street Academy
I love this Revolog boutique film. Especially the Tesla formulations, which add lightning strikes right onto the film itself. That being said, the other day I took a batch of Revolog Tesla film for a photo shoot. The thing with Revolog film is, you don’t know where or how the lightning will appear in the…

I used my Nimslo four-lensed film camera to capture the moment, and combined all four images into a magic-motion print.
