I put a roll of Fuji ISO 400 Slide Film into my Nikon F3 Camera and snapped some shots off the other day. The C41 film was then X-Processed at the Lab and here are some of the results.

Shooting and processing film in this manner is the direct reason why you have all of those fancy filters in your Instagram...difference is, this was the original way to get that contrasty, heavy red/green look.

A couple of the images are in Black and White, which I edited in photoshop, but the rest of the images are pretty true to the scans from my film.

Sunday Funday

Sunday Funday

We spent last Sunday Funday exploring Paradise Valley, (Idaho) in a Mule packed with really good food, a cute puppy and some good friends!

Here are a couple of pic's from our fun exploration!

Sagebrush

Sagebrush

Under the wide open skies of Wisdom Montana are fields and fields full of Sagebrush. For the non-allergenic type, the smell is very pleasant and calming while driving through the fields. I snapped some shots on our last Sunday afternoon day trip up to the Big Hole. We got to explore the mountain side and have a picnic with friends. Here are some images from the day trek.

Montana Spring Adventures

Montana Spring Adventures

As always, the Adventures continue here in Montana. Meeker our White Labrador is fast growing, now hitting the ripe old age of 4 months.

The past month has been spent with good friends and lots of outdoor time! Skeet shooting, mountain drives and some fun valley flying.

Check out some of the images below from the past month. All images photographed with a Nikon D800, 14-24mm 2.8 Lens or Nikkor 70-200mm 2.8 Lens.

Selway Fly Fishing

Selway Fly Fishing

Yesterday there was a break in the rainy Bitterroot Valley weather. We awoke to sunny blue skies and slightly warmer temperatures. It was the perfect day to fly back to Moose Creek, ID to go for a short hike and try our hand at Fly Fishing on the Selway River.

The fishing was pretty good in the end. Nice small Brook Trout, all caught on stimulaters. We packed a lunch and the pup, Meeker, ran around enjoying the river and everything else she could get her mouth on.  It is a pretty neat feeling to know that we where the only people around for miles, getting to enjoy the Selway Wilderness all to ourselves.

Here are some pic's from our fun adventure!!!

Meeker and her Garmin GPS collar!
