So if you should ever find yourself in the little corner of Heaven known as southwestern Michigan, I highly suggest visiting the adorable town of St. Joseph and Silver Beach. It’s a great beach with a great playground and all sorts of other fun stuff nearby. On this particular day, even though it looks overcast, it was about 96 degrees in the shade and roughly 160% humidity by my estimation.  I got a little brave and was more than waist deep in the lake with my trusty little EOS3 film camera.  A few times it did get a little wet when a big wave would hit me while I was trying to get low down and to water level…but it’s the least expensive (and maybe most fun) of all of my gear by a longshot so I have fun with it.

These are a mix of two different film stocks, Fuji Pro 400 and Kodak Portra 400, and I am becoming a huge fan of the latter. Developed and scanned by Indie Film Lab.
