Lomography Rescale at ISO 200 for Architectural Photography

I’ve written previously about Lomography Redscale film, and how I have enjoyed using it around San Francisco, especially for red brick architecture.  I’ve unintentionally underexposed this reverse-spooled film in the past, and wondered if exploiting it’s “extended range” could both address my underexposure and provide a less red, more neutral look that I could benefit from in my building photography.

The answer is definitely yes!  At ISO 200, the reds remain, but are pleasantly subdued.

With this knowledge, I realize I have options for exploring Lomography’s other color-shifted films (which use different mechanisms to remap the colors) for my architecture projects.  Especially as my favorite black and white film for that purpose has been discontinued…  I want to use that as an excuse to explore all of my options.

I will be returning to Redscale in the future.
