Long Exposures on Black and White Film

I went out hiking a few days ago and took minimal gear with me to capture a few long exposures. This video was originally going to be about how to shoot long exposures on film with less gear, but I scrapped that while editing and just stuck with a peaceful vibe not crammed full of photo information. If you're interested to read the original thoughts everything is posted over at the blog:

Hi there. I'm Chris. Film is more fun is a place where I share about whatever busted up old camera I'm currently shooting and tinkering with, or my meanderings in film photography. It would be pretty rad if you said what's up. I'm 99% friendly. Definitely do that. Disclaimer: If you want technical proficiency this might not be the best place. These videos are more like an elderly person navigating a tv remote control. Pretty random and confused.
