This is my favourite image from what is probably the last roll of colour film I will shoot. Never say never, but everything is so expensive now that sadly I can’t justify buying colour film anymore.

I’ve been thinking about switching to black and white, buying rolls of Fomapan and loading it myself. Can anyone share experience with packing film on your own, what’s the cost per roll?

For a split second I thought this was a shot of Isabelle Huppert from I ❤️ Huckabees. Not exactly French Cinema. I haven't seen it in years. But I feel like I know the scene of this shot, even though that's impossible.

Edit: I just wanted to clarify. I don't have an "eye" for this kind of thing. But when this photo reminded me of a French actor in a movie, and then I read the photographer was going for French cinema. I was surprised how close I was. So I just wanted to be super clear, by "not exactly french cinema", I mean, I missed the mark, not the photographer.
