I had to go look up dubblefilm jelly. Awesome!

They make several varieties. I have another roll of Jelly and two other types to try. The Jelly is respooled Kodak gold that they've somehow preexposed to light (they just glue a label over the canister, so pretty easy to identify it as Kodak). In analyzing the roll, I haven't quite figured out what makes one image have super effects vs another. At first I thought it only "worked" in full sun, but then at the end of the roll I was shooting inside my house and got some strong effects also (and obviously the library image). Two images I definitely overexposed (I could barely see my scene, just the color overlay and I thought I misfired two frames, which is hard to do on this specific camera), so I will have to watch that going forward.

It's definitely not a film I'd use regularly, but it's fun to mix it up once in awhile. I can do some of this stuff in camera with prisms on my digital cameras, but I like the unknown aspect of using a film like this.

Just be sure to bring lots of bear spray! Actually nowadays the parking lot at the top is almost always full and getting shots without other admirers can really stretch your patience.

Thanks for the warning about the admirers haha. I go to the mountains for solitude. I get enough crowds here in SW Florida!

I feel that film is still a hugely varied and fascinating art form. Thanks for keeping it going :) .
