Domeyko/Gonzalez; Diana F+ on the road from Melbourne to Sydney

It seems the Diana F+ is a great summer camera in the way it enhances light conditions; despite it's crappy plastic lens and design they're able to always brings out really vivid colour with good strong direct sunlight applied. Below are a whole bunch of shots l took on an unflattering afternoon in the car driving Domeyko/Gonzalez home after their EP launch; these shots charter the drive from central Melbourne and off on the way to Sydney as the natural light fades. In the past overcast light in shots on the camera aren't generally too interesting but l feel some of these created great abstract atmospheric feeling; suppose being the combination of overcast conditions as well as disappearing sunlight. A gallery for analogue watermarks and my new found tendency to go for double-exposure :)

Not going to take any more 120 film roles till l decide how l really want to use this camera; it's capabilities aren't great but it would be good to devote a specific series to this format instead of just buying one or two roles every few weeks then using them all up in a couple of hours wherever l happen to be.. but l guess they're suppose to be treated this way?
