Sometimes doing film swaps can be tricky. This is another image from a film swap I did with fellow film photographer Nick Brand (I believe that's his name. I met him through Instagram and know him through his screen name grandpanick). When he mailed me his already exposed roll of film, he left me a set of notes as to what each frame composed of and the f stops and shutter speeds he used to expose each frame.
What he didn't write down however was how he shot each frame, whether it was landscape or portrait. Without knowing how he shot each frame, I went about shooting and exposing my set of photos blind. In this photo, his original exposure of the cars was landscape while my exposure of trees was portrait. Luckily this image sort of works out compositionally. The lot sort of melds into the hiking trail I was on and the branches of the tree borders the left side of the frame.
With film swaps and double exposures, luck plays a great deal in your results and that bit of chaos gives the practice of shooting double exposures and film swaps some bit of excitement and anticipation in what two photographers can come up with.
