Back in 1996 in my mid-thirties after

publishing DISTANCE, a high-contrast B&W
photo book, there was a stretch when I was
shooting with both B&W negative and
positive color films. After a while I
encountered negative color films and
naturally, I said goodbye to B&W and positive
films. Recently I found a lot of positive films
from those days that I had forgotten about
and I cut out the frames that I thought were
good and set them aside as my first check,
and now that I couldn t find those shots
preliminary checked as the important ones, I
thought that maybe it was destined to
happen. So, moving forward I copied the
remaining photos with a digital camera. It is
this body of works that I call My
Ektachrome that I produced by adjusting
the faded colors to my favorite color profile
in Photoshop just like my handmade
darkroom color prints.

I've been shooting on film and printing in the

darkroom for decades. These days the increasing
prices and the di!iculties in finding my favorite film
and photographic paper in addition to how
demanding the darkroom printing process is; long
hours and physical and mental e!ort. And recently
when wondering about my age and the near future, I
thought of the possibility of switching to a digital
camera from now on. But then again while editing this
new book, I felt that a"er all, the silver gelatin prints
are great great. I decided that I will use film a while
longer. Koji Onaka
