Film photos from my trip to Sri Lanka

in #photography8 years ago

I took a trip to Sri Lanka last year and I thought I would share the photos I took on a film camera. From memory it was cross processed slide film on a La Sardina.

Sri Lanka has everything from mountainous regions to surf beaches, exotic animals and awesome food. It's definitely underrated as a holiday destination.


Surfing out at Arugam Bay


Sri Lanka has some of the best food I've ever eat. Check out the curry spread!


Local bus


Another bus shot :)


Elephant at the safari park. You don't even need to go to a safari park, wild elephants just cross the road in some places.


Waiting for my train


Some locals going for a swim on the west coast


Chillin on the swing set


View from the balcony of a place we stayed at in Kandy (with flower double exposure of course)


Let me know what you think of the photos!

If you've been to Sri Lanka before I would be keen to hear your highlights.

Awesome pics, rare to find.

Great pictures !! I have a friend who visited Sri Lanka and she said the food was to die for, and she is hard to impress when it comes to food.
Also some great surfing to be done, as she told me.

Love the analog pictures.

Keep sharing, thank you!

Thanks! The food is spot on, stoked I discovered soya meat curries.

film photos have something magical. Like vinyl for music

Great post! I was in Sri Lanka last year and yes, the food is great. A little too spicy for me though. Did you climb Sigiriya rock?

No I didn't even up making it there unfortunately but we did climb Adam's Peak (5,500 stairs) which left me with a pretty good limp for a solid week :)

Wow! I don't think I am fit to do that lol. I followed you now. I just recently posted my pictures from dambulla maybe you could check it out too! Cheers!

All taken on a La Sardina with x-pro slide film. Just followed you @ericoliveira great shots!

I'm pretty sure it was a mix of Kodak Gold and x-pro elite chrome on a La Sardina.
