66 Rolls of Film On Route 66 

sure i'll watch a movie right now

Phenomenal

I think I need you and Baxter’s dad to make a pilgrimage to the UK to visit Kyle McDaddy himself so that we can get another twin feature length videos from you both :) Anyway, loved this and Jason’s one too.

Two of the most original photography RU-vidrs. My Route 66 outfit (When I lived in Chicago in the 80s and 90s I traveled Route 66 and the parallel interstates often) : My Perfect trio- Linhof 617s Technorama (6x17) Fujica GW 690 and Nikon FM2 with 20f3.5 and 200 f4 Such good memories (on RVP 220 and Kodachrome 64). Fun to watch you guys treading some of the same ground with your own take on it.📷📷👍👍

This dynamic duo is all I want in life

This was frankly fantastic. I enjoyed every second of this beautiful masterpiece!!!!! Thank you for this.

they really be carrying the best cameras ever made in a hyundai sonata

1:30h film photography videos are just bliss. Can’t find anything like that anywhere else, but yours and Jason’s channel. Love it

Enjoy every second of this masterpiece 💜

This was awesome…really enjoyed the amazing out of the way places to see along Route 66! Also, new Caleb seemed awesome…would’ve loved to have met him before his untimely demise.

Caleb, I started watching Jason's videos during the pandemic. I love watching the two of you together, having fun and taking great photos. Keep up the good work.

So much fun and inspiring! Appreciate all the hard work you put into all you do - photos, videos and movies. You've inspired me to make even more film photos and maybe make a film road trip. Thanks so much!

This was so good to watch! Love these long format videos! You managed to keep it super entertaining the whole time and there's a great mix of photos and b-roll. Great stuff!

I feel this trip was the belated honeymoon trip you guys had planned for years and only just got around to taking.

This took me 3 days of watching a bit then getting busy doing something else but I kept coming back! Love this video!! We took the route 66 trip as a family when I was a kid and this brought back so many memories!

Bro you and Jason are the photography dynamic duo! Watching your video and his on the same trip complement each other so well. I appreciate your passion for photography in general, I don't shoot film anymore but still enjoy watching your videos. Most digital photography channels are all about camera reviews, you guys are doing a great job showing the art of photography and having fun while doing it.

Enjoyed the journey, thanks for taking us along. Loved your closing sentiment; it summed everything up.

Like a movie ! It's really fantastic! I didn't know the time was passing. Thank you very much for your efforts.

Big thumbs up on this one. What a great way to document the trip. Keep the great content coming, keep them beautiful cameras shooting

What an amazing trip! That double Caleb part got me laughing so hard! Didn't expect that...

Absolutely love the long form video

Cool video dude! It's really fun to watch your video and Jason's video and your different perspectives of the same trip

Thanks for blowing the load in one huge chunk! Agree to others, this is some entertaining quality material here on YT! Hope it isn't the last too. And nice work on the BnW's, there were some very cool shots among them!

Oh dude, this is what I was waiting’s for!!

Epicness.

Interesting closure to the video. I know for me it is about the experience of shooting, the fun, the adventure and the moments found. Many times I get home, develop my film and it could be a month or more till I even scan the images. Not so much about having the images but going out and looking for them and making all those small decisions when you have a camera in hand. Thanks for sharing your journey with us as always

Caleb, your production quality is unmatched. I love your vids, man. You are a trip, and the fact that you and Jason are bois makes it all the better. I know this video was a ton of work and could have easily been chunked into multiple parts, but THANK YOU for posting the long-form. It's a rarity, and it worked SO WELL here, man. Really. I'd be a sad dude if you stopped posting your work. Huge fan here in Missouri.

What an achievement man! Feel good about this one, its great!

Finally! Thank you for all the work put into this

After one week, I finally finished it. Awesome video man, can’t wait for the next one :).

Guh, finally geez, take forever. WOOHOO!

Watched it in 4 or five takes, and I have to say, I really enjoyed it. Your music choices are so good. And of course, plenty of good photos! Keep it up Caleb 2, ehm I mean Caleb 1

super video. great fun! Excellent!

Enjoyed this so much I have gone back to watch this multiple times. Hopefully soon we will see the AWARD WINNING “Aerochrome the Movie”.

I was glued to your feature and did not skip a beat. Awesome adventure!

Just got my four prints from your Route 66 album at Darkroom and they are phenomenal! Absolutely love them. Everyone should be buying a couple of their favorites. Best wishes man.

Really wonderful video and this trip looks so fun! I've never been on the ol 66. Someday maybe...we shall see. I shall see. It is really something, out of say..100 color photos, maybe 10 to 20 tops make me stop and be like 'ooooo' but once black and white images step In...I'm like daannggg. There's something about the feeling there. Not saying b&w is better than color...definitely not, but it just has a very raw feeling. Loved having the variance and seeing what you got to see.

Epic! 🙌🏾 Watched til the end

Epic trip. I was looking forward to the montage of 66 roll of film in the lab-box

Loved it!! I need moarrr

Nothing beats your channel for zoning out on a film holder loading and developing session

I LOVED THIS VIDEO! I STAYED IN IT THE ENTIRE LENGTH... EVEN REWOUND IT TO LOOK AT FEW IMAGES!! IF YOU GUYS PUT THIS ON DVD I'D BUY A COPY!!!! -THE BLACKMAN ARMED WITH A CAMERA

"Everything has to end just like Route 66" perfect Loved this, don't undersell the photos you took but absolutely agree that the best part of the photos is looking at them later, remembering the circumstances you went through etc eg on my recent trip I got a blurry photo of a tree and it sucks as a photo but I love it because of how I was standing in blistering weather while I took it Glad the two bros had a great trip, looking forward to your next adventure and wow that sure is a lot of film. Those rangefinders are dangerous lol Stray comment but the colors of the e100 on the whale looked a bit off to my eyes. I've seen it happen with a roll too, I wonder if that's just slight underexposure or scanning hmm

love it

Been waiting on this one a while now! Poppin some corn and settling in >:)

Okay, ill start out by saying as I hit the 54 min mark, my page froze and I had to refresh it, which means I lost all of my comments up to the 54 min mark so I am about to go back to hit some key moments. You mention 10 years in Kansas, we want an origin story. "Who is Bad Flashes" Maybe you've done this but hey, I am just at about 2 years of watching your channel, accounting for covid messed up my concept of time. I'm from SE KS so... With that said, Oswego, Burlington, and that random bar on the side of the highway I knew exactly where you were. I remember messaging you or Jason when I had seen your IG story post from one of those locations. Or was it Baxter I called? I don't know. The blue whale, what a cool spot am I right? Imagine how cool it was back in the day for the kids getting to go there and swim. 50-70s pools and swimming spots are the coolest. Now they're commercialized and poo. Now down the road... The tunnel is pretty cool and I think I will make the stop there next time we head that way and I'll load up some cinestill 800t and a diffusion filter and call it a day. (I'm a cinestill fanboy, don't hate readers) Making this trip on rt66 from Joplin, Mo to ABQ last January for my 30th, many of these places you stop at look familiar but it was either, we didn't have the time, or the direct sunlight ruined any photo chances I wanted to take. Tucumcari had to be my favorite spot on the road but I hit it in the afternoon light so it wasn't the greatest and it was overcast but, I took the Churros photo one must take and I also stopped at that leather shop and took some photos on the way out of town. With all of this black and white, I am reminded I need to shoot more of it. I have many rolls in the freezer, just always choose color for some reason. I love that tire photo in the shop building. I stopped here as well but didn't stay long as my wife always stayed in the car since it was freezing out. So it starts raining and you say, "I have to protect my little baby..." I really thought the next shot would be you putting a raincoat on Jason. I had the wrong baby in mind I guess. HAHA So there are multiple reminders that I should shoot more ektar 100. It's one of the first rolls of film I shot when I bought my Nikon f4 and for some reason, i never stock up on it when I. do my monthly purchase. (yes, I buy film every payday-like its dogecoin during its hype) I really want to meet new Caleb, or is it Kaleb or Kayleb? Meat Mountain, wow. The Ektar at the dixie and photos forward are so good. Love the colors! Also, the Leica child joke was good, don't let Jason downplay it. The clouds are really working in your favor here in these images on the way to Flagstaff. Wow. Abandoned! the pancake house is so cool! 800t also is fun to shoot in the daylight, I do it pretty often. Also, I love horses and taking their photos. Nothing better than a 2 lane blacktop road, am I right? Also, the music choice throughout this really accompanied the locations nicely. Love is key! Wow, that abandoned pool is so badass. Imagine an epic skate photoshoot in that pool. Tony Hawk comes out of nowhere and says " Hey! Want me to shred it for you?!" That camera lineup is pretty nice! Paid Product Placement for The Wild Way. I assume they pay you in love because if I connected the dots correctly, they're family. I appreciate the Kodak moment, or well.. Jason's close-up. I am only a real photographer 36 photos a year because well... I only shoot one roll of black and white a year. I am glad you confronted him. Always good to go with your emotions. F the new caleb,kayleb,Kaleb. Can't believe this is my first comment on the fanny pack. I need one. That chopped and lowered pickup at the old Texaco shop is a relic. You don't see people chopping and clamming trucks like they used to in the 90s. I choose the Tank7 adventure over cameras on black. A few Tank7's can make any night, a good night. I want to visit California. Someday, ill see that beautiful state and you, oh wait...I'm not stalking you. or am I? Okay, I thought, this new Kayleb bit is getting good. A nice little finish at Roys and then bam, you pull off the double shot that just adds the cherry on top.Well done, looks great and super real. Wish I knew what car that was,..lets google. No luck and really, it's probably a Edsel, Chrysler..maybe a Mercury. I don't know RIP Kayleb..... . ... ... .........

I would have never thought that you are making these colorfull photos. You always come across rather hamfisted in Jason's videos - but the images you shoot are way more intimate and cheerfull then I thought

Love to Tri-X shots…Nice to see some B&W love….Too much Portra, nice change! Great videos!! Keep up the great work!

Enjoyed the film, especially since that is a photo trip I would love to make. Also some kickin' music. Would love to see a play list. Looking forward to the next "full length feature".

best bro goals

That skull was a flawlessly good bit

Love the Tri-X at the end (Needles)

Great video, some amazing images 👌

It's as if April and Andy Dwyer went on a Route 66 Roadtrip, great shots and great entertainment. I did route 66 from Joshua Tree, CA to Albequerque, NM (had to see the air balloon festival) in eight days with my wife and it was the experience of a lifetime!

killer soundtrack!

Love that this is longer than your short film.

So good to watch ! what would it have been without the coffee ? This is a long format ! so much work here !

I just re-watched this video years after seeing it the first time. I’m a long-time 66 bum. The road is alive. It’s always in a state of flux. What is my point? Time for you two to do this again!

I really love route 66. I did it in around 10 days, I am impressed you did it in 8! I would love to go back, would probably do it in reverse this time and maybe in parts... and definitely with film. The mojave desert, grand canyon and death valley, though not part of actual 66 are all near enough and would look amazing on film.

Fantastic video

Great trip w/ the bois! Btw I enjoyed you color work in this more than usual, that makes me think the pinkish hue that you usually throws the colors of optically, so stick with white!

Thanks 🙏 Caleb. This is awesome. So much in there, and it looks like an amazing trip. P.S. is that some MMMBop at 50:09? 😆

I am starting to see why grainy days seems a little tuckered out all the time. You are very energetic, lol. Great pair of videos!

Wow ! Great body of work. I watched the entire 1:36hrs. over the course of 2 days. It's sad to see, parts of route 66 , in such disrepair . KB

Watching this from Australia 🤙

Solid

Yes dudeeee. LETS FUKINN GOOOOOOO

Old Caleb is the Best Caleb

YES

What a video, man. As I told you on Instagram, I really want to see that Leica review soon! I wonder, will you retire the Minolta?

Oh baby! Just finished the other bloke's feature film and boom! Here's yours! (You know you are my favourite, right?)

watching this video i decided to google the whale, and I realized I live an hour down highway 51 from the whale!! How exciting is that, I'm going to visit the location 3 iconic film celebrities have taken photos :)) also I love these long form videos because I can watch them over the course of a week and whenever I want to watch some quality content I know exactly what to watch

WOOOOOT

Love your content, you deserve way more subscribers.u

wish i could double-thumbs up.

i respect your work. 1.5hr is nuts.

What a bromance ☺️🥰😅

Great effort. Certainly didn't feel like 90+ minutes. Cheers.

Awesome video, new subscriber ;-)

The night shots at the 50-51 minute mark were superb

Amazing video!! Makes me want to jump in my car and hit the road. I prefer the images you got on this trip. (Don't tell the other guy)

Wonderful film. Reminded me I needed to put in another order for some film. But I must admit, I loved the pronunciation of "Tucumcari".

Hi there i really enjoy watching your videos, equaly jasons. The photography aspect is very cool, as is the traveling, between the shots and the fact that your friendship seems to be exactly like this without the cameras rolling. I got a question though. Its kinda general but i really like to know how people approach photography. I noticed that many of your images are shot with a relatively long lens. I'm a landscape dude, i oftentimes shoot at lower focal lenghts. When you take a photo like the ones from the place after the polica bar, what do you look for in these? Is it lines, context or just preference and sometimes symmetry? I dig your stuff but sometimes i feel like there is a bit of "space" missing to me and i'd enjoy getting to know why you choose to do it that way. Understanding photographers helps me getting my own style refined. Thank you for creating amazing content like that!

You two should make a photobook out of this trip

Catch the skull 💀in the trash can after Jason was wiggin’ out 😂

7:02 You’re my everything.

1:20:59 they look like sodium vapor lamps, they are very monochromatic yellow but often used because they are also very efficient. Low pressure sodium vapor lamps are in fact so monochromatic that they can be used as darkroom safelights while being brighter than the red ones.

Loving the extra long content. I know it takes a ton of time to get through all the footage so I def appreciate this. My only nitpic is way too many ads. They’re coming every 5minutes….can’t really get into a groove watching this with all the ads interrupting what you’re saying. Maybe tune down the amount in settings? 🙏🏾 Thanks again for the upload today!

def test your cameras! i bought a voigtlander vitoret 110 before a trip and like 8 shots into the roll it just stopped advancing and i hadnt brought my kodak 110 camera so i just had a bunch of 110 film taking up space.

I picked up my M6 from CLA yesterday. I had the opposite effect to your light leaks due to shutter, at speeds 1/500+ it wouldn't expose corectly and I would get underexposed patches. It's all good now, I hope. Have to burn a roll to check.

the shot at 1:31:11 is magnificent!

Wow I didn’t know that you guys hit Kansas in the trip. I had seen Jason’s video but not your POV. I went exploring in Bushong KS this year and there is a massive abandoned school in that town. Maybe you saw it idk. you guys should check out if you ever come rolling through again!

Oscar Goes to „ BAD FLASHES!“

👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾

Hello. I watched your video several times. I like the way you did it and the music you chose. One question. At the wale you took two pictures of Jason. One in the wale, one outside of the wale. This two pictures have deep contrast and dark zones and somehow dark deep blue in it, but the skin tones are warm. With which camera and filters a.s.o. did you do this kind of pictures?

I dunno what it is. I love my slice of life America, we don't have nearly as storied a road trip as route 66 here in Australia. But, that's because there is nowhere to road trip to... There is no Mid West, because anything west of me here in Australia by about 1000miles is desert. We do have fly over states... But you can, and I have, sat on a plane (heading to Singapore) and seen nothing but stark emptiness for hours on end flying across central Australia.

Same shirt 3 days in a row. Proper road trip.

I want to see your timeline and know how long this took you to edit. (Also your video color has improved and I appreciate it)

Pan F seemed to be the best results. I haven’t shot it since the 80s though.

I want to get out there next year perhaps.
