This film absolutely has a place, and it really excels with limestone and blue sky. This film definitely has a look, think redscale, but with more colour or maybe those false colour IR shots that you can do with digital cameras. Shoot this with a subject contrasted against a blue sky at 400 ISO and you get some great results with moody orange skies. If you over expose it, as the effect gets diminished, and the results become a little flat. (because of the lack of DX coding, I set my compensation incorrectly at first until I realised). I actually saved this film for taking photos on the Whitby Way in Yorkshire and the results were every bit as good as I was hoping.

Wish I’d gotten clearer skies but it was a very fun film

What I love most about Lomo turquoise is that it forces you to think completely differently about what to shoot and how to compose your shots with it. Due to its uniqueness, I found myself pushing my creative ideas even further so that I could create something that is truly surreal and that matches the weirdness that is this film 😅

I highly recommend shooting it with various different colours of roses as the colour shifts are wild and beautiful and give you the chance to create crazy coloured roses that you could only dream about!

Or be a complete weirdo like me and strap a purge mask to a kid’s ride in the playground at 7 a.m. as you do on a Friday morning 😂

I love this film, you get unique results that look otherworldly. It is strange and wonderful, I recommend everyone should try this!!

I took a roll of Turquoise to the Eden Project in Cornwall, because I thought geodesic domes under an orange sky would look like a habitat on another planet. It didn't disappoint!

As far as I can tell, shooting at higher ISOs gives bolder colours. These were taken at ISO 400, so the upper limit of the box speed.

A word of warning though, people look weird. Blue faces are hard to get used to.
