I'm riding behind Beau here at dusk. This is a still from the 16mm footage I took on an old photosonics camera. They are these crazy little high-speed military cameras that are the size of two cigarette packs and allow you to shoot film in places that you normally wouldn't with a heavy Bolex. The only problem is they are expensive, ridiculously hard to load and are always breaking.. Thank God for Go Pros! Photo: Cyrus Sutton.
