Sprockets/graduation mask test

I taped a piece of exposed film vertically in the back of a Pentax ME Super to act as a sort of blue graduation filter and get sprocket holes down the sides of my shots. I compensated 3 stops on 800 ISO film, but still wasn't quite enough. They turned out darker (and bluer) than I was hoping for, so they're not great and I'm just uploading these few to demonstrate the concept. Might experiment further with this at some stage, though.

Kinda reminds me of the Day for Night movie shooting style from the 60's

@alburnkat I didn't know about that technique, but have now checked it out on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Day_for_night Very interesting - thanks for pointing it out!
