Weymouth #1
Another run to the hospital, left me with 5 hours to fill so I drove 8 miles south to my hometown of Weymouth. I moved away over a decade ago, but spent over 40 years there, and so have many memories of almost every nook and cranny! I have some great memories but these daysContinue reading “Weymouth #1”
Pan-F at Dawlish
The day I had a walk around Dawlish Warren turned out to be a bright sunny day, even though it was mid-October. Bright enough that I decided I could use up my last roll of Pan-F from my film stash. There is talk with this film that the latent image degrades quite quickly once exposed,Continue reading “Pan-F at Dawlish”
Short Photo Walk
When I have a little spare time I try to get out and have a short walk. If it is somewhere different then so much the better, even if its not, I take the camera with me. These are a few snaps made on such an outing – no theme, just what caught my eye!Continue reading “Short Photo Walk”
We’ve had snow!!!
A week ago I was out in glorious sunshine making images of the autumn colours. This week we have snow, and a reasonable amount too! I have always lived on the south coast of the UK, and whilst we get plenty of rain and wind, very little snow. I remember we had enough for meContinue reading “We’ve had snow!!!”
Autumn Colour
A couple weeks back while the autumnal colours were at their height, a free half hour lunchbreak coincided with a crisp sunny bright day. I happened to have one of my digital cameras with me – so I took a walk. Chatter: Canon EOS 5D with Canon 50mm f1.4
When colour is too old
I had an old roll of Colorplus 200, expired in 2002. I’ve used this sort of age film before, and always allow an extra stop for age. Many people suggest that 1 stop per decade is a good idea. My experience is that while 1 stop is good, going to 2 or more just addsContinue reading “When colour is too old”
Brewery Square
Towards the southern side of Dorchester is Brewery Square. It’s a modern development, but built on and in the disused industrial remains of a brewery of Eldridge Pope. They have their own page here for the history, just scroll about halfway down! A hospital drop off and collection meant I had an afternoon to wanderContinue reading “Brewery Square”
How much developer?
Once upon a time there was daddy bear, mummy bear, oh sorry wrong audience! In my developing kit I have a small, medium and large developing tanks – I use the Paterson System 4 tanks, but I prefer the older “original” system 4 and not the newer “Super” ones. I find that they are un-necessarilyContinue reading “How much developer?”
The Wonder of film
Single photo: In Exmouth Harbour. Don’t get excited this is one of those “single photo” posts that I (and others) do every now and again. I was flipping through the scans of my last roll of Devon images and the one above caught my eye. I rather like it. We analogue fans, although I shouldn’tContinue reading “The Wonder of film”
