My posts have slipped from being one every two days to longer intervals. This is not a deliberate decision. I’ve done much less photography this winter, especially film, in fact in the last two months I’ve only shot two rolls – unheard of for me! The weather has been very wet and dull in theseContinue reading “Phone/Blog”

Tri-X @ Moors Valley
Last weekend I had a couple of days away, I took my “new to me” Leica M4-P loaded with a roll of Kodak’s Tri-X. I didn’t finish the roll, so rather than just snap away, I waited until my next day out to finish the roll on images I wanted to make. Thursday was my dayContinue reading “Tri-X @ Moors Valley”
AI and the stupidness of it.
Bolstered by the non-success of my new laptop, I’ve now proceeded to purchase a phone, or is it a camera or a paperweight? The new laptop is up and running, and I’m typing on it now. That seems fine. Of course I can’t switch it on or get to any programmes or do anything usefulContinue reading “AI and the stupidness of it.”
Leica M4-P
Just before Christmas I brought myself a new to me camera. A Leica M4-P Body. Why I hear you ask? I’m going to confess to having a bit of a hang-up when it comes to cameras. Redundancy is the word. I tend to go places to photograph them, and especially if it’s a distance, IContinue reading “Leica M4-P”
Poole Harbour on Delta 400
Last Sunday was a lovely day here in Dorset (UK), and after so many days of rain and dull weather I made a point of going out for a walk for an hour, mainly just to get a bit of exercise and fresh air. Of course I took a camera with me, if I hadn’t,Continue reading “Poole Harbour on Delta 400”
St Peter’s Dorchester
Way back in September, Dorchester had a town heritage day. This meant that many of the towns museums, and tourist attractions were open to the public for free. I went as I’d fancied visiting the “Shire Hall“. The battery failed in my Nikon F3 and you can read about that here. Most un-like me IContinue reading “St Peter’s Dorchester”
An interruption!
You may have noticed a small change in my frequency of posting. I have had an interruption to my workflow! I decided that I’d treat myself to a new laptop. My existing tower pc is getting on a bit, and has decided to start doing wonderful things, such as insisting I update from Windows 10Continue reading “An interruption!”
Palm House, Kew
I shot two rolls of Kodak Gold on my visit to Kew Gardens, I could have easily used more! Towards the end of the day as the sun was staring to dip, I used the last exposure and rewound. Then as I started to walk back towards the entrance, out came the sun, the skyContinue reading “Palm House, Kew”
Out Back
If I depart from the kitchen door, proceed up the garden path, exit the property through the back gate, I end up standing on a playing field. Three or four games of football run simultaneously on a Sunday morning. Sometimes they are there when I wake up and look out the bedroom window! Behind that,Continue reading “Out Back”
Tri-X Over Christmas
Late last year I tried my first, or to be more accurate, what I think was my first roll of Kodak’s Tri-X, otherwise known as TX 400. You can read about that here. I actually purchased three rolls at the time, so I thought I’d pop one in my Leica over Christmas, just to makeContinue reading “Tri-X Over Christmas”
