Another part to my “Takumar Trek” today! At the end of part 7 the path reached the outskirts of the newish town of West Moors. It’s one of those places that mostly grew into existence during the building boom of the 1960’s and 70’s. Before that it was a small village, and the train hadContinue reading “35mm: Takumar Trek Pt8”

Darkroom: ID11 is go!
The weather today is wet – very wet, the sort of day where it’s good to stay in and do some developing! Knowing this was going to be the case, I mixed up my box of ID11 last night – so it had overnight to brew (permeate the solution). I decided I’d mix it toContinue reading “Darkroom: ID11 is go!”
35mm: Back to the 80’s
Last month when I visited the Purbeck Car Rally, I decided I’d take my little used Nikon FM2n for a day out. I took the 50mm f1.4 but mostly used the f2 35mm. Sometimes it’s good to just chill and forget about developers, filters and all that stuff, and just throw in a roll ofContinue reading “35mm: Back to the 80’s”
35mm: London on Delta 400
Last weekend I ended up in London. Was a time I went frequently, these days it gets less and less often. I do enjoy the “buzz” of London, but trying to get a few things done all in one day, often leaves me as much drained as invigorated these days. It’s an age thing! Anyway,Continue reading “35mm: London on Delta 400”
Darkroom: Film Pullers
I just came back from a trip to London, I shot 4 rolls of Ilford Delta 400. I chose the Canon EOS30 with the STM 40mm lens to take with me. As it turned out it was the correct choice. I found the lens the ideal perspective, the AF was helpful, especially when shooting quickly.Continue reading “Darkroom: Film Pullers”
35mm: More Purbeck Car Rally
I haven’t had time to scan the roll of colour film I shot at the rally, so this post is just a selection of images of quite random things that caught my eye on the day. I’m particularly pleased with the sharpness of these. That Nikon f2 35mm focusses down really close – 1 footContinue reading “35mm: More Purbeck Car Rally”
35mm: Purbeck Rally
Yes, more photo’s of cars and the like! The truth of the matter is that this summer in these parts the weather has been a bit dull and un-interesting. That, combined with working full time, and other commitments have meant that it’s been a bit of a meagre season for “days out” – which isContinue reading “35mm: Purbeck Rally”
35mm: Takumar Trek Pt7
The A31 speeds past Ringwood as a dual carriage way. At the end of part 6 of this ever growing epic, I got back to my parked car, just by the side of said A31. This time I start walking from just the other side of it. For those who may walk the whole trailContinue reading “35mm: Takumar Trek Pt7”
35mm: Seeing Red
Not exactly a wordless post – but very nearly. Today’s theme: Red! Chatter: Leica M6 with Zeiss Biogon 35mm lens Fuji 400 Superia. Lab processed but scanned at home.
35mm: Pilford Colour Pt2
Another small collection from my roll of Fuji 400 X-tra today. I do like close up details of old cars, especially the hood ornaments and trim in black and white. More modern cars, and I use the term quite loosely here – I think I prefer colour! I made the photo above, mainly for theContinue reading “35mm: Pilford Colour Pt2”
