Continuing on from my post last week, Belgium in B/W, I arrived in Norway. I’d had such a great time, last time I was here that I was eager to return and this time I did with a 16mm Krasnagorsk camera, 8x 100ft loads of film, as well as my little Samsung Compact 35mm camera.Continue reading “Norway 1993”

Back to Belgium in B/W
In the late spring/early summer of 1993, I was off on my travels again. I’d had such a great time in Scandinavia a couple of years earlier, travelling around by train, that I decided I’d do it again!

Finishing off the last roll of Fuji Acros 100
I had a few frames left on my last roll of Fuji Acros 100, in 35mm format, that was sat in the Pentax ME Super, so a visit to the local garden centre provided a subject. Nothing spectacular – although I did like the display of paper lanterns and they were already black and white!Continue reading “Finishing off the last roll of Fuji Acros 100”
