Being English I never played baseball, in fact I tried my best not to play anything at all most of the time, sports wasn’t and still isn’t my thing. When I couldn’t get out of it, the closest I ever got to baseball was “rounders”. I have no idea what the similarities or differences areContinue reading “Single Photo: Baseball”

Phoenix II
Harman have released another colour film. Between version I & II there was a redscale effort, but frankly, who’s interested in that? Obviously they had some version I to shift! Version II however seems to be a good step forward. Let me start by saying that I support Harman’s attempt at a colour film. It’sContinue reading “Phoenix II”
Wings at “Wings and Wheels”
On the “Wings” side of things – all the planes were small and light, it’s that type of show. The sort of planes that you or I may own and fly if we could. During the course of the day many flew in and out – most taxied to the display field, at 1pm itContinue reading “Wings at “Wings and Wheels””
The Flower
I’d venture a guess that we’ve all purchased a bunch of flowers, and at some point between the shop and getting them in a vase broken one off. I did just that the other week, it was such a lovely bloom I couldn’t bring myself to just dump it, so I popped it in aContinue reading “The Flower”
Hood Ornaments
In this small selection of images made at the “Wings and Wheels” event, I concentrate on hood ornaments. All of these images were made with the Canon EOS 30, the 40mm STM lens and on Delta 100. I developed the film in Crawley’s FX55.
Wings & Wheels 2025
This weekend just gone I went to this years “Wings and Wheels” show. I remember going to an early one, maybe the 2nd or 3rd, and I’m amazed to find out that this year, 2025, is the 25th! It takes place at Henstridge Airfield, which in itself is interesting. Although it seems like it’s atContinue reading “Wings & Wheels 2025”
Single Photo: Wisley Manor
This is the “old manor” at Wisley. Made with my Olympus OM2n with the Zukio 50mm f1.8. A simple lens and not expensive either, but it’s a good one! Likewise nothing expensive with the film either – Kodak Gold.
Bonsai Alley
When I went to Wisley Gardens a couple of weeks back, I also used a roll of Kodak Gold colour as well as the roll of Kentmere 200 I’ve already shared. Unlike that roll I used in the Nikkormat FT2 with the 35mm lens, this was exposed in the Olympus OM2n with the 50mm ZukioContinue reading “Bonsai Alley”
Back to the Quay
At the end of my visit to Brownsea Island, within Poole Harbour, I caught the ferry back to Poole Quay, where I had started and the car was parked. It was busy, and the ferry was full. The image above was made from the top, open deck looking back down the queue. We all gotContinue reading “Back to the Quay”
St Mary’s Church, Brownsea Island
St Mary’s Church on Brownsea Island looks over the green, most people pass it as they start one of the many walks to explore the island. It was built in 1853/4 and was consecrated that same year by the Bishop of Salisbury, the Right Rev. Walter Kerr Hamilton, on 18 October 1854. The Diocese ofContinue reading “St Mary’s Church, Brownsea Island”
