Finally from the “Wings and Wheels” show – a selection of wings! Most of the plane photo’s were made with my Canon 75-300mm EF. I don’t do much long lens work these days, in fact this is the only 300mm lens I own now. It comes out for the odd air show now and again.Continue reading “Wings!”

Mudeford Quay Roll #2
A couple of weekends ago I went over to Mudeford Quay and walked the entire length of the promenade. I took my Lecia M6 with the Summicron 50mm lens. It’s not had an outing for a while, so it needed some exercise – so did I. I used up two rolls of Ilford Delta 100Continue reading “Mudeford Quay Roll #2”
Left Hand Drive
To celebrate the state visit of President Trump, or maybe just as I have some, I’m posting some left hand drive vehicles today. The black and white images here were made on Ilford’s Delta 100. I do like this film, it has rich tones and little grain. The colour images are on Kodak Ektar, anotherContinue reading “Left Hand Drive”
Mudeford Quay Roll#1
I recently went to Mudeford Quay. It is right on the county line in the east. There is a promenade that is, give or take, two and a half miles long. So a five mile walk out and back. I used a couple of rolls of Ilford Delta 100 which I developed in FX55. AboveContinue reading “Mudeford Quay Roll#1”
The Country Squire
When I went to the “Wings and Wheels” show, I parked up, on the rough field you see above, next row back was a Ford Country Squire from 1970. Not in the show, just parked there like everyone else. In the window the owner had popped a sign… It’s one year younger than me! AContinue reading “The Country Squire”
3 Wheels
When I went to the “Wings and Wheels” event, I already had a roll of Kodak Ektar in the Canon EOS 30, so the first images I made were in colour. After the hard work of scanning the roll of Phoenix II the other day, this was nothing short of a dream! All of theContinue reading “3 Wheels”
Single Photo: Baseball
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”
