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”
In the Wisley Greenhouse
The Royal Horticultural Society (try saying that whilst drunk!), have 5 “show” gardens in the UK. The closest one to me is in Wisley, just over half a kilometre from the M25, closest point to point! 6km from Guildford or Woking. I took and hour and a half to drive there – coming back theContinue reading “In the Wisley Greenhouse”
More Mono
A while back I cut a film out of the camera to develop quickly. It’s not something I do often, and to be honest, at this point I can’t remember what or why! However this left a 10 or so exposure for later use or for a test. Like many, the local Lloyds Bank closedContinue reading “More Mono”
Brownsea Island
A couple of weeks ago I made a visit to Brownsea Island. The island sits within Poole Harbour (Second largest in the world by area!), and is about 1.5 miles long and 3/4 mile wide and is of course only accessible by boat. It is basically owned by the National Trust but has a complicated history that includesContinue reading “Brownsea Island”

Kentmere 200
Having used Kentmere 100 and Kentmere 400, when Harman came out with 200 – of course I was going to try it. Analogue Wonderland had a deal and I was sending them a couple rolls of colour for processing, so I added a couple of rolls in! I exposed this roll in my Nikkormat FT2nContinue reading “Kentmere 200”
Last of the Colour – Dorset Spring Fair
I’ve been having a bit of a clear up on my laptop desktop. I tend to use it, stuff builds up and then I have a tidy up. Part of that is a folder for each film scanned. Each film I use is cut and put into a filing sheet, then into a folder. I’veContinue reading “Last of the Colour – Dorset Spring Fair”
Olympus OM2n (1979)
I wrote about my Olympus OM1 not too long ago. That prompted me to dig out my Olympus OM2n and run a film through that too! It’s a classic for sure, many film users have one. For the record the original “2” was released in 1975. It’s claim to fame is that is was theContinue reading “Olympus OM2n (1979)”
