Travel: The Temple of Horus at Edfu

Back in 2000 I went on a trip to Egypt. I took my Bronica ETRS, with the 75mm lens and the 45mm, a couple of backs and the meter. I also took a Canon Zoom 60! I’m slowly, in fact very slowly, working my way through the negs scanning them. Back in the day theyContinue reading “Travel: The Temple of Horus at Edfu”

Travel: In a hole in the ground..

After wandering about the Valley of the Kings, in the heat of the day it was a welcome break to venture underground and slightly cooler temperatures! At this point in time I can’t remember which tombs I went in and which I didn’t, and to make matters worse I can’t find my travel diary either!Continue reading “Travel: In a hole in the ground..”

Travel: Valley of the Kings

Just over the hill from the Valley of the Queens, lies the more famous Valley of the Kings. More famous because of one out of 65 tombs, (known so far) and that is the tomb of King Tut Ankh Amun. In case you haven’t read any of the other posts in this series, I visitedContinue reading “Travel: Valley of the Kings”

Travel: Egypt Valley of the Queens

Today I’m covering another day of my trip to Egypt. This time, I cross the Nile from Luxor to visit the Valley of the Queens. For those of you who’ve read the first two posts, you’ll know I took with me a digital video camera, a Canon Zoom 60 and as my main camera aContinue reading “Travel: Egypt Valley of the Queens”

Travel: Luxor, Egypt

A couple of weeks ago I wrote about the start of a trip I made to Egypt. You can read part one here if you wish. I had with me my Bronica ETRS, with a couple lenses and backs. Since that post I’ve had time to scan a couple more films, and thought today, IContinue reading “Travel: Luxor, Egypt”

645: When the sun starts to set

I like photographing as the sun gets low, I like the warm light and the length of the shadows. The images above and below were made on the fields that lead up to Maiden Castle, just to the south of Dorchester, on Fuji Reala. The image below is of the Fleet Lagoon that sits betweenContinue reading “645: When the sun starts to set”

Millennium Dome

The other day while pulling the “Egypt” negative sheets out of the file for scanning, I noticed that the next film along was a roll of black and white Fuji NP400. The film was discontinued in 2013, about the same time as the original Acros was introduced I think. I can’t find a “birth-date” forContinue reading “Millennium Dome”

Travel: Egypt

Not too long ago I purchased an Epson V600 scanner, mainly so I could scan 120 film. This was for two reasons. I now have a Hasselblad camera and need to scan new work. The second reason is that I’ve had a few medium format cameras over the years and would like to scan someContinue reading “Travel: Egypt”
