The day I had a walk around Dawlish Warren turned out to be a bright sunny day, even though it was mid-October. Bright enough that I decided I could use up my last roll of Pan-F from my film stash. There is talk with this film that the latent image degrades quite quickly once exposed,Continue reading “Pan-F at Dawlish”

The Wonder of film
Single photo: In Exmouth Harbour. Don’t get excited this is one of those “single photo” posts that I (and others) do every now and again. I was flipping through the scans of my last roll of Devon images and the one above caught my eye. I rather like it. We analogue fans, although I shouldn’tContinue reading “The Wonder of film”
More Colour from Dawlish
For those of you who have not read my previous posts relating to my recent Devon trip. I took my Canon EOS30, with the 40mm STM lens attached for a walk around Dawlish Warren, down in sunny Devon (UK). I had the film (Fuji C200) lab developed but scanned the negs on my Epson V600Continue reading “More Colour from Dawlish”
Colour at the Fair
I had a roll of Fuji C200 in the EOS, and what better place to get a few colour shots than at the fair – Chatter: Canon EOS 30 with 40mm STM lens, “New” Fuji C200. Lab developed, home scanned (along with the dust) 🙂
Onto Dawlish Warren
Having walked the entire length of the seafront in Dawlish on a glorious sunny October day, I continued on, passing behind Langstone Rock. The Langstone rock field (above) is just the other side of the rock. A haven for sea life that likes tidal rock pools. It is here that the sea wall and theContinue reading “Onto Dawlish Warren”
Dawlish: Sea Wall
Once I’d finished my quick walk around the town of Dawlish, I walked along the sea wall. It’s recently been completely re-built due to storm damage, and very impressive it is! The photo above is taken from the narrow old pier that juts out into the sea (below). From the same spot you can makeContinue reading “Dawlish: Sea Wall”
Dawlish
I still have another post to make about my visit to Exeter, but to have a little break I’m moving forward a day! I walked back to the same railway station as the day before, but took the train in the opposite direction. Down the estuary away from Exeter and along the coast to Dawlish.Continue reading “Dawlish”
Exeter: Walls
Having done a river walk, I moved to walking the walls of Exeter, or as much as I could. There are a few info boards here and there that tell the history and point the visitor in the right direction. For the purposes of a photo blog however, the plaque above perhaps says enough! BelowContinue reading “Exeter: Walls”
Exeter: River Walk
I was staying a short walk from the village of Starcross, on the river Exe. This has a train stop on the rail route that runs from Exeter, down along the side of the Exe Estuary, sometimes right on the very edge – more to come on that! Above the Class 166 DMU no 207Continue reading “Exeter: River Walk”
An old new church on sea
The photo above was taken on the sea wall of Teignmouth as I walked back to the car park. A fairly typical sea side view, but from the same spot turning 180 degrees, I made the photo below. By my calculations St Michaels in Teignmouth is about 30 meters from the sea! I looked upContinue reading “An old new church on sea”
