The A31 speeds past Ringwood as a dual carriage way. At the end of part 6 of this ever growing epic, I got back to my parked car, just by the side of said A31. This time I start walking from just the other side of it. For those who may walk the whole trailContinue reading “35mm: Takumar Trek Pt7”

35mm: Seeing Red
Not exactly a wordless post – but very nearly. Today’s theme: Red! Chatter: Leica M6 with Zeiss Biogon 35mm lens Fuji 400 Superia. Lab processed but scanned at home.
35mm: Pilford Colour Pt2
Another small collection from my roll of Fuji 400 X-tra today. I do like close up details of old cars, especially the hood ornaments and trim in black and white. More modern cars, and I use the term quite loosely here – I think I prefer colour! I made the photo above, mainly for theContinue reading “35mm: Pilford Colour Pt2”
Pilford: Colour!
I had a single use camera – a Fuji Quicksnap hanging around – it was a freebee that came my way a while ago. It was time that I used it up and was out-of-date by a year already. Why would I use a “suc” when I have an underused Leica M6 was the question?Continue reading “Pilford: Colour!”
35mm: Bere Regis
Shortly after the coronation of the king, I stopped off at the little village of Bere Regis. I’ve covered the church in a post before here. On that visit I used up some Foma 200 and moaned that it was a little slow for the interior – this time I had FP4 and therefor hadContinue reading “35mm: Bere Regis”
Pilford: Odds and Sods
I photographed several random things this year at the Pilford Heritage Show. I’ve covered the motorbikes, cars, tractors and so on, this time it’s a collection of images that has no central theme! Above is a “War of the Worlds” tractor! Now there’s a thing!! Below a “Bambi” mini campervan. Chatter: Ilford Delta 400 processedContinue reading “Pilford: Odds and Sods”
Church of St Peter and St Paul, Ringwood.
A while back I called in on the Church of St Peter and St Paul, Ringwood. I had a few shots left on a roll of FP4, so I figured I’d finish it off there. This building was built between 1853 and 1855, but there have been at least two earlier churches on the sameContinue reading “Church of St Peter and St Paul, Ringwood.”
35mm: Takumar Trek Pt6
You may remember in part 5 of this series I ended my walk by arriving in an industrial estate! Out on on the main road, and just a few yards on, stands “The Railway Pub and Kitchen”, a sure sign the railway was nearby. In fact the Ringwood station once stood right opposite. Now nothingContinue reading “35mm: Takumar Trek Pt6”
Pilford: Military
I have a feeling that at this years Pilford heritage Show, there were a few less military vehicles. I wonder if this is due to the cost of running this size of machine? I don’t really mean the “Willy’s Jeep” above but some of these beasts must guzzle diesel at a frightening rate! One orContinue reading “Pilford: Military”
The Tarrants: Pt5
As well as being a type of knot, and a moth(!) (Lycophotia Porphyrea), the Lovers True Knot is the pub that sits on the main road at Tarrant Keyneston. The B3082 is the main road from Wimborne to Blandford, two of the bigger towns in these parts. The road runs right in front of theContinue reading “The Tarrants: Pt5”
