Digital: The Coronation

I’ve had a three day break over the weekend. Saturday the weather was wet and horrible. I watched the coronation on TV. Yesterday the weather was actually quite nice, and we had our own garden party after a fashion, which was very enjoyable, and most of us consumed far too much alcohol. Today the weatherContinue reading “Digital: The Coronation”

6X6: Hengistbury Head

I took the Hasselblad out to Hengistbury Head a few days back. If you feel so inclined there is a really informative Wiki page which can be found here.

First and Last

NOT a post moaning about film prices! I just brought another roll of Fuji’s Superia X-tra 400. The last surviving of the Superia range that once had a full line up of both 100 and 200 asa emulsions. I came across it for £12:99. By modern standards a bargain! Look at Amazon… .. but asContinue reading “First and Last”

Tacita Dean – Super 8

“Super 8 taught me time and how not to waste it. It taught me about light and how to look through a lens. But mostly it instilled in me an unshakable love of film. Super 8 is the perfect short form. A synthesis of time, place and experience distilled in to three minutes of evanescentContinue reading “Tacita Dean – Super 8”

The True Meaning?

A while ago I inherited, a collection of glass plate negatives. How these came to me and why, is part of the story and part of their value to me. There are about 450 of them. I can tell you a box containing that many glass plates is heavy – very heavy! As I haveContinue reading “The True Meaning?”
