A last minute weekend away to Dublin and a great excuse to try out some Fuji 800 film...plenty of Guinness flowing and some good craic to add to it too!
A very special week using my Dad's old Speed Graphic camera that I managed to get going again. Whilst I need more practice using this highly manual camera - it still works!
A week after starting my 52 week film project, my Leica suddenly broke! Thinking of out the box I found a disposable camera, although the results did not go as planned.
The results of my first week of my '52 rolls of film in 52 weeks' project are back. I'm quite happy with the outcome of this very specialised Black & White film.
An ambitious project indeed: shoot 52 rolls of film in 52 weeks. To make it more interesting I am aiming to try 52 different types of film. This post marks the beginning of what should be a fun (and long!) journey.
All photographers are secretly plane spotters, we just don't admit it. Whilst I am not one for carrying ladders to look over the runway fence for a better shot, I do enjoy a bit of airplane photography.
Airplanes and cameras go hand in hand, especially if you get a window seat on a new 787 Dreamliner with the extra large windows. Here are some of my best shots (all shot with my Leica M6)
My recent "hand me down" from my Dad is a c. 1946 Speed Graphic 2x3 camera - complete with flash and one-use only bulbs - talk about going back in time! Here are my first impressions.
