Bath On Film

Back in February I went on a day trip to Bath with the boy and a couple of friendly Photosoc-ers. We wandered about, took photos, ate bagels in Queen Square, took photos, had coffee, took photos...
These are all from a roll of Rollei RPX 400 shot in my Pentax K1000 with 50mm 1:2 lens if you're interested in that sort of thing. More of my photos (but not these yet) can be found on my Flickr photostream. The XL photo size wouldn't fit in my theme but I think these will enlarge if you click on them. They were all developed & scanned by that lovely, useful boy of mine.

All photos by me, if you'd like to use them in a non-profit creative way I'm flattered, but please let me know & link back here.

Winter Sunshine

SO Christmas has happened, there's been lots of snow & coldness... Have some sunshine!






I seem to have a habit of photographing plants when in Bristol. You'd think I was from the countryside or something...



Photosoc socials - best made of yummy tea, old cameras and warm laziness. The extreme contrastyness in this photo is down to a) the intense sunlight coming in through the glass front of the café and b) my cack-handed film skills. I shot a roll of 400 speed black and white film as though it was 1600 (on purpose) with the intention of "push" processing it (developing it for longer) to make it look more interesting and possibly contrasty. However I got it mixed up with another roll of the same film and accidentally developed it for the normal length of time only... So it came out *very* contrasty! I rather like the effect on some shots though, just a shame I wasn't expecting it.

All these photos were taken on my Pentax ME Super, click through to my Flickr for details/more :)
