Housekeeping, its a good thing.

From My Lens January 17, 2021

I’m sat here putting the finishing touches to the website update, with a little more time on my hands, whilst we are in this post Xmas / New Year lockdown.

Since my reacquiantance into film, I have added sections relating to Street 35mm & 120, and People 35mm & 120.

Whilst this makes the website a little more lumpy in navigation, I have noticed my shooting style differs greatly between the 3 genres.

Whilst I still carry my digital camera on my walks, I using it more for video, as this is something that I want to develop in 2021, short videos for instagram reels and stories.

Here’s a selection of film and digital images I have taken in 2021:

I mentioned in a previous blog post that the film community is alive and fully supportive, I had a lovely exchange with someone on Instagram, who read my recent blogpost on film photography and wanted to scratch their film itch.

I sent over an email, with some links to camera reviews, resources and blog posts that I have found invaluable. Film is alive and well.

until next time, keep snapping.

A selection of the images within this article are available for sale on the Website or Etsy Store, if you would like to enquire about something else, please click the email icon at the foot of this page.

This was supposed to be the start of a new project, that I have had to defer. It's gone a little mental at work and also the house renovation
Brighton Beach, March 2025.

Developed a couple of rolls of #Kodakgold200 with @takeiteasylab

Turned out great, bearing in mind they expired 18mths ago.

The 2nd is slightly out of focus, muscle memory using the excellent #fujicags645s is a little rusty.

Saturday people. 

Not had much luck with the film camera collection, moving house, dinks and dents aplenty.

A little good news, was a hack I discovered for the faulty winder on my #Minoltax500. I love this camera, especially the 28mm #ro
Another frame from the recent #ilfordxp2 that I put through the #yashicamat124g. 

I love this film.  Have 8 x rolls incoming today, ready for the weekend. 

#6x6 #TLR
Decided to dust down the #yashicamat124g #TLR today. I normally get my film off the web, so paying £11.50 for a roll of #ilfordxp2 was a tad steep.

Love this film as I do the 124g.
Headed up to the dunes of Camber Beach at the weekend, as I'm thinking of starting a new photo project.
