My degree project continues. These are some more emerging content for my edit on being just outside or in-between AONBs The fly-tipping is an interesting one in that I was on the team that introduced Landfill Tax. My role as Business Analyst on that project saw beyond the revenue take and green aspirations at the […]
Swansong
Photographing on the edges for my degree project discovers hidden gems in this fine county of Suffolk. This picture just off the Strand outside the AONB by the width of a road was a surprise find.
Wrong side of the track 2………….
Today has been a whirlwind of a day. Truly and most utterly inclement weather this morning saw a delayed start to UCS work with renewing AOP membership, ordering even more film (where does it all go?) and then calling Sam Mellish of ‘Roadside Britain’ fame to ask if he could help out with our degree […]
Medium format Bronica SQAi
I do not use this camera as often as I should. The results in this post speak volumes for both Kodak Portra 400 and the stunningly sharp lenses. The 50mm wide angle is about as sharp as it gets. These two images shot on Portra 400 look so different to the large format images […]
Hare(sic) today, gone tomorrow
Yesterday I went to Wickham Market to view City and Guilds needlework exhibits. Some stunning work executed by the exhibitors with very clever use of form and colour. On the way in there were two Alvis cars of differing models and was lucky enough to get to talk to the owners of the green one […]
More test results from Portra 800 and Fuji GW670III
I’ve just had a roll back and scanned it on an an Epson V750 pro. These images taken in bright winter sunlight at either 1/250th to 1/500th second at F27. Other than some spot removal, a small crop here and there and sharpening nothing else has been done. Very intense colours, quite contrasty, just as […]
Fuji GW670III
I have been testing a Fuji GW670III for the last few weeks with different films. I have used TriX ISO 400, and Portra 800. The nearest thing I have used camera-wise is an Olympus Trip 35 – only because it is a rangefinder and there the comparison ceases. I have found myself using the Fuji […]
Large Format Portra 400
I’ve been a bit tardy of late with many other tasks to undertake but here are two examples of Kodak Portra 400 shot on my Toyo View 45C. Obviously the reduction in file size will have compromised the copies here but the detail and visual data knocks the spots off digital (in my view). These […]
