Fragmented Holga

Test pano type shot with Holga & Velvia 100F. Not a great scan but a glimpse of something promising. Best viewed at full size.

Lung

I was going to leave the vaseline alone for a while but then I remembered I wanted to post this one. Besides, I haven't got the other stuff scanned yet ;) I can't remeber the tech details for this but I think it's HP5 in Prescysol.

Brutalism Revisited

Moving away from the film swap series for a moment. I've been meaning to get back to the Belfron Tower, Ernő Goldfinger's Brutialist 60's masterpiece, for a while now. I discovered on my arrive that I only had 4 shots left on my Diana and two of those I took with the 'B' setting accidentally on (again). Still, it's only a 15 min walk from where I live now. This is Delta 400, which I'm trying out as a replacement for Neopan 400 when stock go. Semi-stand developed in Rodinal 1+100 for 36mins. This is a scan from neg. Will see how it prints when I'm next in the darkroom but on initial inspection contrast looks good! Could be a nice (if rather expensive) replacement film.

London + Detroit VIII

Well more like Kent and Somewhere Outside Detroit! More from the film swap series done with Kim. Neopan 400 was shot by me, rewound back on the spool, sent to Detroit and the same roll was shot over and developed and printed by Kim.

London + Detroit VI

Continuing with the film swap series done with Kim, this is from the first roll of film we swapped. Neopan 400 was shot by me, rewound back on the spool, sent to Detroit and the same roll was shot over and developed and printed by Kim. This is Hoxton Square meets Detroit. I think we were both pretty amazed with the results of this film swap, and it really was the spur for me to do this blog.

Sheringham

Holga double expousure at Sheringham, Norfolk on a wet, grey day. Neopan 400, neg 'scanned' with my 30D.

Diana F+ & Neopan 400. No scanner or access to a darkroom at the moment so this is two negatives 'scanned' with a DSLR and combined in Photoshop.

Colour!

This is the first of a series of 'film swaps' I did with Kim. She shot a roll of film in Detroit and sent it to me and I exposed over the same roll of film, here in London. she sent me two colours rolls, one I cross processed, the other normal and I send her back a black and white which she printed.
