Back!

Wow, has it really been that long since my last post? I had a bit of a manic last quarter of last year. A week long trip to Cumbria resulted in around 30 rolls of film to dev and print (still working on them) and finally, the sale of my house, at last! Will update with a new photo later today and try to resume semi regular weekly updates. Cheers, Guy

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 VII

Next up in the film swap series done with Kim is this from the first roll of film we swapped. As before, 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. One of my favorite from the roll.

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.
