Wow, what a city. My first international travel in 4 years puts me in the middle of NYC. In hindsight, it’s a wild step back into traveling post covid. Incredible city, where I could easily spend a year just wondering around, taking photos and spending too much money on gear and developing. (and food).
Quite liked the Superia 200, though am falling out of love with the newer f1.4 lens. Which of course means I’ll just have to buy more gear right?….
I got ripped off in New York paying for this Fujifilm. 18 bucks a roll at a film store for 2 rolls, 2 blocks later in a CVS 3 rolls for $27.99. Can’t be mad, those NY rents would be punching them in the face. These few are from tripping around greater Vancouver, BC in August.
Not really. New to me 50mm f/1.4 and a few from the first roll developed.
Full transparency, I did not plan for a loose dev time/temperature experiment. I broke my long glass thermometer and had to guess at the developer temperature using a medical thermometer gun and an under tongue thermometer. Some of the results are below.
Met this small group of cows lounging by the side of the road. Came down the hill and pulled over immediately to get some shots of them as they ate. They were curious and friendly and didn’t mind me getting close. Grey day, shooting HP5 one stop up @800.
Images from a misty morning in August 2021. Includes a prime example of film getting stuck together due to a loader operator error (me) when loading the film onto the dev reel. Ilford FP4, Olympus om10.
A quick trip to Brisbane and a stroll around New Farm.
Lucky enough to live somewhere where the winter golden hour is a cracker. A series of images from winter walks.
Another batch of photos pre covid from Melbourne.
We were lucky to be Melbourne for 2 months just before covid wiped out the ability to travel. Collected here are very early efforts in photography. If it’s a good photo, consider it a lucky accident.
