Sorting out the archives

 

After dusting off the archives, I came across some oldies that I thought I'd post.  Nothing special, just some interesting ones from back home.

Overly cast...

Had to share this one that was taken a couple of weeks ago using the DSLR.  The skies were dark and although we had to run home through the rain, it was worth it.  Nice to know that places like this are right on our doorstep...

The Art of Flight...

Came across this the other day...simply beautiful and I'm sure the full video is going to be amazing if this is anything to go by...

all for nothing?

Turns out I didn't load the film right in my 35mm... :( so I'm starting again. A little gutted to say the least, but that's my life. At least my medium format is nearly at an end, only a couple of pics left! Now that I've re-loaded my 35mm, when I wind the next exposure into place, the winding mechanism feels a little 'clunky' - not sure if this is normal...we'll see.

"fingers crossed"

I suppose when things like this go wrong, some things in life are designed to pick you back up - i.e. warm apple pie, lashings of custard and a good cuppa...

Classics and other

Not everything is black and white around me... I love playing around with different effects and thought I'd share a couple of creations here. A mere splash of colour never hurt...

      

   

The girl's done well...

Here are a few photos that my girlfriend took using her DSLR.  It was a beautiful day in the Peak District near Edale and whilst I was eating flies on my bike, she was having a bit of a trek...here are the results.

I think I might be slowly converting her to use black and white a little more often! Good times ahead...
