films

I finally got around to developing some film – its been sat in my cameras for ages, a few from the Trip 35 and three from the Hassleblad. I’m going to try to take a few more photos this week as I’m up in the city every day – I just need to take an hour after work to point and shoot at a…

The films, they are back!

I’ve been waiting eagerly for these ever since I got the call on Thursday to say they were ready and being posted back to me.

Trip to York

York is a heritage town in the wheatbelt to the east of Perth. Its a fair old trek from where we live by the sea, so we packed the camera bags and headed out early as its a couple of hours drive through the forest and out into the fields. On the way we stopped off at a place that makes it own olive…

picture taking

so, after yesterday’s post – I have finally finished a 24 shot roll in the Trip 35. I’ll send it and the upteen rolls of 120 film off to be developed on Monday – hell, I might even take them in in person. Was a busy work day – the car was playing up as the garage somehow stuffed up tightening the new alternator…
