Taken at Brough Haven a month ago (film takes time a-cookin’).

An analogue take on this.

A fanfare of daffodils announces the arrival of Spring in East Yorkshire. I‘m not sure whether it came in over the Humber Bridge or up the M62, but it‘s here.

Taken with my newly acquired (via eBay) Vredeborch Felica – the “posh toy camera”. Cross processed, naturally.

Life’s A Gas

A piece of river debris seen whilst walking along the Humber bank. I took this photo with my old Contax 139 SLR on 35mm Fujichrome Provia. The film expired in December 2003 and was cross processed at a local lab.

I’ve only just started using film again after something like eight years and I love it – in fact this is from my first decent roll (the previous roll I shot was badly fogged due to light leaks, but more about that in another post). The organic feel that film gives the image is just superb. But at the same time it really opened my eyes to the purity of colour and clarity that can be achieved with digital.
