Flickr Slideshows

I thought I’d pull some slideshows together by tags. Each link will open in a new window. – Street – Polaroid – FED 3 – Zorki 4k – Mamiya Press Universal – Smena Symbol/Smena 6 Soon I’m going to have too much film to develop. I’ve been experimenting with blue flash filters and bulb mode [...]

An Interesting Article on Film Photography and Lomography

I’ve had a love/hate thing with my Diana for as long as I’ve had it/her but I still go back, especially now that I have the instant back, but I do love Lomo. I know I love Lomo because I’ve just bought another Smena (Smena 6) camera since my first Smena camera (a Smena Symbol) [...]

More Instant Photography, Diana Instant/Polaroid Land Camera

More instant shots and this time: Anna’s first haircut! -

Instant! via Diana Instant Back

I’d recently got a hold of a nice wee supply of FujiFilm Instax Mini packs so here’s a wee idea of how I wasted the shots:   I stripped off the white cover and backing of this shot to reveal the interesting insides: For more, check out my Diana Flickr Set. -

Anna Dodging the Bath Again, Diana Instant Back

As usual, Anna tries her best to dodge the bath despite loving it when she’s in it and hating it when told to get out of it. Here’s my favourite shot with the Diana Instant Back so far (that’s the Olympus Trip XB40 AF she’s got): Here’s two other shots I liked in some way [...]

Diana Instant Back

I’d been getting all greetin’ faced about the results I’d been getting from the Diana but I’m now about to do a popular Political U-Turn and say I’m now back in love with Diana. The Diana Instant Back takes Fuji’s Instax Mini film which offers 10 shots and is actually pretty tiny, credit card sized, [...]

Diana, Lets Call it a Day

Although I have one un-developed roll of 120 I think my love affair with Diana is over. I tweeted that I might go Instaback but I think it costs about £60 for that back and well, maybe but I’m not sure. I’d loaded a roll of Kodak Ektachrome 100Plus Colour Reversal film. The roll didn’t [...]

The Negatives

These are the first negatives I’ve developed in about 15 or 16 years, and they were black and white, so here’s my first ever developed colour negatives:

… And Finally

It’s been a long time coming (a month or so) but I’ve finally developed my first batch of negatives. Successfully. I think. At least they haven’t turned black yet. It was a roll of 120 from the Diana and it was an unnecessary ordeal thanks mainly to the freakin’ bottles I used for the chemicals. [...]

Camera Collection (so far)

Using Lou’s camera I photographed all of my current stills cameras. Still to come is a Mamiya Press 23 Universal, after that I think I’m done (for a while at least).
