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 [...]

C-41, A Restrospective
In my first home, Tetinal, C-41 kit I managed to get through approximately 31 rolls of 120 film and 13 spools of 35mm film when the last roll was reduced to mushy pea soup. The first roll I home developed was a roll of FujiFilm taken with a Diana F+ as it was probably wasn’t [...]

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) [...]

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, [...]

My C-41 Developer Has Finally Died
… and it has taken two rolls of 120 with it. I lost one black & white Ilford X-Pro 400ASA C-41 I shot today, which I’m über pissed off about, and I lost an old roll shot with the Diana, not so much. Both rolls had virtually nothing on it. This also coincides with the [...]

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. [...]
