I tend to go down the “still life “ path when the conditions aren’t ideal for my film camera, mirror lockup and no breeze inside makes me happy. #photography #analog #stilllife #believeinfilm #beermug #blackandwhite #christchurchphotographer

Pittosporum- I used a 49mm extension tube coupled to the 75mm lens to get the image. Just a little sliver of focus and I used the rising sunlight to highlight the scene. #photography #bronicaetrsi #ilfordfilm #analog #believeinfilm #blackandwhite #plants #closefocus
