Ace of Base 👍 I'd add "7 Seconds" by Youssou N'Dour and Neneh Cherry And "Voyage Voyage" by Desireless, a few years earlier I think

Phil @philstrachan.bsky.social · 04/10/2026

I'm fine with digital black and white 🙂👍

Will do, reading around the Ilfosol 3 I use I'm realising it's more suitable for slower films. I'm not sure how good it is as a fly eraser 😁

Kyle McDougall was road testing a few sheets on his latest video, not sure if it's gonna be a 'go-er' though

Another couple of holiday snaps. MV Swan at Lake Windermere. Camera: Pentax K2 + SMC Pentax 50mm f2 (1st photo) / Takumar A 28mm f2,8 (2nd photo) Film: Ilford HP5+ Dev: Ilfosol 3, 1+9 dilution, 6min30 at 20C

Black and white photo of a small cruise ship called MV Swan at Lakeside, Lake Windermere. The photo shows a front quarter view with light reflecting off the water onto the hull as it turns towards the quayside. In the background, hills and trees. The boat was apparently built in 1938 at Barrow for the LMS Railway company with the sections transported by rail to Lake Windermere.

Aye, no many places seem to like the responsibility of looking after buildings themselves.

Spare steam locomotive boiler. I liked the patterns of rows of rivet heads and the mottled steel surface. Camera: Pentax K2 + SMC Pentax 50mm f2 Film: Ilford HP5+ Dev: Ilfosol 3, dilution 1+9, 6min30 at 20C #believeinfilm #filmphotography

Black and white photo of the outside of the firebox of a steam loco's boiler. There are rows of rivet heads. The mottled surface of the steel surface is visibile too.

Watching Ari in his 2CV and taking photos, he makes good videos.

The rail bridge over the Tay in Perth. Camera: Olympus Pen EE Film: Ilford XP2 Super #hff #halfframefriday #believeinfilm #filmphotography

A black and white photo looling across stones on the banks of the River Tay in Perth, over the water towards the rail bridge as it curves over Moncrieff Island. There are trees at either side of the bridge and a train is crossing as well.

That's the place Andrew, I spent a day and a half there 🙂

Lovely photo and I'm sorry to read about its fate. Hate when that kind of thing happens.

"Princess" (Fair warning, there are going to be quite a few photos of this loco.) Camera: Pentax K2 + SMC Pentax 50mm f2 Film: Ilford HP5+ Dev: Ilfosol 3, 6min30 at 20C #believeinfilm #filmphotography

A black and white photo of an old steam locomotive called "Princess" sitting at a platform with a carriage behind it. At the side is the arch of a footbridge across the railway track.

I had the same thought re the empty space, doing anything else conveys quite a different story.

Maybe they could have asked it to design something, a structure, then refine it, make it lighter, or more aerodynamic or something

Nice photos Steve, I like the one of the criss-cross patterns in the post and softly focused background. That's a shame about the shutter curtain. Do you think it could be repaired, or would you look out for another copy of that camera?

Phil @philstrachan.bsky.social · 23/09/2026

Sit back and breathe easy. Hopefully they get caught soon.
