From a trip to Mill Rd Cemetery in May about a month before my hip operation. @emdashman.bsky.social and @olu-gh.bsky.social made it a lovely day and I’m just getting round to the half frame photos from the Pentax 17 - the HC negs are a little contrasty for my taste so may tweak the print a bit.

Put on a fleece I hadn’t worn in over a year and found two things I’d thought I’d lost - the combi plan sheet loader I’m really pleased to have found!

As well as using the Koroll 24 in its proper role as a half frame camera you can remove the mask and get weird results like these ….. On balance I prefer the half frame option

I purchased my LCA from Russia years back and it has been modified for multiple exposures; not that I use that feature much. I acquired the LCA120 a couple of years back and now the Holy Trinity is complete with the exciting multi talented LCWide…I sold things… #believeinfilm #filmphotography

The Pentax 17 is possibly the only camera you’ll ever need - at our Son’s wedding last year I used it for some casual snaps as we waited around - flash for a bit of fill in on a dull morning - and in the evening for some slow shutter flash fun … #believeinfilm #filmphotography

One of the many versions of the Armagosa Motel and Opera House I’ve made - this one a split toned fb version. Sort of made famous for a brief moment as it appears in Lost Highway a brilliant David Lynch film. @ilfordphoto.com #FP4 and Fuji GW690II

Walking with a 135mm on the F2 always makes me look harder - I saw an octopus or “Ood” in this waterside tree by Rutland water. This is an iPhone snap obviously…

The other half frame camera I had with me on @halfframephotoday.bsky.social London meet up was the Koroll 24 a medium format half frame camera. I need to work on the frame spacing a bit when lining the numbers up but lots of promise… #believeinfilm #filmphotography

A camera I don’t use a lot but would never part with due to its simplicity mostly is my Fuji GW690 II. I had it loaded with @ilfordphoto.com HP5 on a visit to Hemsby a while back and made a print. #believeinfilm

We are booked onto a serviced pitch this weekend so I thought I’d make up a better waste water drain solution. I have a 3m flexible pipe that can fit on the end of these rigid sections so should be able to reach most drain locations.

Shared this before but as I haven’t made any prints recently here it is again. One of my favourite ways of using half frame is to construct not always perfect panorama images over three frames. The Pentax 17 is of course perfect for this. Catlabs 320 onto Ilford MG Pearl.

A day of mixed emotions - said goodbye to an old friend, renewed old friendships , used the new 1959 pen as I wandered from London Bridge to the church at Bermondsey so that was fun - I had 22.5 orange and red filters so played with those.

Just outside Warboys is the “Spooky Bridge” there are some YouTube “paranormal” videos about it. All nonsense of course but I had my Pentax 17 loaded with HP5 and made a print .

Half Frame has become a bit of an obsession over the last few years - been on the lookout for a lovely condition 1959 PenEE for ages at a reasonable price so I had to give in …. #believeinfilm

A little “unboxing” video. A few years back I ran one to one film and darkroom workshops. I priced them at an accessible level and received some criticism for doing so, I had my reasons but there must be some karma in the universe right ? Will share some of this with friends when I see them ….

I’ve been getting the superb Firstcall Photographic PRINTED catalogue through the post since I started using them in the 90s - it really is a super thing and they stock pretty much everything you can think you may need and things you didn’t for film and darkroom work. #believeinfilm

Been running film through my LCA recently and much enjoying the experience. Mine was purchased from a Russian seller years ago and is modified to take multiple exposures…. Recock the shutter with a paper clip in that slot on the base 😆
