tiny exclusive

A tiny exclusive for you, from a small selection of photographs taken last week on my Yashica Mat 124G (my favourite camera).

The lot will be uploaded to Flickr after the weekend.

Thankyou

i miss college and sarah sparks

This is a bit of an oldie, a final piece for my college exhibition in 2008.

I was just thinking about the college days and how much I really miss them, although I am still studying Photography now at university, its not quite the same as college.

The main reason I think is my college tutor Sarah Sparks, she's probably one of the best and most inspiring Photography tutors there is. I don't think I'll meet any other tutors like her.

She always told you what she really thought and kept on pushing you to bring out the best work you could possibly produce. With a bit of acting silly and time out for gossip on the side.

Anyone studying under Sarah best realise how lucky they are.

And congratulations on your upcoming winter wedding!

old film, finally developed

re-scanned cross processed negatives

I decided to re-scan some of my black and white negatives that I never had time to print in college, and ended up scanning in alot of my old cross processed film that I had had processed and printed commerically and then just scanned the print.

I'm so suprised at the quality of colour and brightness that my scanner (CanoScan 8800F) is capable of doing from negatives.

So here are some of those images, including a long lost image that they decided never to print for me assuming it wasnt worth it!

^long lost image^

I will of course be uploading my re-scans of old black and white film in due course, including some that I've never even seen myself!
