Another pinhole pic taken on the fantastic ONDU 6×6 Pocket pinhole camera!
Thurne Mill in Norfolk, dates from 1820 and was built by local millwrights England & Co. to drain the marshes, creating land for farming.
Ronald (Bob) Morse purchased the then derelict mill in 1949 and within 18 months the tower was restored. Bob passed away in 2007 and the mill is now in the care of Debra Nicholson with help from The Friends of Thurne Mill.
I shot a full roll of film here, in less than half an hour… unusual for someone who can have a roll in a camera for up to a year!
The Lion Inn at Thurne is definitely worth a mention too, we had an excellent lunch there and the selection of beers on offer was fantastic!

An image from the second roll of film through my Ondu 6×6 Pocket pinhole camera…
I’m still getting to grips with how wide an angle of view this camera has, the 25mm focal length of the Ondu pinhole has roughly the equivalent angle of view of a 14mm lens on 35mm or full-frame digital!

I make no apologies for posting yet another image from the Ondu 6×6 Pocket Pinhole camera… I love it!
This is the last image on my first roll and I’m finally starting to get close enough to the subject.
These shellfish creels and lump of weathered wood were found beside what I think is the harbour master’s cottage at Cove and I popped the camera on the doorstep to take this pic!

Another pinhole pic from a recent visit to Craster in Northumberland.
This winch is quietly rusting away beside the harbour and only a couple of feet away from the bench where we tucked into a picnic lunch…
Again, I could’ve done with getting much closer with the wide-angle Ondu camera!

Another pic from a recent visit to Craster in Northumberland, this time taken on the ONDU 6×6 Pocket pinhole camera.
Last weekend’s trip north came just a couple of days after I received my camera in the post so I just had to take it!
I’ve not yet got the hang of getting close enough to the subject with the camera’s wide 115° angle of view (and no viewfinder) but I’m sure practice will make perfect!
Chimneys, Long Eaton, April 2019
Olympus OM-20, Zuiko Auto-S 50mm f/1.8, 1/250s, f11 – Foma Retropan 320
Developed in Ilford DDX at 1:4, 10 mins at 20°c.
It’s taken me over a year to finish this roll of Foma Retropan 320 and although the results are better than the roll I shot in Norfolk last year (in the then on loan Fujica GW 690) I still don’t think I’ll be rushing to buy any more…
This roll only had one damaged frame but the lack of contrast and ‘fluffy’ grain still aren’t to my taste. If anyone has any tips for exposing and/or developing this film to get the best out of it then please let me know…

An image from one of my last ‘pre-lockdown’ photographic forays…
Redhill Quarry, near Middleton in the Derbyshire Dales is now a nature reserve and picnic area and I had the place to myself on the bleak January day that I chose to visit (I was ‘social distancing’ before it was a necessity).
I can’t help feeling that the isolated picnic table has far more meaning now than when I photographed it…
