Mamiya C330, Mamiya-Sekor 80mm f/2.8 – 1/2s, f11, – Kodak T-Max 400
Developed in Ilford Ilfotec DD-X at 1:4, 8 mins at 20°c.

Snow kept me indoors last weekend so I attempted some still-life photography using a Mamiya C330f twin-lens reflex camera and a rather interesting accessory called a paramender… I’ll be writing about this setup next week.

Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8, pixl-latr and Negative Lab Pro plugin with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.

Seagull WWSC-10, Haiou 75mm f/3.5 – 1/125s, f11, – Ilford FP4 Plus
Developed in Adox FX-39II at 1:9, 6 mins at 20°c.

Handyside Bridge spans the River Derwent in Derby and used to carry the Great Northern Railway’s (GNR) Derbyshire and Staffordshire extension from Eggington Junction to Colwick.

You can now walk across the bridge from Darley Park to Chester Green… to the Little Chester Ale House should that appeal 😁

An image from a recent(ish) trip to Norfolk… I absolutely love the ONDU 6×6 Pocket pinhole camera but no matter how often I think I’m too close to my subject, I’m never close enough!
