Slide Film Sunday… Santa Pod Raceway

Wading through my film archive often requires detective work…

I’m reasonably certain these images are from the August bank holiday weekend in 1995. I’m also reasonably certain I’d got both my Nikon F-601 and F-801s loaded with slide film at the same time, this roll of Sensia 100 is marred by a hair trapped inside the camera, it shows up on every frame… the other roll (probably Agfa CT100) is fine.

I’ve also found a few rolls of colour negative film from the same weekend, they’re next to be digitised!

After a week’s enforced hiatus (laptop failure) Freelance Wastrel is back!

I love the effect the fisheye lens has on the straight lines of the architecture here…

A little while back I picked up a Nikon F65 35mm SLR camera for wifey from Harrison Cameras and shot a test roll of film almost immediately… What I didn’t do quite as promptly however, was develop the film!

Better late than never eh?

Sheffield University’s new Social Science building ‘The Wave’ had only been open for a couple of weeks when I photographed it in May this year. The 16,600sqm structure was designed by HLM Architects and cost £65m but complaints have recently been made that the building traps too much heat in hot weather causing a potential health and safety hazard!
