Monochrome Monday… Shopper Shadow

I’m still struggling to find any motivation for photography at the moment and that’s translating into a lack of posts here… But I have exposed a couple of rolls of film this past couple of weeks and I’m hoping to start on my developing backlog tomorrow.

In this post I mentioned how looking at old(er) images can be interesting from a point of view of seeing what’s changed locally and the above image is an example of that.

This alleyway linked two of the main shopping streets in town and although it’s still accessible from the other end, this end is now home to a carpet shop!

A photo from this time two years ago, taken during one of my frequent wanders around the City of Sheffield.

If memory serves it was taken for an architectural photography challenge on Twitter…

Konica Big Mini, Konica 35mm f/3.5 – JCH Street Pan 400
Developed in Ilford DDX at 1:4, 9 mins at 20°c.

I recently dropped my Konica Big Mini and apart from a couple of tiny scratches it appeared to have survived my clumsiness but of course the true test would come from further use…

This roll of JCH Streetpan 400 had been in the camera for a while so I decided to finish it off during a stroll around town, thankfully the camera seems to be working fine.
