Photography & General Ramblings…
Colourful sterns, Langley Mill Basin
Canon EOS 300, EF 50mm f/1.8 II, 1/60s, f5.6 – Fujifilm Velvia 100F (expired 2/2013)
Yet another image from Expired Film Day 2025.
These narrow boats are moored at Langley Mill canal basin at the junction of the Cromford and Erewash Canals.

Yang Fujia Building
Canon EOS 300, EF 50mm f/1.8 II, 1/60s, f8 – Fujifilm Velvia 100F (expired 2/2013)
Yet another image from Expired Film Day 2025.
This is a small section of the Yang Fujia Building on the Jubilee Campus, University of Nottingham. The striking structure was designed by Ken Shuttleworth and is named after former University Chancellor Professor Yang Fujia.
Aspire, by Ken Shuttleworth
Canon EOS 300, EF 50mm f/1.8 II, 1/180s, f8 – Fujifilm Velvia 100F (expired 2/2013)
Another image from Expired Film Day 2025.
Aspire, designed by Ken Shuttleworth is a 200ft tall steel sculpture on the Jubilee Campus of the University of Nottingham and was, until overtaken by Anish Kapoor’s Orbit, the tallest free standing public work of art in the United Kingdom.
Definitely one of those occasions when I wish I’d packed a shorter focal length lens than 50mm!

Lyme Bay
Fujichrome
Some more Fujichrome from 2001 for today’s Slide Film Sunday.
I think both images are from the same day in September and as usual I’ve no idea of which camera, lens or exact film stock were used!
Chesil Beach
Fujichrome
Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 and Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.
Great Western Railway 4900 class 4-6-0 5900 HINDERTON HALL
Fujichrome
Some more Fujichrome from 2001 for today’s Slide Film Sunday.
This Great Western Railway (GWR) 4900 ‘Hall’ class 4-6-0 steam loco was photographed at the Didcot Railway Centre in Oxfordshire… another place I really must revisit!
Again I’ve got no idea of the details of this dimly lit interior shot other than the film is probably Fujichrome Sensia and I almost certainly wasn’t using a tripod!

Ullswater, 1995
Another image from 1995 for today’s ‘Slide Film Sunday’.
This trip to the Lake District was only a few days after the weekend at Santa Pod but much more than that I can’t tell you… I do remember standing in the lake with my tripod and also how cold the water was!

Koffel’s Place
Fujichrome Sensia 100
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!

A couple of images from Minster Lovell Hall in Oxfordshire from June 2001 for today’s Slide Film Sunday.

Wells Cathedral, June 2001
Fujichrome
OK, maybe trying to hand-hold a camera loaded with slow slide film inside Wells Cathedral wasn’t my best idea ever but I’m still rather fond of this image from June 2001.
Digitised using Nikon D5600 & AF-S Micro-NIKKOR 40mm f/2.8 and Nikon ES-2 Film Digitising Adapter with minimal cropping and tweaking in Lightroom Classic CC.
Burbage Brook, January 2001
Nikon F90X Pro(?) – Fujichrome
A couple of images from January 2001 (or possibly December 2000… I’m not sure) for today’s ‘Slide Film Sunday’.
As usual I’ve no notes for these images but I’m reasonably sure the camera/film combo was Nikon F90X Pro/Fujichrome Sensia.
