Pylon Down… In colour!
Seagull 4A, Haiou-31 75mm f/3.5 – 1/60s, f4 – Kodak Portra 160 rated at ISO 100
Yes it’s that pylon again! I think this is its first time in colour though…
I’ve recently started re-digitising some of my older negatives to take advantage of the Negative Lab Pro plug-in for Lightroom that’s now part of my workflow.
The original scan of this image was quite cold, not how I remember that particular evening’s light at all but Negative Lab Pro’s conversion is pretty much spot on!

Lytham St. Anne’s
Kershaw 450, exposure details not recorded – Ilford XP2 Super
Not Lytham St. Anne’s the place but Lytham St. Anne’s the steam locomotive… or parts of it anyway!
This locomotive was built by Peckett & Sons in 1949 as works no.2111 and was used at Blackpool Gasworks. After intial preservation at Lytham St Anne’s it moved to the Midland Railway-Butterley in 1990 where it ran for six years before being withdrawn for overhaul.

Ondu 6×6 Pocket Pinhole + ND8 filter, 75s, f167 – Kodak T-Max 100
Developed in Ilford Ilfotec DD-X at 1:4, 7 mins at 20°c.
I did get out with my ONDU 6×6 Pocket pinhole camera last Sunday for Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day and managed to get through a couple of rolls of film…

Park Square, Sheffield
Seagull WWSC-10, Haiou 75mm f/3.5 – 1/60s, f11, – Fuji Velvia RVP 50 (expired August 1997)
An image from Expired Film Day 2023.
A couple of years ago a pal (Hi Simon!) gave me a quantity of Fuji Provia RDP II 100 and Velvia RVP 50 slide film that had all expired in 1997 or 1998. A bit of research suggested exposing it at box speed and cross my fingers for reasonable results.
Even though I bracketed my exposures this year, every frame of this roll is terribly underexposed… atmospheric though!
