Some street art from Sheffield today, photographed during a walk around the city organised by Andy Carter, better known as Street Art Sheffield.

There are pieces by two artists in the above photo, the upper piece is by Phlegm and is at least nine years old, the lower piece dates from 2022 and is by the artist Enso.

All three pieces of art can be found on Brown Street in the city centre.

I’m becoming increasingly interested in street art, it adds some much needed colour and interest to our towns and cities and there are some fantastic examples to be seen in Nottingham and Sheffield, two places I visit regularly.

Another image from Expired Film Day 2022.

Results from the second roll of Fuji Provia RDP II 100 (that expired in 1998) aren’t as good as from the first but they’re still much better than I was expecting!

Square Saturday… Waves, Sheffield

An image from Expired Film Day 2022.

A few months 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.

The original slides have a colour cast and are a little underexposed but nothing a little tweak in Lightroom couldn’t sort out!
