Wellington Hotel, Cromer
Canon EOS 5, Canon EF 28-135mm f/3.5-5.6 IS USM at 28mm, 1/90s, f8 – Ilford Delta 400 Professional
Developed in Ilford DDX at 1:4, 8 mins at 20°c.

Another image from the first roll of film through my charity shop find Canon EOS 5.

I loved how the sunlight (remember that?) projected the lettering on the door of the Wellington Hotel onto the doorframe. I’m not so keen on the obvious barrel distortion at the wide end of my Canon EF 28-135mm lens though…

Waterfront buildings on the River Wensum in Norwich, photographed on an unseasonably warm 18 March this year… also the very first image from a charity shop find Canon EOS 5, a camera I coveted in the early 1990s when using a Canon EOS 1000FN.

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!
