Title: I’ll Cross That Bridge When I Come To It…
Location: Benfleet, Essex
Camera: KMZ Moskva 5 / Industar-24 105mm f/3.5
Film: Ilford Delta 100
Notes: An improvement over yesterday’s pathetic effort, this was taken during a geocaching walk around some nice footpaths in Benfleet. Unfortunately it was still quite overcast and the ISO100 film meant I had to open up the aperture to the maximum f/3.5 which, combined with the 105mm focal lenght, has given a subtle, shallow depth of field.

Title: Squeezing Out The Photons
Location: At home
Camera: KMZ Moskva 5 / Industar-24 105mm f/3.5
Film: Ilford Delta 100
Notes: A shot best forgotten – taken at night when all other options had been exhausted. The neg was horribly under-exposed and I’ve had to squeeze every last photon out of it in post production. But it was the only picture of the day, so it has to stand.
