The Holga along with Pinhole and some SX70 photos have come closest to how I feel about the Fenlands where I live - steeped in history, social conflict , change and intensive farming , there’s a loneliness and often bleakness to the landscape.

And I had to make a darkroom print.

Exposed a roll of Kentmere 200 for the first time in the Rolleicord (Pic with homemade sloe gin and lemonade) from a friends wedding - developed in ID11 1:1 for the recommended time and made small prints with the Devere 504.
The whole thing gives me joy.

Thursdays are good - message me with some dates - darkroom and coffee

Going into the darkroom for a couple of hours is very easy and simple these days. The space is in the garage, I connect the water to our adjacent utility room, have stored developer and fix in brown bottles and a tray heater - up and running within 10 mins usually.
If it’s a chore it won’t happen.

I have a number of box cameras including this one - these are excellent and make me want to use mine more

A fine choice of film for this it seems - love it

Keep staring at this - the part form and arm and the guy in the background - all work to frame a story .::

These beach / surf pictures are so well observed

Isn’t it one like this ?

I purchased 10 for my Meopta colour head and 10 for my 504 ages ago very cheaply on eBay

It’s the rebirth of the older “Lensless Podcast” of which there are another 143 shows to listen to - on a separate feed

@philwalker.bsky.social - getting this slightly distressed edging which I quite like - from a wedding I went to recently with the Rolleicord V

Going in to see how it looks with some prints

I use card too but I like the idea of a “signature” look on certain prints - I have options

Fortunately the Devere 504 masks are plentiful and folks are making printed ones as well

Today in the land of the semi retired I will mostly be up to no good with a file …..

Looks awfully similar to my Meopta Magnifax 4 colour head

Glad you’re getting some use from it - my original version is on the shelf and you prompted me to get it attached to the F2

It pays to shop around - Carmarthen Camera - came in 2 days (other more popular “wonder” stores take note please) and at £67 delivered .
Been using a lot of Kentmere 400 as well but nice to have more of the old favourite

When we were in Athens in 2017 we had a meal at a grill bar and this young lady , Conner Brooke was performing.
I made this pinhole portrait of her and only yesterday did I track her down via IG and email her a copy. She sent me a lovely thankyou email back.

Excellent - I e had my Pen EE for years but really fell into love with half frame with the Pentax 17 - the H35n would be a welcome addition
