Rediscovered my #MPP Micro Technical after many years. After some recommissioning, I have been using it for some #abstract #urban #landscape studies. Here’s a couple of examples. #largeformatphotography #filmisnotdead #fomapan #4x5 #filmphotography #blackandwhite #believeinfilm

Spent some more #studio time working on #StillLife ideas. Not quite sure where I’m going with this, but doing it anyway.

The UK government was just defeated in the House of Lords for a *fifth* time over AI training data transparency.

Please watch the electrifying end to Baroness Kidron's closing speech ahead of the vote. Creators have no greater champion.

Made #cyanotype prints from inkjet negatives today. The hot pressed #watercolor paper seems to benefit from two coats of emulsion.

Went to my local art house cinema see ‘I Am Martin Parr’ last night, with a couple of my old art school buddies. Back in the day Martin was one of our tutors. Great watch, thoroughly recommend #socialdocumentary #streetphotography #documentaryphotography
