Jim Graves is apparently an invalid handle

Kentmere is an excellent film. I'm an Ilford shooter too, but I don't mind having fun with the cheaper emulsions. I could quite happily use Kentmere 400 for the rest of my days. 👍

Nice work.

How are you liking the Kentmere film? I used their paper many decades ago but have always been an Ilford shooter in the past. Just can't get any for less than $13 a roll. Kentmere and Tri-X is coming in at $8.

Another random photo memory. Broadway Car Spares, Stoke Newington Church Street in 1978 or 1979. I shot this with a Fujica ST705W using Ilford Pan F for reasons unknown all these years later. The shop was an estate agents when I last saw it a few years ago.

Black and white photo of a log left after a tree has been felled in a small park. The frost has transformed it and its environment in a magical way.

I left for good. I needed 2 get away from its tourism, its disneyfication. Now I am the fickle tourist & walk amongst its magestic buildings taking snaps of its shapes and textures

Ilford HP5 Plus demonstrates reliability and tonal versatility in an industrial shoot at a historical engine factory, with forgiving grain enabling strong black-and-white storytelling in challenging light; https://s.kdprt.de/tCzyqx
