Liking this shot, nice one.

A couple from testing at Silverstone on Friday. No spectator access so garage and pit only.

This evening's walk

Was going through a box of mine that's full of photographs I took with 35mm film c.2014-2017. A lot of nice stuff too. Picked some of the best (IMO) ones to put on here. The quality has suffered a little since they're just cropped photographs from through my phone though.

 

 

^ The Jupiter Artland, Edinburgh. Praktica BCA/Pentacon 50mm 1:18 MC. Kodacolor 200 (IIRC).

 

 

^ Loch Doon (one for @roottoot), 2016 I think. Praktica BCA/Pentacon 50mm 1:18 MC. AgfaPhoto Vista Plus 200.

 

 

^ Dalmellington-Ayr Railway Line (was, and still is disused on this particular stretch), 2017. Olympus Trip AF-S 2. AgfaPhoto Vista Plus 200.

 

 

^ Mauchline, 2016. Praktica BCA/Pentacon 135mm. AgfaPhoto Vista Plus 200.

 

 

^ Bridge at Dumfries House, Cumnock, 2017. Praktica BCA/Pentacon 50mm 1:18 MC. AgfaPhoto Vista Plus 200.

 

 

^ Doonfoot Millennium Bridge, Ayr. Praktica MTL-3, Helios 44-2. Ilford HP5 Plus.

 

 

^ Belleisle Greenhouse, Ayr. 2017. Praktica MTL-3, Helios 44-2. Ilford HP5 Plus.

 

Plenty more photos in the box (looking for my ones from Falkirk, 2016 with a cheap Minolta), but that's plenty for now.

Thanks Mick.

 

The MTL3 was my first, it eventually failed so I moved to the later Bayonet mount Prakticas, starting with a lovely BCA before moving to the BMS I have now. I don't really use an SLR anymore because of how bulky the sods are, and trust me, I've even used a Zenit E!

 

I've been shooting with a nice wee compact point and shoot or two, a Minolta AFZ is the most recent for me. I used to have an AF-E (with quartz date printer, so basically a unicorn haha) but it just stopped working all of a sudden and I've never been able to sort it. Only been shooting Black & White the now because I can't get a hold of cheap colour negative anymore. Bought a roll of Kentmere 400 (still to be developed) when I was in Snappy Snaps in Glasgow after nearly passing out when he said it was £21 a roll for colour negative.

Not one for composition of the day award, the box of beer for a pillow may of had an influence…

One from the weekend… good morning sunshine.

Colin, if you are going to bury a body in the middle of nowhere, don't post a picture with it in shot. Unless it's a clever double bluff 

Heh it’s ok, I’ll what three words my demise.

there is actually a two stage poop system just to the left.

 

fun quiz fact… which film does that pipeline appear in?

There is a Korean film called Pipeline. Does your pipeline act in that movie too?

I can't think of many British films with a pipeline so I'll go for The World is not enough.

I think that’s in fort William. But there are a lot of hydro pipes in Scotland. But on the way to Skye … quad… 

I bet that pipeline has acted in other movies now. Once you've done a Bond movie, you can probably write your own cheque too.

Groans fully acceptable .

Makes you wonder if they have a stunt pipe? 

This all seems like a bit of a pipe dream...

 

I'll get me coat.

Looking down a river near Ravenglass. Can't remember the name of the river though

Had to zoom in a lot of the phone to capture this wee critter. It looked better on my phone than it does on my laptop.

Bloomin' phone.

When we were young, we used to call starlings, 'Stinkers'. No idea why, but wondered if the Scots had a similar name for them?
