35mm half-frame photos

the beginnings of a new adventure

I recently got hold of a Lomography Lomourette in the Picnic Edition colourway. It’s a twist on their existing Diana Mini camera. It’s my first 35mm film camera, and it suits me just fine as a beginner! It has a fixed aperture size (f/8), fixed automatic shutter speed (1/60), a manual shutter speed mode, and four focus zones ranging from 0.6m to 4-∞. It shoots half-frames, so in sacrificing a bit of image-to-grain ratio I get double the amount of photos per roll. And talking of which, my first roll came back from the Gulabi photo lab in Glasgow recently. Here’s a few of my favourites!

black and white makes everything moody

A couple of quick shots today, looking at these old lampposts I found. Shooting on black and white SX-70 makes these look real ghostly and spooky - even though it was a lovely day outside!

springtime snaps and a life update

Spring has sprung again..! Or rather, is currently springing. As it was a sunny day today, I went up Dundee Law and took some Polaroid photos! These didn’t come out great, but I still had a lot of fun taking them. I’m still shooting SX-70 on the 1000, but I might modify it to shoot 600 when I’m all out of SX-70.

pinball brain

another year, another loop around the table!

It’s the 4th of November, again - which means, it’s my birthday! I’m 31 this year. You can read what I thought of entering my thirties from last year’s entry - this post isn’t about that. It’s about what’s been goin’ on, what’s next for me, and how I’ve come to love the fact that my brain is basically a pinball machine. More on that later!
