From last year's bridge building over our local river. A very welcome bit of new infrastructure for the town.
We went on a family holiday to the Costa Del Sol.
I took one lens (23mm), shot with JPEG and used the same film simulation for the whole holiday. (Something Kodachromy)
This, my friends, is the way to do travel photography.
I walk past this every day and I don't think I've ever taken a picture of it.
Yes, it's the second photo about Catholic mass in a week which is quite a lot for an atheist.
I'm going to try and do a picture a day. It does mean that there's going to be some v average photos and making solid use of SOOC. But you guys are lovely so I don't care.
Mass Rock
Oughaval Woods, Stradbally, Co Laois
Practicing Catholicism in 17thC Ireland was kind of lethal, so mass was conducted in secret at mass rocks in remote areas. This one was in use between c1691 and 1727 and the cross added in the 50s.
Some 13th Century Norman castles are just not that impressive.
Woodstock Castle, Athy, Co Kildare, Ireland.
Made a light box out of a fivers worth of foamboard and tracing paper. I’ve never done producty stuff before and I’m delighted!!
Picked up a 2nd hand film scanner today (Epson v600) and digging through some old negs. I have no idea when this was taken but it's the British Museum and I quite like it!

Accidentally pasted the B&W settings from another photo onto this one. Pleasant surprise. Not much in the way of subtlety though.

Nice and early on a Saturday morning. I used to work in these parts...way before this building was there.
David Wynne's Girl with a dolphin.
This view has been taken a million times, but the fog on the Thames that morning was something else.
London, December 2022
New day, new lens. I took delivery of a Viltrox 56mm f1.4 last night, and it came with me walking the dog this morning.
I don't do enough black and white photography so I took the camera out this grey and dreary morning before the sun came up with a mind to do just that.
With b&w it's all about the tone and thought this shot of our local factory on the canal, with all the autumn trees was a good subject to play with.
