Some more shots around Sheffield

Devonshire Green

A few more shots from around town, really just using up the end of the roll. Some regrets pushing the film to 800, some successes with it.

This one suffered from the same light leaks as before because it’s the same roll1 - but I ditched most of the failures.

A street at night
Leaned on a lamp post for this one. You can just about wring something out of the Pentax 17 at night.
A slide inside a building
They put a slide in a building ffs.
Bike hub
More framing woes.
A cyclist in a wood.
An old brewery
Will he ever hold the camera straight? Find out next week.
An old Volkswagen Beetle
Trees in the fog.
A happy light leak accident.

We'll see a lot of this because it's my house and I am lazy.

Oh yeah we got to test drive a new hotel before it opened. So here we are, in a hotel room.
A selfie
I am artiste.
A red bull car
I see this thing all the time. I think it might be privately owned now, but I'm not sure.
A neon sign

Again, some I liked, some I didn’t. All part of the fun.

I just found a Kodak Retina iia (Type 150) so perhaps next time we’ll be seeing how badly I can stuff up photos on a very old camera.

  • Camera: Pentax 17
  • Film stock: Ilford HP5 Plus

  • Developed and scanned at J&A Studio2 in Sheffield. Shot at ISO 800 and pushed 1 stop at the lab.
