My first black and white film!

I actually can't believe it's taken me this long to share these photos but I do tend to get over excited about new camera's and film so I guess its ok...

Whilst we did spend most of our week off at home, we spent the Monday and Tuesday in Liverpool. It was so great to spend a couple of days together without worrying about anything other than where we were going to eat (which we like to talk about anyway...) and enjoying a new city.

These photos were taken around Albert Dock.

I'm completely smitten with black and white film!

Location: Albert Dock, Liverpool
Camera: Diana Mini
Film: Ilford XP2 400

Labels: diana mini, ilford xp2, liverpool

I think B&W photos somehow has much more depth in them than colour.; 22 March 2011 at 09:56

Black and white always seems to tell a different story to colour.; 22 March 2011 at 12:30

Nikolett said...: These are GORGEOUS shots. I love black and white but sadly have to resort to Photoshop most of the time, so they aren't authentic. My mom says it's always a shame they don't make black and white movies as much anymore!; 22 March 2011 at 19:20
Helen said...: I love seeing your Liverpool photos! The albert dock is lovely - my grandad would always take us on little trips there to the maritime museum and I'd climb all over the huge anchor. The only bad thing about the albert dock is how cold and windy it gets by the river!; 23 March 2011 at 10:22
