The first photos of 2012...
It seems only fair to follow the last of 2011's photos with the first of 2012's don't you think?
Last weekend we went for a wander around Leeds and I took some photos with my LC-A. I love the results with the Ilford XP2 film and I'm glad that I've started to use it more in different cameras - I think I will use it with my Superheadz next which is a very exciting thought!
I got so excited seeing this, amazingly on a road that I've walked down many times...
This camera is still a steep learning curve for me - at one point I had it on the wrong ISO setting, though that didn't ruin anything luckily. Also, I'm a bit worried I'm covering the light meter with some photos as a couple of them turned out like this on both this roll and my last one... Needless to say, my mental checklist of things to check when taking a photo is a little longer now, but I'm happy with that if the results are like this.
I love Leeds, sometimes I forget how amazing it can look.

Lovely photos, very inspiring! I'm starting a photography course today and hope it can motivate me to get out and use my camera more. Carla

i forget the iso all the time too, somehow it was at 1600 when i was shooting a 100iso film. i think the iso setting is the new B button.

ReplyDeleteI LOVE XP2, just trying to buy a bit more of it off ebay. Actually - I was wondering if you fancy doing some developing? Dave, Adam, Louise and me just bought some chemicals to do B&W and are hoping to meet at ours this weekend and have a go if you have some free time? X
