Couple of randoms...

Just to throw them in... because I can...




Diana Mini


I bought a new toy, I couldn't REALLY afford it but it was just too good to resist. A Diani Mini, it's obviously a tiny version of the original Diana, meaning it can be used with 35mm film rather than 120. I bought it with a flash, colour gels and 5 free colour films. It's capable of taking a maximum of 72 shots on one roll of film with it's awesome half frame function, it also can be changed to a square format, i guess to give the feeling of the original Diana. So this blog contains shots from my first roll of film. It involves many many many multiple exposures, and I wasn't used to it but now I think I've figured it out so my next films should be much better! Shot on Kodak colour plus 200iso. Taken in Wollaton Park...




And London...








Return to Barcelona



Nah, I haven't been back but I am going to upload some not so good monochrome photos from the same holiday as before, with the lovely polaroid snaps...




There were loads more that I really liked but couldn't scan as they're really over exposed, I think I may have finally learnt the lesson about using high speed film in bright sunlight... It's not a great idea!!








More friends...




Where else but at the pub?! I apologise for the dust and watermarks again, I am lazy but some of them look good with it... maybe I'm kidding myself.





Friends




Shot on Fuji Neopan 1600iso, sorry about the dust and watermarks, partly my fellas' impatience and my laziness...







Narrative


A bit random but I just realised that I never produced a blog about my last brief at uni which was Narrative. I got an A for it which I thought was strange as I'd had B's up unitl then and thought that this was my worst project but see what you think... It's based upon the children's book Peace at Last and is shot on digital 1600iso and was shot at night with only ambient light (lamps, lights, outside lamps etc), bascially no flash involved. (Unless I'm in a studio, I'm useless with it).
