Update: schoolboy error when unscrewing my tripod - the 635 opens by means of the knob on the base. Which the tripod head screws into. You do the math 🙄 #believeinfilm #piloterror

Great stuff. I really like the composition. And the fact that 99.99% of people don’t notice these things.

Oh no!! 😱

Your commission was a pint 😂

#camerasanddrinks shooting the breeze (among other things) with @olu-gh.bsky.social and @warboyssnapper.bsky.social

Very good offer from Analogue Wonderland at the moment. £500, but includes £100 film of your choice, plus loads of WonderPoints

Oops #believeinfilm

My resistance fell a couple of days ago. Been out with it for the first time today getting snap happy. No doubt there will be a fair percentage of duff shots on the first roll (XP2) as I get used to the camera.

Top effort 😂🤘

I just verified my age by ordering beer at home from Davenports

When is that Tom?

Interesting. Something to bear in mind when I get my new P17 out of its box

Where are the straps from @warboyssnapper.bsky.social ?

Using my iPhone as my light meter, these are a few shots that will hopefully come out when I get the film from the Isolette developed…

You definitely look grumpier without it. That effect is not mentioned in any of the literature 😂😂

Just wound on some Kodak Gold in the Isolette. First time I’ve used medium format Gold, and went past the first frame without realising. Most film stocks give you plenty of warning in the film window 🙄

Off into the smoke with these two babies today #believeinfilm

It was too good-an offer to pass up. Normal P-17 price, but includes £100 of film of your choice and 5000 Wonderpoints.

Yeah! Hopefully I’ll bring it along when we meet up 😎

@warboyssnapper.bsky.social something beginning with ‘P’…
@analoguewonderland.bsky.social made me do it 😂

Subtle 😎
I like it.

So *that’s* where all the 120 went 😂🙄

Oh yeah!! My daughter would love this!!!
So would I, TBH 😂

Ah, ok, pretty straightforward then! Nice work.

A gull caught in flight. Some sort of accident during development has rendered it on a dreamlike background.

Wandering aimlessly with a camera is pretty much my modus operandi 😎 It’s rare that I go out with something concrete in mind, and some of my fave shots happen like this.

This definitely floats my boat. Book or album cover for sure 😉

Fab stuff Andrew.
Would be good to meet up again sometime. Maybe even in the darkroom, or just mooching around with a camera or two 😎

I’d be interested to know how you post processed your images 😎
