I remember Velvia being marketed as professional, but not anything else. Was a long time ago - but I've looked but through some scans and the do look pretty good. Enjoy shooting it!

I used to use it way back before it was professional. If I remember correctly it doesn't suffer so much from reciprocity failure. I loved it and can't remember why I stopped using it - maybe the price of it?

A cyanotype print of a jackdaw on a hawthorn tree. The image is blue but the branches are black as is the jackdaw in the centre of the image. The tree has white blossom on it.

Great shots. Love the lighting - moody but not sinister. Also agree with Priscilla.

Thanks Ade. I'm working on it. I wished I had my Blad with me in Tenerife - will definitely get out and about with it soon.

Thank you. I’m thinking about doing more colour work as I’ve been almost exclusively b&w for years.

Set myself a target of 15 shots per day to shoot all my film on this trip. Trying to get my photo mojo back. 5 down, but it’s only lunchtime. #CamerasAndDrinks #BelieveInFilm

Beautiful. The shape of the tree in the foreground is a worthy star of the shot.

Haven’t been out with my camera for quite a while. This was taken earlier in the year in Cornwall.

I didn’t risk 120 as maybe erroneously I figured the 35 mm canisters might protect the film a bit if I couldn’t get a hand check. Next time I’ll be bolder.

Thank you. I’ve set myself a target of using all three films to try to get my photo mojo back. 🀞

Just went through security at Manchester airport. Relieved to report my film was hand checked by the nice staff. Photo fun in Tenerife is go!

Telling comments from Meta, basically - it’s ok to use photos of teenage girls as long as they didn’t post them themselves. 🀬
