Day 5, Shot 2

Aaaargh. Damn kids (sometimes). I thought I'd chance a sunset shot, but it clashed horribly with bedtimes. Pegged it out of the house to try and catch it, but in my rush to get setup I forgot to focus! I shot this on the 3000 iso speed setting, so f/58, so I had to cover the electronic eye and time the exposure manually. I'd metered on my 35mm camera so I needed about a second. I tried to time it as best as I could. Have to admit I have tried to recovered a little bit from the shadows after scanning.

Oh well. Out with a whimper rather than a bang. What's more is that this it it now for a couple of months. Holiday saving has meant not sending any film off since the start of the year. I've got loads of it!

So I'm glad I managed to splash out a whole £7.75 on Roidweek. It was definitely worth it.

Dedication to Roidweek:

Had overtaken cyclist on the way home, but then noticed the cows were prime for a photo. So stopped off and let him overtake me (pretty sure he already thinks I'm weird for always trying to race him). And then stopped on the verge waiting a couple of minutes for the film to develop so I could be sure I'd got it; looking even more of a weirdo to the cows and car drivers.

1 shot to go!

Day 4, Shot 1

Only one shot today as I used one up yesterday. And there was only one shot I had in mind all day. Well, a chance to shoot film and be topical!

Day 3, Shot 2

Another photo opportunity on the way home! It meant using up one of tomorrow's shots, but you can't pass up these chances.

The fog/mist/haar was rolling in.

I like this one.

Day 3, Shot 1b

This one is not making the cut. It didn't come out quite as well as I thought it would - I think I'll leave the double exposures for now.
