Piazza San Marco, Venice 2012

I recently got some overdue roll film processed in Malaysia. Some rolls were from 2008, the latest being 2012 or so. I recall getting a few rolls of Lomography’s Red Scale 120 films to test. The red scale film is simply exposing the film on the wrong side of the emulsion. The process goes through a standard development process, but depending on what ISO the film has been shot, there will always be a colour shift, from strong reds, orange to yellows. It is basically a trial and error approach for experimental effects.

These images are from a series taken at our Venice travel workshop in 2012.

Still, Life

The light was sublime. The time was around 4pm. The setting for tea was perfect. Petersham Nurseries in Richmond, South West London is essentially a nursery, selling mature and young plants, garden furniture and ornaments. It also has a lovely conservatory tea house and an award winning cafe restaurant, which advocates the SLOW FOOD movement. Rustic is the key word for this place.

InstantLondon. London welcomes refugees

2015_0912_14552500

At least 50,000 people marched to Downing Street today in London and as many in other European capitals to demand more be done for the refugee crisis facing Europe currently. The atmosphere was festive, with many families and small children taking part in the march from Marble Arch to Parliament Square.
