Popular – but why?

Iwade Panoramic img890So, I uploaded this picture on Flickr a few days ago. It is BY FAR my most viewed image already with over 1200 views! I am of course extremely pleased, but also very confused! I have added it to only a few groups and although i do like it, it certainly is not one of my favourites. However, here it is for you to enjoy. If you like it – let me know why!

 

The First Hasselblad Xpan Shots

Well, I took my Xpan skiing to Kaprun, Austria. Not knowing what to expect and with some very expired (like at least a decade) Velvia i shot a few rolls. One roll was totally magenta so i was pretty disappointed, however the other roll was ok. I have only scanned in a few, its been a very busy month, but i hope you like. My favourite is the skis against the logs.

A sad day for film.

I was disappointed to hear that Three years after Fujifilm announced the discontinuation of its Sensia film, the firm’s UK arm has announced that it will close its E6 processing lab facility on 01 November 2014. Whilst it is understandable, it is yet another nail in the coffin for those who shoot film. I have a fair few rolls of process paid like many i am sure. Whilst i don’s want to waste it i may have to sell some / shoot much more to work through my stock. At least they have given a years notice. I suppose! Any ideas for my last rolls gratefully received!
