recent additions.

recently i have picked up a few new cameras.
first was a Pentax 645 then came a Olympus XA2 ( and i think i have just bought a 6×17 MF camera… )
i have a few photos from both of those cameras, as well as some from my Hasselblad and Pentax LX.
i am very happy both!

abandoned school.

some friends and i went for a drive around Moe a few weeks ago, and came across this old school.
some parts have started to be demolished, and others are being rebuilt, not sure as what though…
this is my first roll of film souped in D-76. decent results, so im happy.

Frames from a roll of Rollei Retro

heres a bunch of random shots taken over a few months.
im generally way too selective with my photos, and a roll of 36 can take a while for me to finish!

its been a while…

…but here is a photo to keep you (and me) interested.

im slowly working through a backlog of film that needs to be scanned. just been really lazy lately.

Old Darnum Milk Factory

sometime ago while searching the internet for new places to check out, i came across someones Flickr page that showed a few local-ish old/abandoned buildings. so the other day i decided to go looking for the old Darnum Milk Factory. i had a vague idea where it was, and in the end wasn’t too hard to find.

Disposable Fun.

months and months ago i bought a disposable KODAK camera, i think it was $4..
thought it would be cool to keep it in the Rambler Studio and the studio days.
well after the studio finished up, the camera was left with a dozen or so shots left to go, it didnt get much use in its time, and it got chucked in my car, where it stayed for another month or 2.
yesterday was a nice sunny day and i though id go for a ride around town, and as i was looking for my ipod, i saw the camera, and decided that id take it with me to finish the film off, heres a few goodies.
