    New Gear & Film

    Recently I received a Miyama RB67. Someone gave it to me on the basis that it was moulding away in their house and they’d prefer someone to use it. So I spent a bit of time waiting out the remaining days of my job and attempting to clean it out. Most of that black light-sealing…

    More Film Shots

    These were taken through June to August, processed in September. They cover what I saw at Other Worlds Zine Fair, Paperbark Zine Fair and other shots around Canberra and other places.

    September Graffiti

    So when I left my job I got to be twice as busy. Years ago, I would spend my birthday going around taking photos of graffiti and street art around Canberra. And I hadn’t done it in a while. I also recently had a talk at the Dickson College about my graffiti/street art photography. Included…

    September

    A trip to Sydney, another to my hometown. I left my job of nearly nine years too. Also ran a zine fair, but I don’t have photos of that for this place. It’s been a busy month.

    August

    It’s the end of winter, but so far it’s been a false start to spring. This month saw a goth night in a waning video game bar, a Gauguin exhibit, and some photowalks.

    July

    It’s been a busy month, running up to Brisbane for a zine fair and catching up with some folks. I bought a load of film and I’ve got six reels ready to go to the lab and more in camera waiting to be flicked. It’ll start warming up soon. (click through for a larger pic)

    June

    It’s been a busy month of photoshoots and photowalks and the tenth Other World’s Zine Fair. I started getting up earlier to take photowalks around town before work. A photoshoot with Lydia and Coshlan. A photowalk with my buddy Scot, who you might have seen in my previous post about the Bessa R4M. Some night…

  • New Camera

    New Camera

    Recently I purchased a Voigtländer Bessa R4M, because I wanted to try a rangefinder camera and I didn’t want to wait around for the FujiFilm X100VI. Also, eBay was running a code on cameras from Japan and I missed an opportunity to pick up a seemingly good quality Leica M6 for under $3K. After a…

    Film shots

    I’ve been on-and-off shooting with film, namely because the last decent lab left town a while back, leaving it send rolls down to Melbourne or Sydney. These shots were processed by the Ikagi Film Lab and Film Never Die. For technical details, these were all shot on an Olympus OM10. Film Never Die Umi 800…
