Christchurch Cathedral

Some shots of the earthquake affected Christchurch Cathedral. This is almost 5 years since the quake hit and it is still considered too dangerous to go in…

A Bit Of Camera Repair
I finally got around to pulling apart my broken Canon Demi S half frame camera to see if I could get it back up and running. I found a repair manual online for a slightly different model of camera and started dismantling. There was a major difference unfortunatley in how the front cover came off which would have saved a lot of time and trouble but you live and learn.
I got it all back together (with no extra bits left out) with the initial problem fixed but another problem arose which meant I needed to pull it al apart again… Lets just say its a work in progress 🙂
Luckily while I was doing this I was also bidding on another one online 🙂

Piano Number Two
Another piano at the same abandoned school… I guess this was maybe the backup piano.

Back To School

With the end being neigh for the old school it was time to go back before it was knocked down to make way for a retirement village.

Computer Issues: Part 2
Its been a strange week not having a working computer but hopefully I have sorted it out… I now have two working computers so are backing up everything onto removable hard drive and then see which one gives the best performance 🙂
This was what my desk looked like 30 minutes ago… Let the blogging resume!
Computer Issues
I have been having some problems with my computer lately and yesterday it finally gave up and died on me 😦
Most of my stuff was backed up but I still need to rescan about 20 rolls of film before I can get back to putting stuff back up… Sorry
Hopefully it wont take too long…
The Day Rollei Died
Sorry to say I have been a bit quiet of late but unfortunately my Rolleiflex decided to up and die on me. Its currently away hopefully being repaired (fingers crossed).
This is probably the shot where it happened.
I will keep you informed on how it is going… Time to do some more experimentation with digital while its away 🙂
