Scrap Yard Cars
These were all shot on Ilford Pan F+ 50 ISO Film, I really love the tonal range of this film… unfortunately after I had developed these and seen how good they were I went to work to stock up only to find that someone had bought all that was left in the fridge… How Rude! I have ordered more but unfortunately it comes from Australia and wont be here before the new year 😦 . I’m going to try pulling Ilford FP4 125 ISO film to 50 ISO and see what results that will give.

Traffic Photographer on Manners Street
Just after Manners Mall became a bus road this guy turned up for about a week… We initially thought he was there to catch buses that were running red lights but it turns out he was there to take images of cars going through the “Bus Only” section of the road, possibly to give them tickets.

Rainy Night at The Bus Station
While waiting for a friend at the bus station I shot a couple of images… This was by far the best one.
Great eye contact with the camera… I didn’t notice when I took it… I love how film still surprises me from time to time 🙂

Window Dresser Through Window
I seem to be taking lots of images through windows at the moment…

Negative Space Portrait
This is definitely one of my favourite shots that I have taken recently.
A portrait within a portrait…

Bus Casuality on Manners Street
As I was coming back from getting lunch I noticed a group of people clustered around someone on the footpath. As I got closer it turned out to be someone who had just stepped out onto the street without looking both ways (day 3 of the new road layout where buses go both ways on a previously one way street) and was hit by a bus.
Lets just say that this was a really hard image to take and I think this comes across in the image itself… it probably didn’t help that I was shooting 50 ISO film… but I think the camera shake adds some anonymity to the image.

Fatherhood Friday 29: 8 Sleeps til Christmas
Wow! Where did the year go?
Emily is getting very excited and pretty much every night before bed saying “I hope Santa comes tonight”.
The christmas tree has been up for a number of weeks and Samantha has only nearly pulled it over once so far and has been remarkably good about not opening the presents that have started to appear under it from various well organised relatives 🙂
The bike track is still under construction but they have the small people track finished, Emily is getting super fast going around a I can hardly keep up with her on my bike… Looks like there is going to be another daredevil in the family….
