Yellow Vespa

Vespa parked outside GAG on Victoria Street.

The owner who works at the shop was nice enough to let me take his pic as he was leaving work.

Reflections in a Puddle

My favourite spot at the moment for after a heavy rain.

I like how this guy looks a little like a wolfman to the extent that it looks like he has claws (sorry if you are that guy no offence intended)

Couple of Urban Landscapes

Another couple of images using a roll of expired Agfa Vista 200 ISO.

I’m really liking how old school the colours are coming out. I currently have another roll in the camera so will have to wait and see if it comes out with the same colour casts.

I am currently working up the courage to finally start my “Portraits of Strangers” project so all things going well they should start showing up here soon. (this is basically an attempt to psych myself up to just JFDI (Just F..Kn Do IT)

Vege Market in Colour

Back to the Vege Market again this week but shooting very expired Agfa film.


I liked the Pose in this one…

And I liked how it looks like the girl has 4 arms in this one…

Wild Pair

Another slightly blurry image from the Rollei.

What I really like about this image is the placement of the “Wild Pair” sign between the two (totally by accident)

Fatherhood Friday 22: Sandcastles

Yay it’s finally spring! (this side of the globe anyway)

When Amanda and Samantha went down south to see Amanda’s Nanna a couple of weeks ago Krispin came to visit so we decided to go to the beach for a treat for Emily.

Samantha is fully running around now and getting into everything she is not supposed to… So basically being a one year old.

A Couple of Street Shooters

Thought it was about time that I introduced you all to the two cameras responsible for most of the mess of images that I put up here. The one missing, because it was taking the images, is a Nikon D70s with a very trashed 18-70mm Lens.

The Rolleiflex is the latest addition to my camera collection and I have to say that at the moment its a bit of a favourite (Dont tell the F5). Although not in perfect condition, with some lens destruction caused by someone trying to dismantle the lens assembly, it still takes a very sharp image.

I’ve had the F5 for the last 8 or so years. I bought it second-hand in London just before the advent of well priced DSLRs and it has lived up to all that I have asked of it and some that no camera should go through. Its starting to look a little rough and I’m onto my second 50mm f1.8 but it is still an awesome piece of engineering as well as doubling as a weapon if required.

Random Street Shooting

Still coming to terms with the back-to-front composition 🙂 Upside down and back to front is fine but right side up and back to front is still kinda doing my head in.

Here goes some shots from wandering around Wellington

Motor Scooter Revisited

First roll of 35mm film I put through the Rollieflex and I saw this motor scooter that I took a photo of with the first ever film I put through it (Original Post Here)

Looks like its been fixed up a bit since I last saw it.
