“If your pictures aren’t good enough, you aren’t close enough.”
- Robert Capa

I try to always have this in mind.
After i took the first one, i thought, i should get closer, and i’m glad i did.

Kinda feeling like the one with the arrow through the head. Feel like i’m being pulled in all directions these days in everything… Need to try focus on one thing at a time, instead of a 1000 at once.

After i posted the first pidgeon photograph, i had developed a few more rolls and found a few more pidgeon photos which should go together. The last is taken with a rolleiflex TLR which i currently have in my posession (not mine but i wish i had one).

One afternoon, and one roll of portra the park.

I’ve done 3 rolls so far with the Naniwa kit. This one is from the 3rd roll - Centura 400. About the 3rd of the price of portra, and it doesnt have its tones, but nevertheless still nice. Pushed it one stop to 800.

Had the urge to shoot some colour recently, and I learned from a recent new friend that developing colour it wasn’t as hard as seemed. So i decided to try for myself with a naniwa color kit n. Whilst the process is a lot shorter than black and white film, it has to be at higher temperatures, which was proving a little more difficult for me to keep constant.
There are a few streaks on a few of them, not too sure why, maybe not enough agitation or fixing. These are few from one roll of Natura 1600.

After a couple of months in only black and white, shooting colour was such a joy. I didn’t have to think or imagine things only in only light and darks. I definately prefer night in colour. Looking forward to the weather getting warmer, so at night I can at least feel my fingers and the leica doesnt feel like an iceblock.
