Great stuff but those Portra shots are stunners! One from a rainy morning at Tynemouth

Last few from this, my first roll of colour film.
These were a bit rushed 'cause it was flippin' freezing.

After what I thought would be the death of my camera, I ran a quick roll of Porta400 through on my lunch break today and had it developed.
So I took some shots of glorious Croydon...

Kenilworth Castle, no less! Most romantic ruined castle in England, IMHO... Nice shots too, Simon . The little Agfa has done well for you.
...but surely Kenilworth castle would be better in colour for it's lovely coloured stone. Anyway that's what struck me when I first saw it.
Thanks Chris. Yes, Kenilworth Castle. The Agfa performed better than I expected TBH.
You might be right Brian. If I happen to have colour film loaded next time I'm there I'll take a few.
Chances are slim though. Although I'm having a play with colour film at the moment I have to say I much prefer mono.
Still getting to grips with developing my own film.....
And a bit of a rarity to get a photo of my youngest son...
Taken with the Nikon F4 and 50mm F1.8 lens, using TMax 100
Developed in Rodinal at 1:50 for 12 min
Cracking shot.Still getting to grips with developing my own film.....

Mesmerising stare here; the eyes really draw you into the photo. Nice shot.
Lee, that's a corker of a portrait.
Cracking shot..

Ha lol!!.... sorry....it's still a great shot RogerThanks Lee. It was taken in Barry (as in Gavin and Stacey land) though, not by Barry. I'm Roger.
And I do love that portrait.

Eek Roger, that's a cracker! I just love the combination of inky darkness and the sky drama. And for extra bonus points, processing Velvia 50 yourself!!!!
Thanks Chris. I haven't been processing Velvia for very long, I've done about 6 or 7 rolls now, but using the Tetenal 3 bath kit is really very easy. You just have to make sure that you have the temperature spot on for the first two baths, after that it's a bit more relaxed. I was prepared for the worst with my first roll, and I was amazed when it came out perfectly. This is the first shot from the very first roll of Velvia that I did at home in November:
