Time...

Time is irrelevant...
I hope..
Welcome to the 2009 edition of my blog... 
This time I'm not going to say it will be updated regularly for I failed monumentally on that one last year.

Photography wise I have done very little... 
There have been one or two gigs, Up Helly aa, the Shetland Folk Festival and that's about it.
I got out this Sunday with SLR and fired off a few shots before I felt too ill and had to go home (currently suffering from a viral infection).


2009... A new year, a new start... it's been said before...
This time it is different though. .
In my hands *picks up camera* is a beautiful Olympus 35RC Rangefinder..
In the post are various items required for processing film.. And did I mention the ten rolls of Neopan!
Time to go old school, to real photography.


I'm excited.. Very excited. I haven't properly shot with film before. Even the whole fixed lens is a new thing for me. Manual? Full Manual.. Not even AV! I LOVE IT!
I shall be getting my first roll developed the morn (to check that my metering calculations are alright) then that's me!
Onwards into the big bad and rather beautiful world of film photography.
I may also have an eBay bargain in the form of an Oly trip 35 on the way...
O dear!!

So Hello

Happy New Year.

Cheers!
