Cool tanks

I used to shoot a lot of half-frame stuff but have got out of the habit. I found this, from 2019, this morning while looking for something else. It is of tanks of cool stuff like liquid nitrogen at a local hospital.

Expired Fuji 1600 film (shot in my Olympus Pen D3). The two left-most frames were badly over-exposed originally. Converting them to b&w was an attempt to get something from almost nothing.

I think I am going to dig out one of my half-frame cameras again.

This is where I used to work and I needed to look at some old files I'd
left behind. S was working when I came in but she kindly posed for me with
my 2007-expired film and my pre-1960 camera. She told me later it captured
her Monday-morning feeling.

Bell tower with light leaks

This is the bell tower of Santa Maria in Aracoeli Basilica, behind the
Vittorio Emanuele II memorial in Rome. I was in line to go up the
elevator you can barely see on the left. The bell was sounding out the
hour, noon.

I'm not sure what made the light leaks; I'm still of two minds
whether it was the camera or the process of spooling the film for
developing. Maybe both. But being the lemonade sort of guy that I
am, I kind of like the effect.

1990s-era Tri-X shot (at ca. 200) in the Olympus Pen D3 three months
ago. Developed this week (mid-July) and scanned using the Lomography
Digitaliza holder on the Epson V700.

Religion amazes me. That companies can thrive making and selling
statues of blessèd CEOs of another company is remarkable.

Three travelling buddies

I wish -- now that I see I have a good picture of them -- I had gotten
the names and addresses of these jovial young travellers. I struck up
a conversation with them at the Giardini Bardini in Florence on the
Liberation Day holiday in late April. One was from Brazil (right),
another from Germany (middle) and I think the third was from Holland
(left). They'd been sharing a house in (I think!) Berlin and decided
to strike south. When I first saw them, they were taking pictures of
a stuffed toy with Florence in the background. The toy had clearly
been the subject of pictures in several other places, too.

Tri-X film (nearly fifteen years out of date and never stored in the
fridge) shot at about 200 in the Olympus Pen D3 and finally developed
(in T-Max developer that -- according to its bottle -- expired in
2012) just two days ago, in mid-July. Scanned on the Epson V700 as a
strip (held in the wonderful Lomography Digitaliza holder).

Another picture on a roll of Kodak Gold 200 (probably about fifteen

years expired) in the Konica Eye2.

This morning I picked up my Konica Eye2 and decided to put a roll
through it. So I looked back at pictures from previous rolls with this
camera. There were quite a few pictures I'd done nothing with, like
this one from last summer.

Three businesses in a row -- a construction company, a metalwork
company, and the West End, a pub.

The film was Kodak ColorPlus 200 and I scanned it myself -- thus the
film border (not a digitally added border!) around it including the
little cut in the film plane edge on the left.
