35mm

Dunbar Harbour

A dreich day down at Dunbar Harbour with Craig sometime last year. The first image is my favourite from this day. I think this was either a father/daughter or a grandfather/granddaughter and he was pointing out the different sights to her. I have a print of this on Kodak Metallic paper and it looks really nice. The camera used was my Olympus Mju II and the film was Kodak Portra 400.

Oh, and here's some bonus panoramic shots from my Hasselblad Xpan also on Kodak Portra 400.

Two seals swam into the harbour and I managed to get a photo of one of them, not the greatest picture ever but I had to take one!

Musselburgh Lagoons

The Hasselblad Xpan is a tremendous camera and one that I had wanted for a long time, so when one came up for a ridiculously low price I jumped on it immediately. For those who don't know the Xpan shoots in a panoramic aspect ratio using two frames of 35mm film together. Sure, most phones can do panoramas these days but that involves the stitching together of multiple images which brings with it problems such as warping and distortion, not to mention it makes capturing a scene with movement impossible since each picture is being taken at a different time. That's the beauty of the Xpan, it shoots true panoramas all with the ease of use of a rangefinder camera so you can capture a panoramic scene exactly as it looked. Anyway, enough technical talk, here's some pictures I took on my first trip out with the Xpan when my friend Kelly and I went for a walk along the Musselburgh Lagoons.
