These images are from another trip along to Aberlady, but this time we walked in the town itself. It really is a lovely little place with such beautiful homes.
Contax T2
3 Pals, 2 Rolls of Film and 1 Cat
Back in March I went to visit Adam and Emily to see their new cat Peco. I thought it would be a good idea to test some faster speed films handheld in dim light so I brought along my Contax T2 loaded with Delta 3200 and my Contax G2 with Cinestill 800T (pushed to 1600). At the time I didn't realise Delta 3200's true speed was 1000 so I shot it at box speed but despite that fact, I think they turned out really well. Sure, they are grainy but I think it's a pleasant grain. The pictures are mostly snapshots so don't expect my best work, but with that being said, I think I managed to get some really nice ones of Peco and his humans.
As you may have noticed the Cinestill shots have some purple spots/blotches in them which is something that can happen, apparently. Despite that though, I thought it did a lovely job and produced a unique look, especially with the shots of Adam and Emily in the bathroom.
The Town On T-Max
Following our little jaunt up Calton Hill, my Mum, Dad, Auntie and I went a walk around the outskirts of the city centre. I felt this was a good opportunity to load my Contax T2 with Kodak's T-Max 100 and try to shoot some street photography/architectural stuff. T-Max is a black and white film that I was really looking forward to trying and I'm glad to say it delivered. Possibly my favourite black and white film I've used thus far.
