Pittenweem (Part 1)

In February my Mum, Dad and I went through to Pittenweem in Fife for a day out. The weather was perfect to showcase the beautiful and colourful homes of the village, so I hope you like pictures of houses, as you'll be seeing a lot of them in this post! If you ever get the chance, I highly recommend a visit as it's easily one of the nicest wee towns I've been to.

Part 1 contains my medium format shots from the day and were taken with my Mamiya 7ii and 65mm f/4 lens. Film used was a mix of Kodak Ektar 100 and Fuji 400H, but mostly Ektar. Thanks as always to Canadian Film Lab for the amazing job they do with my film.

This is Jill. I got talking to her when she was taking a break from walking her dog. She instantly recognised my cameras as being film cameras and told me that her husband was a photographer in the Royal Air Force. She also said that he switched to digital when it came around but continued to shoot film for his personal work, which is something quite a few people still do today. I'm glad I asked to take her picture as it's nice to be able to remember such a pleasant stranger.

Whiteadder Reservoir

Early one morning back in June of last year I took a drive up to Whiteadder Reservoir. It's a lovely piece of land situated in the Lammermuir Hills. I remember going there with my Mum, Dad and sister when I was young and back then the drive seemed to take hours. In reality it's only about half an hour away and the drive itself is a nice one. On this particular day there was no one there except for a couple of fisherman, and when it's this quiet it really is quite idyllic.

All colour shots taken with my Mamiya 7ii and Kodak Ektar. All black and white with my Mamiya 645 Pro and Ilford HP5+. Development and scanning by Canadian Film Lab.
