Safe Doubles
I could not remember if I had advanced the film after the first shot I took of this safe which is sitting out in the rain.
So, I left it alone and took another shot, thinking if it was a double exposure, it would work well, and besides which, it was the safe thing to do!

Still Life with Shovel II
In a previous post I showed a different view of this shovel, taken with a medium format camera in portrait mode, shot in colour and converted to black and white.
But at the same time, I pulled this tiny camera from my pocket and took a shot on 35 mm black and white film as well.
As mentioned before, this is in the Mews, around back at Government House in Victoria.

Langley Street laundry line – I guess someone is living back here and needed to dry out their blanket.
Or maybe it was a gift, left out for the needy.
Captured on my first roll of JCH Street Pan 400.

Mamiya RB67
Test shots from my first roll through a Mamiya RB67. This camera is big, and heavy and makes large negatives, with loads of luscious detail.
