If you happen to be in Edinburgh this weekend or early next week, please consider popping into my street photography exhibition. 33 prints from 27 Edinburgh-based street photographers. Some excellent pics and, best of all, it's free! #edinburgh #streetphotography #photography #exhibition

Too much stuff, not enough space, so I'm selling off unneeded things bit by bit. Mostly camera stuff right now, but also fountain pens, and other things. Put together a page for it, take a look. Mostly Hasselblad stuff right now. The page is at aleatorist.com/forsale Shares appreciated!

This phone snap just about sums up recent days. #sharemondays2026

ILFORD PANF+ is the slowest film in our collection, with beautiful high contrast and smooth grain. The images shared for this historical #fridayfavourites show off these characteristics perfectly. https://www.ilfordphoto.com/friday-favourites-shotwithpanf/#fridayfavourites Image @peter_durst

Got hit hard this month, so I’m selling off a bunch of camera gear. Bluesky followers get first dibs before eBay, please DM me if you’re interested in anything listed, prices can be negotiated. USA buyers only, first come, first served. I’ll be responding to DMs as soon as I can. (1/6)

It was a lean week photographically, but yesterday morning I found an otter whilst walking to work along the Water of Leith in Edinburgh. 😀 For #sharemondays2026 here's a photo of its reaction to a dog on the footpath.

Breaking: on two counts, the High Court has ruled that the Labour government's proscription of the campaign group Palestine Action was unlawful – a win for its co-founder Huda Ammori, who sought a judicial review of the ban

Summer snaps for half frame Friday. Kodak Gold in the beta Chroma Click, shot in Edinburgh's New Town. 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Seeing as it's Japan's national foundation day here are a couple of photos from Japan. Futaarayama shrine in Utsunomiya, to be precise.

The past week has been pretty grey in Edinburgh, so I tried to make grey pretty by shooting with my funky Fujian CCTV lens which has a frankly silly plane of focus. Here's one of my favourite examples for #sharemondays2026.

Paolo doing his best to keep up with things this #caturday 😸

This week for half frame Friday a reminder that as well as @halfframephotoday.bsky.social we're also on Instagram and we'd love to see the best of the half frame photos you've posted there. We want to make #hff as much of a thing there as it is here.

Captured from the same spot with a Zero Image 4x5 pinhole camera these images show how changing the focal length, from 25mm to 75mm — completely reshapes the way the scene feels. #pinhole #filmphotography #photography #tree #southdowns #blackandwhite

🇪🇦 Can anyone suggest a good android app for learning tourist Spanish? I have no desire to: 🔴 Talk about hobbies 🟡 Describe my family 🔴 Tell people my dog sells hats Just good old 🔴 Ordering food and reading menus 🟡 Basic pleasantries, greetings 🔴 Tickets and admissions Any ideas?

Monday morning in Edinburgh.

My submission for #sharemondays2026 this week comes from the Portrait gallery in Edinburgh.

Had a productive afternoon replenishing my Tumblr post queue. Will be good for a couple of months but need to keep shooting regardless. I've been shooting maybe 95% black and white (and loving it) since returning from Japan in early December but now craving some colour.

Happy #caturday folks.

2 "fun" "facts" for you: 1. There are only 30 weeks to go until worldwide half-frame photography day '26 #wwhfpd26!! 2. Today is half frame Friday #hff!! To celebrate these nuggets have some half frame photos. 😎

Time to clear the film developing backlog, they're all going to the lab. Still got a few sheets of 5x4 to develop but that's for another day.

I'm putting on a street photography exhibition in a few weeks time in Edinburgh. If you're in town, please come along! 33 excellent photos from 27 local photographers. More details via @streetphoto.social below.... #edinburgh #photography #streetphotography #exhibition

A few moments from Scotland where autumn leaves and water kept crossing paths. Leaves floating, collecting, reflecting. Water slowing the season down just enough to make the color feel intentional. Quiet scenes that were easy to linger with.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

It's been a dreich and dark week with limited photo opportunities, but I at least managed to get a handful of shots in the garden at the weekend. I've picked this one for #sharemondays2026 as I like the almost shattered glass effect.

Seeing as it's Burns' night, here's a picture of a portrait of a portrait of Burns. Raeburn's copy of Nasmyth's much earlier portrait, now on display alongside the Nasmyth at the National Gallery in Edinburgh. #shittycamerachallenge

This morning in the garden.

As promised, actual photos for #hff half frame Friday.

Quote post a gif with a clue of where you're from...

Only 225 days to go! #wwhfpd26 #hff

All hail the crazy genius for making these truly fantastic trichromes. 👏👏👏 🔥🔥🔥

Finally found out how to separate the stills and video picture styles on my Lumix. Melodramatic to say this is life-changing but yeah, actually it is. 😎☺️

Prices. The 32 mm is cheap as it gets err messages

I'm going to sell all my Nikon 1 gear, so any UK people interested, I'll share it this week as I dig it out

Was casually watching the aurora from my bedroom window and wondering what penalty to impose on people who fail to control their garden security lights. 🤔

Ducking to not get in the photographer's shot.

Made a lot of photographs this week, but most aren't really what I would consider #sharemondays2026 material. Nevertheless, here's a simple, quiet, black and white photo from North Berwick on Saturday.

Had an interesting day out in North Berwick with the @streetphoto.social crew. Started early to shoot a roll and a bit of 6x6 pinholes, then met up for the photowalk.

We've been looking forward to seeing your images for this week's #2025fave #fridayfavourites There was a great selection of different styles & subjects shared. These are our favourites this week. https://www.ilfordphoto.com/friday-favourites-2025fave/#2025fave#fridayfavouritesImage @doc_voronov

My bank manager's reaction to the launch of the Ricoh GRiv Monochrome. 😢

A rather messy pinhole photo from atop the Operahuset Oslo. Zero 45 with HP5+ I think. Hoping to get out with my Ranica Mir 6F this weekend, it's been too long since my last pinhole shoot.

Leaves and reflections in the Water of Leith, June last year.

Think I only made 2 photos this past week, and the one of the cat had motion blur... So for #sharemondays2026 here's a scene from a sunny morning in Edinburgh last week.

One of the few positives about the last decade or so is people are starting to get hip to the fact that the Luddites were right all along.

I don't think I've actually shown you guys the Pen-EE I bought in Japan. At the time I believed it to be in need of some TLC, as there was no red flag in the viewfinder and it's generally looking well worn. Today I've taken it out of the bubble wrap for the first time and the red flag works! Whoop!
