On one of the hottest days of the year i thought I'd post a picture of when it was bloody freezing! Taken of course on a Shitty Camera. #ShittyCameraChallenge #NoSwimming 📷 Sony Mavica FD200 🎞️ 128MB Sony Memory Stick

Managed to get out and about this afternoon with one of my old Pentax cameras, a lens which weighs about the same as a small car, to finish a roll of 20 year expired slide film. 📷 Pentax P30n | Pentax 70-210mm f4 🎞️ Kodak E100VS #chancingit #expiredfilm #35mmfilm #filmphotography

Many moons ago my father did a lot of promotional photography for local musicians and bands. This shot was taken in a cemetery using my mum and her friend as models. The band was called Cheswardines Kings. 50 years later I found the same spot with my sons. #vintage #photography #localhistory

My very first 35mm film camera was an Ilford Sportsman given to me when I was about 9 years old. I still have that camera, several decades later. Me holding the Sportsman , taken by my dad and this is also me taken with the same Sportsman, with my Cat. #ilford #photography #35mm #myfirstcamera

Many many moons ago when I was still a pup I had bought for me 'The Hamlyn Basic Guide to Photography'. A book I poured over while learning how to use my dad's Fujica 35mm. I fell in love with a picture of a Minolta XG-M. Fast forward 40-odd years and I finally snagged one! #Minolta #35mm #film

That time I used a 1980's Sony colour video camera hooked up to a BBC Microcomputer to take a selfie....

Thinking about what to use for the #ShittyCameraChallenge I have a shortlist of three cameras, two digital and one 35mm film. I can't decide! Canon PowerShot G2 - 8MP Sony FD200 - 2MP Vivitar 'Amphibia' - 35mm film Thoughts please!

IN ABOUT A MONTH! #SHITTYcameraChaLLeNG RETURNS.

I often use vintage camera gear even when I shoot digital. This shoot was one of those times. Although the camera is a Nikon digital SLR, the single flash gun I used for lighting was a Metz Mecablitz 402 from the 1970's. Still packs a punch! #Metz #studio #shoot #models #mecablitz

It's been a unique experience in my home town this weekend. A huge landmark mill building called, 'Big Mill' was set alight and burned out so badly it's been demolished already. Hundreds of people were evacuated from their homes, fortunately no one was hurt or killed. #bigmill

A twenty year out of date Kodak slide film in a totally untested Pentax camera. What could possibly go wrong 🤣

A bit of a proud dad moment this weekend. My youngest competing in the Southport 12 hour sailing race. #southport2025 #racing #sailing

Well, the post has arrived :-D

Snapped a few boats with an ages old Panasonic Lumix camera. The answer to "What's the best camera?" is always, "the one you have with you!" #boats #sailing

Shooting on one of my favourite film cameras. 📷 Mamiya C33 | 105mm lens 🎞️ Rollei 400 with IR filter 📍 The Roaches - Peak District My first time shooting this film in medium format. I was super pleased with the results! #mediumformat #filmphotography #mamiya #believeinfilm #roaches #ruins #sheep
