Rainy days never looked so good

My husband whisked me and our hound dog aka Spot in Jozi away last weekend for an outing to a pretty farm on the outskirts of Johannesburg, called The Ground. We love hiking and the outdoors, but since dog-friendly establishments…

Inspired by my prep for tonight’s show I though I’ll share a few Street Photography images and see if you are as excited as I am about our first ever “Theme Show” over on #SOOC

I hope you will be able to join us tonight (link in today’s story and in bio)

These are some shots from last weekend in #Fujico

These are some shots from last weekend in
#FujicolorReala100 #SOOC out of my #XT5 + #XF30mm (except for photo 7)

I was actually prepared for an overcast day with intermittent showers which is why I chose Fujicolor Reala 100 but the clouds opened up and made way for blue skies. Great to experiment with this recipe in various conditions.

👉 the rondavel in photo 1 reminded me of my first visits to South Africa and first stay “in the bush” many, many moons ago when I stayed at @thornybush.safari and accommodation was the rondavel in photo 7 (which is a scan of the original photo taken on film way back when). The looks in these two photos are very different when compared side by side but the photo from last weekend still triggered that memory and made me go look for the “original”. It was a much better image in my head then in real life 🤣 but I still appreciate the exercise and the trip down memory lane 😎

I’ve had a lucky accident on the weekend. Afte

I’ve had a lucky accident on the weekend.

After I got back from Sunday’s outing with good friends I printed some of my photos on the #instax #LinkWIDE - in the name of “Photos Deserve To Be Printed” and realised that the film cartridge I was printing from had been exposed to light after it had been opened accidentally. I knew this meant that the top most sheets of film were not going to develop the way that I had intended them to look.

What I didn’t anticipate was that the light leaks that became visible in the photo would actually enhance the images and created prints that I enjoy even more than the original images.

If it ever happens to you that you accidentally expose your instax film to light - don’t worry too much and definitely DON’T throw it away. Just use it and look forward to the creative look your prints will get. It’s actually a lot of fun!

I shot a couple of frames in #MysteryChrome again

I shot a couple of frames in #MysteryChrome again today and I really like these results. It’s a pretty contrasty recipe but in these images I think it works.

Have you shot with this or any other recipe that was recommended in the final episode of SOOC last year? Then what are you waiting for? Upload it so we can share it in next week’s season opener! You’ll find the upload link in my bio! We’d love to see what you’ve been up to 🤗

We’re super excited to reconnect with you!

These images are jpegs #SOOC from my #XT5 + #XF30mm

As different as all these images are from one anot

As different as all these images are from one another - they have one thing in common: They were all shot with the #XF23mmF2

It so happens that I shoot a heck of a lot with this lens which is the starting point for my episode of Photo Chats with Nats tomorrow.

Join me live at 9am GMT+2 (Friday, 3 Feb) and find out why I decided to chat about “If I only had one lens”. You can find the link in my bio. If you missed the live broadcast, don’t stress, you can still watch it later.
