Taken a few days ago (although it's snowing again now). Interesting opposing slopes and the way the early morning sun is catching the higher trees is fun - in reality there was more of a golden glow to them.  |

Last week had a lovely walk in Cheshire’s most excellent Lyme Park which I have enjoyed visiting since young. Here is the well known folly.  |

Took this photo on a mostly deserted 22km walk in the Chilterns yesterday. Managed to see three herds of wild deer en route which was fantastic. Note to self - do not take eyes off route when chatting; day was subsequently longer than expected!  |

Something I spotted back in 2013, but I have my doubts about the veracity of this one...  |

Have you got it set to silent or 'croak'?  |

 Out in the pouring rain yesterday with a 35mm camera and a couple of rolls of ancient HP5, pushed to ISO 1600 |

Not bad grain for 1600.

I'd agree with that, Martin. If I had followed the advice of many, and adjusted exposure by lowering ISO one stop per decade of film age, I should probably have set my ISO to 50 or 100. Because I adjusted the ISO upwards, instead of down, that would mean I was 4 or 5 stops out of whack. It was shot on a completely manual camera, with no exposure compensation applied. Now, to my eye, there's nothing wrong with the exposure here, and that level of grain is something I can live with for street photography. A bit of grittiness suits the subject matter, I think. My choice of pushing it to 1600 allowed me to shoot this at arm's length right under the guy's nose at a narrow aperture, and so knowing that the shot would be in focus, due to the available depth of field (no auto focus here!) |

I remember using some Agfa Pro 800 decades ago and it was fabulous for night-time shots. Daylight use was a disaster, though.

I used to love shooting 16mm on fast stock - with a good telecine you can get a look like no other and make a virtue of the grain structure.
