Oh look, that's me waffling on about photography on @ILFORDPhoto website. I chat about some images and thoughts that have been taking roots in my head about (my) photography. Head over to the link below to read all about it #BelieveInFilm

'The willow tree has not enjoyed the past winter, their frame growing brittle and dry at the edges. I know I could turn to books to learn how best to take care of them, but the garden is not the domain of brain knowledge. I learn differently here.' dotart.blog/allysseriordan/y…

Such a fantastic day it was. And such a fantastic portrait created by @paulasmithphoto
From Saturday's photo meet up. Amazing meeting twitter photo pals @allysseriordan in the flesh. For all the bad press twitter gets I feel all the richer making some genuine friendships. (Shot taken with the new to me Yashica Mat 124g & Kentmere 100.)

Hi #BelieveInFilm friends :) I'm still questing for how I best use social media in my life. One thing that has become obvious is that I am enjoying reading blogs again. Any of you maintain (regular or widely irregular) blogs I can subscribe to?

I was thinking South Bank as my main station with be Waterloo (staying around Twickenham), but I'm happy for other suggestions. No worries if you are no longer free :) I just thought I'd update you all.

@sisboombah I forgot to tag you in! I've not quite recovered my social media brain -_- You can see more photos from the NHS portraits sessions in the link in the original tweet.

Hi :) I haven't been around much. I still miss you. I still don't know much of where I live online these days, but I have made progress in figuring it out. If you are interested, you can read me ramble on about it here dispatchestofriends.mataroa.…
Reflections on my social media use of late: a rambly thread. The Twitter mass exodus at the end of last year had me reconsider my use of social media. I stayed on Twitter and trialled Mastodon. As with new things, I was grumpy about it, but ended up liking the slower pace of it.

This morning is all about developing. A few rounds and my 35mm backlog should be drastically reduced. I can't wait to rediscover my images - especially the ones from the Lake District and the my cycle across Wales. #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice

And done. I had an emergency cycle to the shop as I unexpectedly ran out of soda crystals. But all is well and I have more images from France and one roll from Wales with loads of images on. The rest will have to wait until tomorrow (or later...). #BelieveInFilm #ShootFilmBeNice
