so consistently inconsistent!

Hey there loves! If theres one thing you can rely on, its that I’ll be inconsistent with blogging but I am back - for a while at least. I had a nice break though - for one, I finished my masters, with a distrinction! Woop woop. And two, I enjoyed the summer and tried to relax as much as possible.

I have been waiting to post though and I’ve been waiting because I had to get films developed. Double woop woop! Funny how I spend ages researching a digital camera and finally buying one, to then take a film camera out with me too. I’ll be sharing a mixture of film and digital photos here for a while though and its going to be so fun!

These photos were taken about two years ago on trips to the beach - one visit to Great Yarmouth and one to Skegness - the funny thing is that I actually couldn’t tell you which photo is of which place - they really are very similar. So this post is a little celebration of the British seaside resort.

Although I think its safe to say that the last photo is Great Yarmouth haha, it is ‘great’ there.

These were taken with a new Kodak Ektar H35 half frame camera which I thought would be perfect to carry around with a digital camera - and it was. I can’t decide how I feel about the fuzzy camera focus on some of these photos though - its meant to look like that I imagine but I moved away from the toy camera look a while ago and I haven’t really missed it that much. What do you guys think? Perhaps I’ll dig out my Yashica half frame camera again.

Camera: Kodak Ektar H35 half frame camera
Film: Agfa Vista 200 (with its tell tale green shift ha!)
Locations: Great Yarmouth and Skegness, two classic British seaside locations!

Doggos at the beach

Have I returned to blogging with a dedicated blog post of photos of dogs - yes, yes I have.

Did you spot the puppy in the first photo?! I totally forgot I took that photo - so what a delight when I got that photo developed!

Camera: Olympus OM-10 and LC-A III
Film: I can’t remember - I’ll check and get back to you. Maybe…

Burnham Overy Staithe

Lets keep going on the ‘photos I totally forgot to post’ train - the next stop is Norfolk and specifically, Burnham Ovary. Of course, now I’m feeling slightly homesick but also totally bamboozeled that I haven’t shared these before - because I simply love them!

When I was younger, I couldn’t wait to get out of Norfolk as fast as I could… can you believe that looking at these photos?! I can’t really either. But then I didn’t grow up in Burham Ovary haha, or any of the Burnhams. That would have been a very different experince I think. As I’ve gotten older, my appreciation for the beauty of Norfolk has definitely grown, and it was only in leaving the county that I really appreciated that even though places may seem similar, there really isn’t anywhere quite the same.

Camera: Minolta X-500
