Berwick Polaroids

Eeee, so here we are, the first film photos from our week away. I dropped my other rolls of film into the lab today, so I should have those soonish as well, hurray!

These were taken when Thomas and I went on a little walk along the river mouth path up to the Royal Border Bridge and around the remains of the castle ruins. I've always loved the bridge in Berwick, so I'm glad I got a few more photos of it.

I always have really good intentions with my Polaroid Land camera - I take it away with me, but then I usually get only a few photos... It's pretty clumsy to carry around, so I think that is one of the reasons I only take a few photos and normally I pick other cameras before it too. I always say I should use it more when I see the results though as I usually love them, the last two of these I especially adore (these are from when the sun decided to finally come out).

I can't wait to get my other photos back already too, we went to so many different places around the Berwick area that I can't wait to show you!

Whitby Polaroids Part 2

My luck with this camera seems to vary, it's a very different approach to my other cameras and the learning curve, especially with the colour film seems to be quite steep, but boy I still love it, even when I overexpose or underexpose my photos.

Whitby Polaroids

Hellooo!!

I'm back and currently feeling relaxed and refreshed (who knows how long that will last lol) and I'm excited to share my first photos from Whitby with you.

Ohhhhh, how I love this camera/combination, it is so fun to carry around, so fun to use and I love the results (even though I have over exposed the results a number of times). I'm so thrilled with these photos, I think they capture the oldy world feeling that Whitby has and the Abbey ones details are so perfect, I nearly danced around the Abbey when I pulled those apart.

You totally understand that I want to be back there right now don't you? Lets all go :)

Polaroids from last week...

Our week off was a week of two halves. The first couple of days we chilled out and relaxed (I started and completed Stacking, hehe, it is so fun!) and the last few days we went exploring. On Wednesday we hopped on the train and went to Knaresborough and Harrogate (they're on the same train line) and I took my polaroid land camera too.

I've struggled a little with the development time with this film - I think mainly due to the colder weather here in England, the first two are a little underexposed and then getting this film to scan well is hard, you'll have to trust me that they look better in person lol.

The first three are from Knaresborough, easily the prettiest place in England (I think anyway) and the last photo was taken in a stunning park that we found in Harrogate - I was delighted when the sun came out and formed the shadows across the floor.

I'm a little apprehensive about using the colour film with this camera as I know it takes a lot longer to develop and like all films, this film is precious but I also can't wait to see the results too especially as these black and white results are so pretty, even though they aren't perfect.

p.s. Susannah shared The Conversation last week and I've watched 5 already in a day, have you seen it?
