New Project

I managed to pick up a Pentax Auto 110 film camera in June. The lens is a 28mm f2.8 and I must admit I'm impressed. The ease of focusing and quality of the images is great. After a fruitless search for 110 cartridges on the high street I managed to pick up a load of expired Tudor 200asa on eBay. I decided to make use of one of the camera's flaws and multiple expose the film - if you don't press on the back of the camera you can cock the shutter but not advance the film. I think this would make an interesting project and you can see a sample image from the first film here.

I Love West Leeds 2010

Well the Lamppost Gallery is up and running. The five town streets represented are Farsley, Bramley, Pudsey, Rodley and Armley. I'm planning on going to have a look over the weekend.
