A Different View
After the success of last year’s competition we again opened up entries to students from around the world.
There were hundreds of prints entered, all shot on our ILFORD or Kentmere black and white films and printed in the darkroom by the students. The high quality of teaching from lecturers and educators was reflected by the difficulty that the judges had in choosing the winning image for this year’s theme of ‘A Different View’.
Winner!
As always, choosing the winner was not e...

I took this image in January 2022. We had been having a lot of fog that was lasting longer than the usual early morning ‘til sunrise. I knew where I wanted to go. This place, Indian Slough, is some 70 minutes away from my house. I could tell when I got there that the sun was beginnin...

This image is an all-timer for me! I always find myself returning to this image because it’s perfect, from the little girl smiling directly at me to the boys playing baske...
We loved seeing your take on #depthoffield for this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites. You have all captured such beautiful images, making it incredibly hard to choose from.
@sbills15. Hasselblad 500CM and 120CFi lens with 56MM extension tube. ILFORD Delta 400 was the film I used. Printed on ILFORD MG FB Classic 11x14 paper. Aperture set at F/8 #depthoffield #lfordphoto #fridayfavourites #hasselbald500CM @Hasselblad

This week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites theme is #panfonfilm. ILFORD PANF+ proudly claims its position as the slowest-speed film in our plus range; its high contrast, smooth tonality, and fine detail make it a favourite with many portrait and landscape photographers.
@sbills15. I I happened to see this scene walking around campus at work. Love these results I got using PanF Plus in my Hasselblad 500CM. I added a 16MM extension tube onto my 120MM CFi lens to get a bit closer. #panfonfilm #fridayfavour...
One Specific Speed Rating
Us film photographers are used to the limitations of our medium. In fact, we often regard them as strengths, and not weaknesses. But even we can’t really take issue with the suggestion that as soon as we begin to expose a roll of film we are limited to one specific speed rating, making it more difficult to adapt to quickly changing light conditions. On digital: no problem. Just whack the ISO up to some implausibly high number, and keep shooting. Sadly we just can’t do that mid...
