Music. bonding and booze
Clitheroe is a small market town in Lancashire, famous for its witches, good food and drink. And, (maybe) having the smallest Norman keep in England. Each September, it hosts the Ribble Valley Scooter Rally - a gathering with music, vintage clothing stalls, and a ‘ride-in’ of several hundred scooter enthusiasts. Previously known as the Ribble Valley Mod-Weekender, the event is a melting pot of different sub-cultures; Mods, Skinheads, Scooterboys, and every other conceivable spl...
Summer of Photograms
My end goal with my photography, at least for as long as I can remember, was to make darkroom prints. I love the thought processes in darkroom printing, the excitement when I manage to find the combination of burning, dodging and other printing techniques that turns my imagined image into a print that I can share. Preferring the tactile nature of darkroom craft, I never cottoned on to digital photo processing or printing.
Then in the spring of 2019 I developed a long term illness th...
The slowest black and white film in our range is PANF+. Although not as popular as the other 2 films that make up our PLUS range, this film's exceptional fine grain and beautiful tones make it a favourite with many portrait and landscape photographers. Thank you to everybody that shared shots with us for this week's #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #shotonpanf.

There’s a few I could post that I feel encapsulate the sort of feeling or thought process I have when I’m working on photos, but for me, so far? It’s this image.

Nagi
I met Nagi on my weekly walk down Hollywood Blvd. Each Sunday I would take the Metro from Long Beach to Hollywood and Highland. Shooting and conversing with those I'd meet along the way. On this specific day, October 27th,2019 to be exact, I met Nagi on my way back to the Metro station. He was with his friend walking his bike along the stars. His ecstatic energy and rambunctious demeanor instantly sparked my attention. I originally stopped and asked him for a quick portrait along the Boulevard. Howeve...
