#JAMIE: it’s a few weeks over 25 years since I met this lovely geezer at our friend’s stag weekend. I gave him the original print from Joe’s Basement which he gave to his mother, “man, she flipped!”

The picture is a fabulous example of the power of the Contax G 45mm paired with Ilford XP2.

#WISHINGTREE: #Wiltshire is a #magical country with wonderful light and has never let me down. Must spend more time around this marvellous group of beech trees. #lordoftherings #lotr #trees #roots #ruralphotography #countryside #bwphotography #blackandwhitephotography #leica #leicaq2

#AVEBURY: a walk through the stones. I have only admired #Stonehenge from afar and never actually visited, but this is my fourth or so visit to Avebury over twenty years. It’s a bit more organized than it once was, and many more people, but still a magical place at a human scale. #henge #stonecircle #prehistoric #neolithic #worldheritage #worldheritagesite #countryside #bwphotography #blackandwhitephotography #leica #leicaq2 #summilux #rural #ruralbritain #britain

#FILM: The Vish Photographic Rescue and Salvage operation saves a whole bunch of fabulous kit from the skip. You’ve never even seen #IlfordHP4 220, have you? And these #HP5 135 canisters are sealed! Never seen those before. #filmphotography #filmisnotdead #blackandwhitephotography
