“FUCK BNP” - Not exactly this picture by Don McCullin (http://www.fastfeatures.com/news/2012/01/08/don-mccullin/don-mccullin-kids-on-bradford-estate-1970s/) but graffiti I can get behind.

@mrssewnsew made an egg pizza for our youngest. Taken with my Polaroid SX70 and expired Polaroid TZ Artistic.
I recently managed to source a pack of expired Polaroid TZ Artistic film for a good price, but have a stash of the latest Impossible Project Pioneer film, and was debating which to use first. After some persuading from IP themselves and mostly impulse, I loaded one of my SX70s and headed off on a photo walk with a friend.
I was anxious to use the film because of it’s expiration and not knowing how it was stored, but thankfully every turned out fine with the test shot I took, apart from I managed to lose it! Having played around with IP film for a few months now, the excitement of not having to shield the film was great and watching the film develop in front of my eyes was magic. Thankfully I had taken a photo in situ of the lost Polaroid and by the time I got back the light was perfect in my living room so inspired by some dying roses I took this still life.

#streettogs #believeinfilm It is funny how you get used to a certain focal length. I think really I have framed the shot for a 50mm length lens, as I have been shooting a lot with 50mm lenses on my Zorki 1, Fed 2 and Kiev 4. Which is ironic considering when I shoot with a 50mm I usually wish I had a 35mm, like the Olympus XA I have used here.
I am attempting none-facial street photography, which I think I probably failed at here. The focal point is supposed to be the central man’s leopard print carrier bag. I think I have missed the decisive moment and a tighter crop would have served me better, either through using a 50mm or by getting closer.

#believeinfilm probably my most popular photo on flickr (in terms of views, comments, favourites) - it is from a broken camera. Read what you will into that; about flickr users and about the rest of my photography…

#believeinfilm #filmwins Some old ale pumping equipment? Or perhaps something vehicular?
