After the tribulations of the last blog post I have bitten the bullet and instituted a solution – a photography logbook. Say goodbye to mix-up film confusion, I hope. The logbook has come into it’s own for these photos, they’re spread over a couple of film types and a variety of locations and dates.
The weather was noticeably worse this year. I’m not made of sugar though, so as long as the camera was looked after then I was out there. The only issue is that everyone else takes cover, so less people on the streets for me to photograph. I like a challenge.
If it wasn’t for real life I’d get a lot more photography done. It seemed like I’d never get out in Edinburgh over August but some careful calendar management did the trick. In fact I managed to get out a good deal more than I thought. There was even a fair amount of evening photography as well, which isn’t something I usually do.
Particularly lovely weather in spring this year. Just as well, photography input has been somewhat lacking for quite a while now, so a few dry and warm-ish days are most welcome. So a good few days are set aside, the bag is filled with plenty of Ilford HP5, and off I go, at long last. Good to be back on it, must work on not leaving it so long next time.
It’s taken a while to process the film and get the pics online, but we are finally here. Photographs from the streets of Edinburgh during August, the Festival month.
