Ilford FP4, HP5 and Delta 3200

Recently I finally had 3 rolls of film processed that had been sitting around for far to long gathering dust. Unfortunately the negatives showed that my camera was not exactly working the way it is supposed to resulting in around half of the frame not being exposed on many of my shots. I was still able to salvage some of my work which I am very happy with.

None of these photos have had any kind of digital manipulation they are just straight scans from the negatives.

I really enjoy using film. The quality, right out of the camera is, so much nicer that what digital can achieve. For my own enjoyment I reckon I will find myself shooting much more film. Jobs however will be digital. Film is too much of a hassle for that.
