Oxford: Summer Eights, 2015 – part 1

Thursday, May 5th, 2016

It’s a few weeks to go until Summer Eights 2016 and I’ve just realised that I didn’t seem to post any shots from 2015 so here’s the start of some. I remember the weather on the final day was sunny and hot but the number of spectators seemed to be a little down on the previous year. More to come.

[Tech info:] Pentax 645N, 105/2.4 lens with 67-645 adapter, Fuji Reala 100 (expired) film.

Oxford: Summer 8’s 2011 (part IV)

Sunday, June 19th, 2011

Here are some more black & white shots from Eights week this year. I still have 2 rolls of colour film to develop which I hope to do myself some time soon once I’ve batched enough rolls together to make it worthwhile mixing the chemicals because once they’re mixed they only last a week.

There will be one more set of black & white images to come.
