A trip to Kilmacurragh National Botanical Gardens was organised by Offshoot Photography Club in Wicklow. It was lovely to wander around this particular garden. I was delighted to see that there were some bluebells there. I have shared some of these shots in another post. There is a link to this garden below should you …
Olympus Trip XB3 Big Finder Camera
I found this Olympus Trip XB3 Big Finder 35mm Point and Shoot Camera in our house and immediately adopted it, as is my habit. I loaded a roll of Ilford HP5+, and went to a local park to see what it could do. I have included three of the photos below. My favourite feature of …
Infrared Film Workshop with Monochrome Meath
Peter Fitzsimons from Monochrome Meath runs a number of film photography workshops, I have attended four of them so far. The photos below came from the Infrared workshop that was held last Saturday.

Rapeseed Field
A few weeks ago I went for a drive around Carlow and took these photos of a Rapeseed Field that I found. These fields are always so bright and cheerful, and I love how they always make the sky look interesting, thankfully this particular day was bright.
Film Washi 35mm Film

According to their site, Film Washi was launched in 2013 and is the world’s smallest company to produce photographic …

Redbull Cliff Diving Dun Laoghaire
This was the first time I have ever attended the Cliff diving event, even though I have meant to go before. It was spectacular to watch people diving from twenty and twenty six meter boards. The sea was approximately 12 degrees Celsius, which is why the competitors were allowed to wear wetsuits, if they wished …
A Trip into Town
Here are a selection of shots I took in town, a few weeks ago. Three of the shots were taken from the top of a carpark, one is a piece of street art by the artist Art of the Heid. The other is a shot from the Huguenot cemetery. I am not sure which film …
Mount Usher on Film
I did not make a note of which film these were shot on and I am still waiting to collect the negatives from the Lab. Mount Usher Gardens in Wicklow is always worth a visit, especially in Spring or Summer. These were taken with my Canon 300V camera, I think. I was delighted to see …
FujiColour C200 35mm Film
A recent trip to Marlay Park, on a lovely Summers day for a Pinhole Workshop, enabled me to take my Canon 300V loaded with a roll of FujiColour C200 film for an outing. I am trying to keep better notes on what film I used with which camera, in an effort to help me decide …
