My Instax Mini 40 Camera Predictions
On the 7th of April 2021, Fuji Film will be releasing their new camera, the Mini 40. These are my predictions as to what the features of this camera may be. Given that I have not worked out the logic of the naming convention of Instax cameras, I am relying on what I know about …
Lomo Metropolis 35mm film
On the same day that I shot the Revolog Tesla 2, I shot this role of 35mm, ISO 100-400, colour negative Lomo Metropolis film. This film has been carefully crafted to produce desaturated, high-contrast photos. These places are normally filled with people and it was surreal to see them so empty on a lovely day in May. …
Revolog Tesla 2 35mm film
This is the first and so far only roll of Revolog Tesla 2 film I have shot and I think I shot it on my Canon 3000V. During the Covid-19 Pandemic Lockdown in Dublin, May 2020, I snuck into town early one day, making sure that I was socially distanced, as I wanted to record …
Photography during a Pandemic
I have been meaning to write this post for a long time, as there has been a gap on my Blog from September 2019 until now, January 2021. The main reason for this is the Global Covid-19 Pandemic. Covid-19 officially hit Irish shores on the 29th of February 2020, when I heard about the first …

Film Washi 35mm Film
I ordered this box of Washi Film from Analogue Wonderland, a great online film shop, based in England. I have tried a couple of rolls so far, so I will add posts about them later on. According to their site, Film Washi was launched in 2013 and is the world’s smallest company to produce photographic …
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 …
