Yesterday I had to take my car in for servicing, and took the SX70 with me to take some pictures on the walk home.

Friday Film Shot
Another little wander around the estate, with the SX-70 and the latest colour polaroid film, Autumn picking up now.
Friday Film Shots
I took delivery of new polaroid films this week, the Impossible project has now bought out the Polaroid company, and has reverted to t he original name. They’ve also released a new camera, and improved the film. It used to take 35-40 minutes for the Impossible film to develop, but with the new film it’s only 15 minutes. It was a sunny morning here, so after doing the chores I went for a wander with the SX70 loaded with a new film. 10 minutes later and the sky clouded over and on came the rain, sigh, so home I came with only 3 shots.

regular readers will recognised The Tree from my 366 last year,
and some dangly branches on the turn to Autumn, just before it rained.

It rained, it stopped, it rained, it stopped, ad infinitum.
I cooked egg fried rice for the weekend, and (soft focus 🙂 ) enchilada’s for dinner
did the housework, did the washing, and so
roll on the weekend!

Still waiting for my roll of film from the rollei to come back, patience is not my thing really! 
So back to the SX70 for today though really there isn’t enough light with the ongoing cloud and rainy stuff. Supposed to be better tomorrow so hopefully out with the Fuji and my pal Sophie.
Anyway here’s a couple from the shed and the garden
and Happy Celebrations to my Canadian pals, it’s 150 years since they got a country!

Only one of my bedroom roses today. That was the end of one pack of films and the new pack I’ve put in is faulty that happens sometimes and it’s really annoying. I wanted to take a picture of my first ever home made loaf of bread but 3 shots in I realised it wasn’t going to happen. Never mind it tastes lush and we had beans on toast for tea. I’ve run out of polaroid film for the minute but my Rollei shots will be with me next time, am excited to see how they turned out.
Disappointed the electrician didn’t turn up today to switch the shed on, apparently he’s off sick. Hmm, Friday is never a believable day to be off sick!
Anyway here’s my roses
a bit blurry but it never seems to matter on a polaroid.

Today is Postcard from the Shed. It’s another busy day here in Fraggleland, Phil is putting me more shelves up in between applying stain varnish to the window frames, door and overhangy thing. I’m busy packing up my room indoors and storing it in the spare room, so Phil can take over my room and then I can move into his. 🙂 Never knew there was so much to do to have a shed! 🙂

I took my SX-70 with me to Poland, and took a few at Eddy’s house.
(Good) Friday Film SHots
SO Easter weekend is here and of course the weather is pants. Forecast said mainly dry, cloudy with bright spells, reality was rain, cloud, more rain then a cloudy dry spell. And it’s ruddy cold outside. Phil is beavering away on the shed, and I’ve been defrosting the fridge’s ice monster and doing housework. Yipee. Not really inspired to shoot but did a couple of still lifes, to remind me of the sea and beach, which is where I’d like to be on a sunny day!
Happy Easter peeps!

Ugh I am struggling with the Lightroom-smugmug interface today, so have taken a break to shoot some polaroids, just around the house, back to the struggle after :/.
My herby garden is coming along nicely, I nearly killed the coriander but rescued it just in time,
My mums plant is firing up some very red shoots, another back from the dead plant 🙂
and I replaced the chrysanthemums from the other week with some gorgeous pink lily’s, must shoot them in colour 🙂
and finally, now for some ‘proper’ Friday film shots to come. I really like shooting film, and I’ve been dicking about with a holga and the lubitel, but the lubitel is not flexible enough for me, it only goes up to 1/500 shutter speed and the focusing screen is dire, especially for someone who needs varyfocals. So here is a proper jobby.
I’ve already started practicing, and am using a light meter to (hopefully) get the settings right, but it’s going to be a steep learning curve. The history of the camera is quite fascinating and I’ll probably do a Fraggle Report about it at some point over on Across The Universe . Anyways, back to the struggle..

Today started off grim but this afternoon the wind blew all the clouds away and left behind some blue skies and sunshine. I’ve been chasing patches of light around the house with my polaroids and still taking shots of the cherry blossom tree before all t he petals are gone.

A gorgeous sunny spring day today, played with my SX70, my Jobpro 600 and finally got round to shooting with the Lubitel 166B TLR, not sure what I’m doing with it but will see when the roll is complete and I get it developed. It’s a devil to operate and I’ll do a report on it when I’ve got any pictures from it. Happy day today 🙂
