Testing out a now aged, but nice Olympus Pen Mini 2, I took a seaside stroll along Mairangi Bay in Auckland.
Majority of shots using built in ‘art filters’ and just some casual experimental fun.
Mairangi Bay stroll
A B&W Stroll in Town
Taking a stroll around town after work one day with a mate, cameras in hand. Been some time since Ive shot B&W film and self developed.
Cameras: Minolta 7xi
Film: Fomapan 200
Museum Wander
We took a New Years wander around the Auckland Museum. Armed with the Pentax Q and b&w, I gathered some still life.
Another Lockdown
Back on Film
Pulling out the Ricoh KR-5 (circa 1978) and a roll of Fujifilm 200, we ventured out to the Auckland Winter Gardens. Featured sometime back in my past photos, the gardens were designed at the beginning of the 1900’s and opened in 1913.
Weekend Fog
Late morning one weekend the fog had not cleared, yet the sun was high in the sky. Made for some interesting well lit but limited view scenery.
Tall Things
A stroll with mobile in hand between duties.
Upper CBD by Film
Heading into town with an expired roll of Kodak Gold 100 and the micro size Minox 35GL, I grabbed a few shots. The 35GL is a pure zone focused camera, meaning you select the estimated distance via a dial on the unit – no rangefinder to tell you if you are actually in focus. Particularly challenging and rewarding for wide open shots.
