collaboration

The amazingly talented petranovskaja and I decided to collaborate on a medium format project together. She took autumn, I took late spring. These are the results.
camera purchase
I just bought a Polaroid 100 back for my hasselblad, and a haul of fp100c film for it. Very excited (more so than is probably sensible) for its arrival later this week.
It is my gift to myself for being a very clever Catherine and getting 90% for my MRes essay last week.

Here’s a picture of something totally unrelated in the meantime:

Not my dog. I don’t have dogs. I like cats. I’ve got nothing against dogs. They’re very cute and funny. When they are other people’s dogs and somewhere over there. I like cats.
the ponderbench

Taken yesterday in Hanley Cemetery. It’s one of my favourite benches in the cemetery, but this stenciling is new. Every public space should have a ponderbench.

Pixelation in the dark pola. Quite like it.
I’m taking a ceramics class, just 6 saturday mornings, so nothing in-depth. I’ve had a pretty rocking idea of stuff to make next week. I wish I’d brought clay home with me so I could make a start now.
dad on the beach

Don’t know what beach, don’t know what year, but I know it’s my dad.
Made another massive haul of old family photos when I went over to my aunt’s house on Monday. I don’t think I’ll ever manage to scan them all.

I had a minor accident with a very ancient pack of Time Zero film, which mananged to leave white goo all over the insides of my SX-70 camera. After cleaning the rollers as best I could on the fly, with plenty of spit and the aid of my t-shirt, the pack of Blend I put in next has these lovely blobby light things on the right. There must be dried goo still on the rollers. I’m not entirely sure I want to clean it off - I like the borkedness.
roll up, roll up!
I only went and listed some new prints in my etsy store.
I love saying ’store’. It’s so … American.
Anyway, go and fund my new-found joblessness.

Yes, as a child I collected badges, and I still have them all. I also collected rubbers (erasers), and still have them too. Now that would make a good photo.
