A Snapshot of London » Friends http://www.t52.org/blog A London Photo Blog by James Bardolph Tue, 13 Sep 2011 23:24:16 +0000 en hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.1 Some photos http://www.t52.org/blog/2011/09/some-photos/ http://www.t52.org/blog/2011/09/some-photos/#comments Tue, 13 Sep 2011 23:23:47 +0000 James http://www.t52.org/blog/?p=2889 And finally, a post. This is a roll of APX 25 I started over a year ago, Begun in a Leica, finished in a Nikon FM. Dirty scanner. No time to rescan.

Some guys took a photo of themselves while the camera was hanging on my back.

Sunglasses in the abyss

Unforunately my scanner won’t scan a bunch of the negatives because they are too dark and it can’t tell where the shots end.  Film negative scanner recommendations, anyone?

I find that photography never does the theatre justice; you really must be there in person to see the brilliance of the performers.

‘Round 2′. Round 2 is their newest production – small plays where the audience gets to choose who plays what role beforehand. A different experience every week.

‘The seagull’. In this production they bring no props; they use items found in the theatre and they ask the crowd to bring props with them. The cast varies every week, and while they follow the story of Chekov’s ‘The Seagull’, all the scenes are ad lib.

P.S. go and see ’round 2′ by The Factory at the Electricity Showrooms from March. http://www.thefactorytheatre.co.uk/

Geeky stuff: Leica M6, Leica 35mm 1.4 Summilux, Kodak Tri-X +2

Award-winning dog in a Superdog outfit.

Old pics, new scans

These are photos I had developed in the lab before I got a scanner. I originally scanned the prints on a flatbed and they looked horrible.

Times Square has lots of people

And windows errors.

Central Park carries exhausted children

And sad news.

The Museum of Modern Art measures your height

And writes your name on the wall next to it.

A king among men. Shame I can’t shoot straight.

Gareth recently graduated

And Vince is Vince. Or ‘Vincenzo’, in this instance.

Harlem. Met a friend I have not seen since secondary school and he took us to the soul food restaurant.

Despite all the soul food on offer, Ryan only chose Lettuce and mashed potato. Crazy, I say.

Simon.

Back near Times Square.

Ran into the Turkish girls again.

I helped her friend with her pram up some stairs and she asked me when I would take her picture.

On and around The Highline

Going home for the final time.

Not before a spot of Golf though.

Geeky stuff: Canon EOS 20D, 24-70 f2.8 lens. Nikon FM, 24mm f2 lens; Tri-x 400.
