Mamiya 7ii, Mamiya 43mm f/4.5L, Fomapan 400, severe grief from some blokes in a van.

“The scene? The flats? Is that OK?”
It wasn’t. I took the picture anyway.

Hollow, Nunhead on Flickr.Via Flickr:
Mamiya 7ii, Mamiya 43mm f/4.5L, Fomapan 400 which is cheap and cheerful.
The more I go to Nunhead, the more it fascinates me. Like Ta Prohm with a railway station you can feel like Indiana Jones clambering through the undergrowth, ignored by dog walkers.
Some romantic soul (not me - I don’t ever arrange stuff in photos except the odd twig) had found another decapitated angel a home five feet closer to the Lord in a hollow in a very old oak tree. I would have a job to find it again if asked.

King’s Sedgemoor Drain (f/235) on Flickr.Via Flickr:
eBay doth provide so off on a test mission with my new old Zero Image 6x9 multi format pinhole camera. To which everyone’s reaction appears to be, “It’s a wooden box”.”With an exceedingly small hole in the front”, I fruitlessly counter.
Anyway adventures on the softer side, and finally a form of photography that needs brighter light.

Copse, Somerset Levels on Flickr.Via Flickr:
Mamiya 7ii, Mamiya 43mm f/4.5L, Provia 400x
If you look at the original there is a flock of starlings to the right hand side of the trees. If I had been able to wind one and retake, or delayed the shot for 3 or 4 seconds, it would have been a better pic. Ah the bitter sting of regret.

A return to an old project in time for it to draw to a close. The Somerset Levels are a man-made landscape, disguised as countryside with few roads and few public rights of way. Agricultural factory-land.

Urn, Nunhead on Flickr.Via Flickr:
What I find so affecting about Nunhead is not that people believed they entered the afterlife there, but  years after they died they entered a sort of afterdeath. Forgotten, but not gone. A promise of eternity broken within the span of a few generations.
Nunhead now remains as a memorial to graves rather than the dead.
Do check out the set of “The Grave” if you are that way inclined. 
Shot on Ben’s Yashica Mat 124G with Neopan 400, which I shall miss when I give it back. Not the sharpest tool in the box (the Yash not Ben) but I liked composing on ground glass.
