Part of an exploratory series I made during the second lockdown in Melbourne.. Titled ‘135.5.25’ it observes my surroundings within the limits of the lockdowns travel areas. • • • • Lockdown 2, Melbourne, 2020 • • • • • #hasselblad #hasselblad500c #mediumformat #film #filmphotography #portra400 #colournegative #melbounre #lockdown2020 #portra400film #120film https://www.instagram.com/p/COJIq2_BNIM/?igshid=93h8nn6h0hpa

I am absolutely loving digitising some of my negs and the memories that brings. This is the pool at the Big Horn Lodge in Moab, Utah taken on a mountain bike assignment to the original mtb mecca. Fuji GA645Zi (sold it like a twat) and cross processed Kodak EPP. Loved everything about the place, apart from the desert dehydration out on Slickrock... - - - - - - - - #photo #photographer #photography #film #filmphotography #filmisalive #filmisnotdead #shootfilm #ishootfilm #mediumformatfilm #analogue #120 #6x6 #shootfilmstayskint #colournegative #crossprocess #c41 #fujifilm #ga645zi #analogforeverzine #645 #filmfeed #filmcommunity #filmcamera #filmphotographic #swimmingpool (at Big Horn Lodge) https://www.instagram.com/p/B5FPlB5Fx1D/?igshid=bfvuuxofrayv

Palestine 8102/ 120mm

Dr Roy Cape is one of the pivotal figures in local music. To call him a saxophonist and bandleader would be a bit like calling Einstein a mathematician. He was a musician, but his lasting impact in the T&T landscape is as an inspiration. A self-confessed problem child, he ended up in the Belmont Orphanage for four years, officially learning tailoring, but really learning to play first the clarinet, then the alto saxophone and the tenor pan. His early years were spent in the company of Ron Berridge, Clive Bradley, Fortunia Ruiz, Earl Rodney and Michael “Toby” Tobas. He was friends with Rudolph Charles and that relationship would prove to be a crucial blending point for the worlds of big band music and the steel orchestra as the two men talked about the future of the steelband and Cape began talking to his peers about arranging music for pan. Among those musicians were Beverly Griffith, Scipio Sargeant and Clive Bradley, who would arrange winning pieces for Desperadoes. His band, Roy Cape All Stars has launched the careers of more than a dozen major soca performers. I’d first photograph Roy Cape at his Petit Valley home at the urging of the late Terry Joseph and we did some lovely photographs of him leaning on a tall palm tree in his yard. Those photographs would be destroyed by my colleagues at the time at the Guardian, who rather industriously ran a scratch down the middle of the entire roll of medium format transparency film. A little less than a decade later, he would come to my studio for a series of portraits, releasing his long dreadlocks at my urging. In 2011, the University of the West Indies conferred an honorary doctorate on Cape for his lifetime of work in music. Today is his birthday.  #archive #filmphotography #colournegative #lyndersaydigital #music #musician #trinidad #roycapeallstars #steelband #arranger #trinidadandtobago #dreadlocks  #1999 #roycape #thelyndersayarchive #trinidadcarnival #bigband #saxophone (at Port of Spain, Trinidad and Tobago) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bwc3L0CgZZV/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1p2w0lgcauldl

Ok film fans. Got a family day out coming up and I want to take one of these along. I have the film, the lovely #lomography 400 #colournegative #film but which #rangefinder #filmcamera to take. #olympus35rc ? #olympus35sp ?or my latest beaut the #voightlander #vito cle? All good in their own way, but for ease and speed most likely the rc with its small form and fully auto exposure. Which ones your choice? #londoncameraproject #filmstagraeme #filmisnotdead #filmphotography #ishootfilm #ig_film #everybodyfilm #filmshooterscollective #thefilmshot #onfilm #bjp #35mm #35analog #analogphotography (at Flitwick)

Some more of my series on Norlane, a Northern suburb of Geelong, about 55 mins from Melbourne. Originally settled by migrant workers coming into Geelong to work at Ford, Shell and nearby factories, housing was originally largely government. Some were even prefab homes imported from Europe. Closures across these local manufacturing sectors have affected the residents of Norlane. It undoubtedly has its share of problems, but the people I met we’re friendly and down to earth. All shot on medium format film. - - - - - #film #colourneg #filmphotography #filmphotographic #filmisnotdead #filmportrait #fujifilm #analogue #mediumformatfilm https://www.instagram.com/p/CAjhMRwJNNm/?igshid=enk0r5f4olll
