Nikon D90 - Return of my first DSLR.

 Ah sweet Nikon D90, I have missed thee!

My first DSLR returned home this week after being loaned to my Granddaughter for her A level Photography course and I had to get out for a wander to reaquaint myself with my old friend. Also back is my Nikon 50mm f/1.8 AIS Longnose, quite possibly the nicest 50mm lens Nikon ever made, and my Tamron Adaptall 2 28-70mm close focus macro zoom lens.

When I bought my Nikon D90 back in 2017 I couldn't afford an autofocus lens and made do with the Tamron Adaptall 2 28-70mm zoom lens I bought for my Pentax SP500. I soon progressed onto AF Nikkor D series lenses that I have come to love, but I still love to use manual focus lenses as often as possible.

The 50mm longnose came with my Nikon F801 that was a gift from my dear friend, Muzza. I soon learned what a little gem that lens is and used it a lot over the next few years. It made sense to let my Granddaughter borrow them to discover what I was raving about and she took full advantage of them. We are all incredibly proud of her. 

For my walk I visited the local farm roads and nature trails to get reacquainted with my D90 and 50mm lens. I had been stuck indoors for a couple of days as Storm Lillian had crossed the UK and was glad to get out over the August Bank Holiday weekend. I visited the Horses and took a few shots of them with Baldy the Baldax for the Frugal Film Project before continuing along the footpath through the woodland and around the big field. I tried to find interesting textures, shapes and colours, with Himalayan Balsam, Thistles and Blackberries being my favourite items to photograph. There were Horses in the big field too and I took a few shots before heading to the Wheat Fields.

I missed the Harvest again.

One day I will get to see the farmer harvesting the crops, but, as always, I am a week or so too late. I made the most of the cloudy sky and rows of straw crossing the field, I just had to be patient and wait for the sun to bathe it in light as the low clouds had moved in. I was in no particular rush and could get myself lined up nicely whilst I waited for them to pass. With that sorted at the half way point, I headed towards home.

On my way home I took a few shots of the trees, power lines and pylons, you can't walk past them without taking a photo, it's the law! I also snapped a few shots of the antique ploughs on the walls by Giants Hall and the road through the woodland. I really enjoyed my walk on the day but, as always when I go for a walk, I was worn out by the time I got home.

I processed my photos with Affinity Photo 2 and I'm happy to have got a few decent photos as well as a few where my skills eluded me. I'm ok with that as it's been a long time since I used my D90 and 50mm f/1.8 manual focus lens. The exercise today was to get reacquainted with them and not to expect anything special. It was like finding an old favourite T-Shirt in the drawer and enjoying the memories made whilst wearing it and the feeling of comfort you get from it. It is exactly why I enjoy photography. The good memories made on the day can be relived long into the future.

Here's a few favourites from my walk and as always I have placed them and more in an album on Flickr you can visit by clicking the link below. I hope you enjoy them.

Nikon D90 - 50mm f/1.8 AIS 

 

 

3 films + 2 cameras = 1 Afternoon of Fun!

 Whilst at the Lancashire Mining Museum, I took the opportunity to break out my OM-2 and my Agfa Isolette as I knew that one roll of film just wasn't going to be enough for our afternoon photowalk around the museum. I loaded a 120 medium format roll of Rollei Retro 400S into my Agfa Isolette and also a 35mm roll of the same film into my OM-2. Keith had given me both films a while ago and I decided to use them on the gloriously sunny afternoon we were blessed with that day. I also had a roll of Kodak Double-X that was my last roll of the day in my OM-2

I really enjoy using my Agfa Isolette I, it's a great inexpensive way into medium format film for any aspiring photographer. I have been fortunate enough to have not one, but two. I bought the second one initially for spares for my original Isolette, but after putting a test roll through it I found it was working just fine. Not a bad find for £15.

I had also fitted my Watameter rangefinder to help with any close ups I might find, but mostly shot it maxed out with a shutter speed at 1/200th and aperture between f/16 and f/22, depending on the cloud coverage. The lens hood I found online also came in very handy for dealing with the high and bright summer sunshine we enjoyed on the day.

I was also shooting Rollei Retro 400S with my OM-2 and it was a good experiment to compare Kentmere 400 and Rollei Retro 400S shot at Box speed. Kentmere 400 is slightly cheaper than Rollei Retro 400S, but how do they compare when shot with Olympus cameras and their marvellous Zuiko lenses? My OM101 had the Zuiko 50mm f/2 power Focus lens and my OM-2 had my favourite Zuiko 28mm f/3.5. I would find out when I developed my film a couple of days later.

I also shot a few frames and a couple of videos with my Nokia phone camera. I'm conciously using it more, not to overtake my film photography, but to compliment it. It's always with me so why the heck not! It gives me a chance to show you the machinery running and you too can experience the sounds of an engineering workshop. I love the sound of vintage machinery, it's hypnotic and I reckon you can dance to it.

It doesn't take long to shoot 3 rolls of film with 2 cameras in 1 afternoon when you're having fun. It was around closing time when we finished our film photography shenanigans for the day and we will definitely be back to visit the museum again. It's free entry, there's refreshments and a gift shop. The Engine Running days are quite popular as folk enjoy seeing the winding engine run and have a ride on the narrow guage railway. Donations are always welcome too. I will post the link to the museum website below.

I developed both of my rolls of Rollei Retro 400S in HC110 1+31 dilution B for 6 minutes at 20 celcius and soon had them hanging to dry in my bathroom. The next day I developed my roll of Kodak Double-X in HC110 1+63 dilution H for 10 minutes at 20 celcius and hung that to dry. Once dry, I digitised my films with my Nikon D700, Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f/2.5 macro lens, Valoi film holders, Pixl-Latr and A5 size led light pad. I edited the RAW files with Affinity Photo 2.

How did Rollei Retro 400S and Kodak Double-X fare? Rather well actually. Rollei Retro 400S in 120 medium format is a great film and certainly getting up there with HP5 and Tri-X in the same format. For the price it's a film I enjoyed great results with and I will use it again.

How did Rollei Retro 400S compare to Kentmere 400 in 35mm? It shone, especially when I put the orange filter on for a few shots. It's better than Kentmere, not by a huge margin, but enough to put it above Kentmere.  Kentmere is a decent everyday film for the budget concious film photographer. Rollei Retro 400S just has that little bit more performance and I could happily shoot it every day. It's worth spending the extra money for Rollei Retro 400S.

Kodak Double-X is in a league of it's own. I use aperture priority when using my OM-2 and my Zuiko 28mm f/3.5 is a great street lens. Kodak Double-X, I must say, is a great choice for an everyday film if you can buy it cheap enough. Some folks like to buy a bulk roll and respool it themselves. I just like to buy a couple of rolls as a treat every so often and it never fails to make me smile.

Here's a few of my favourite shots from my three rolls shot with 2 cameras in 1 afternoon. It was a lot of fun and I now have a choice to make for my next visit as I could happily shoot Kentmere 400, Rollei Retro 400S and Kodak Double-X again next time. Cheap film doesn't always mean you will produce crappy photos, I put some effort into it and got few bangers. All of the films I shot during our visit to the museum don't cost a lot, make sure to shop around for the best bargains.

As always I have placed them and more in albums on Flickr you can visit and don't forget to visit the Lancashire Mining Museum website, all via the links below. I hope you enjoy them.

Frugal Film Project 2024 - July - 35mm

 Last minute Jim strikes again! Yep, I left my Frugal Film Project 2024 roll of Kentmere 400 for July to the last minute and to be honest I needed the break. I have been four blogs ahead for most of this year and I took the opportunity of a break during July without having to worry about not having anything to share with you. It's hard to find inspiration during summer, everything is green and whilst I like seeing the trees full of leaves, there's only so much you can do in the woods during the summer.

Our pal Keith came to visit on the last weekend in July and I suggested we visit somewhere local for our photowalk. There are more than a few places to visit here in the north west of England that are well worth pointing a camera at. I suggested the Lancashire Mining Museum at Astley Green, midway between Wigan and Manchester.

The Museum has a selection of working machinery on display and they like to run them for the visitors to enjoy. Sadly not with steam, but with compressed air. The colliery once was powered by 16 boilers, the last of which is on display, and burned coal dust and gas from the colliery to make the steam to power all the machinery.

To have a working coal/gas fired boiler in the 21st century requires a lot of expense before you even think of firing it up. A boiler service can run into 6 figures depending on the condition, a new one is prohibitively expensive for them, so you can forgive the Museum for choosing compressed air to power their working machinery. It's nice to see them run.

There is also the last surviving winding engine and head gear in the Lancashire Coalfield. This equipment has not been transported to the museum, it is the same winding engine and head gear that was in use when the site was a working colliery and also the very last still in place in Lancashire. The engine is run on select days during the year.

Astley Green Colliery closed in 1970 and was mothballed for many years for good reason. There are papers lodged with the Instutute of Mining Engineers that detailed the engineering challenges that had to be overcome to reach the coal seam 2,600 feet below the surface. It took 4 years to sink the first shaft courtesy of the soft, unstable ground on the edge of Chat Moss and those papers are studied to this day by students of civil engineering.

The shafts are capped, there's no cable reaching down into the depths below and there's no danger of anyone falling down a very deep hole. The head gear is showing its age now and is in need of repair which the Musuem are actively raising funds to carry out. Steel needs painting to keep the rust at bay, but after a hundred years that battle is slowly being won by the rust. Donations are most welcome to help keep this last man standing for many years to come.

There is also a narrow gauge railway and the days when the railway is running are a way for the museum to raise some much needed funds to keep this bastion of the Lancashire Coalfields alive. It would be a great shame if it were to be lost, consigned to history like all the coal mines before it. You can find out more about the museum by clicking the link below.

Keith and I were in our element and shot several rolls of film, including this roll of Kentmere 400 I shot with my Olympus OM101 and Zuiko 50mm f/2 power focus lens for the Frugal Film Project. It's the first time I have used the 50mm lens and I also took the opportunity to use an orange filter on several shots as the sun was high and bright. It seemed like the way to go to make the best use of the conditions. 

For two middle aged fans of local history and the machinery that powered the industrial revolution, this was heaven. The working machinery on display has been lovingly restored and one or two have a big end knock that would make some folk worried. I would be if it was my motorbike, but the pump with a hypnotic knock is over a century old. It isn't under any stress and could probably run like that for another century. It will get a new babbitt bearing eventually.

One exhibit I am glad has been preserved is Fred Dibnah's home built head gear from the shaft he dug in his back yard. I'm sure Fred would approve that he is remembered at the Mining Museum. He spent his life collecting steam powered machinery and restoring them to working order so we could enjoy them for years to come. Fred's programmes about the golden age of Steam and the Industrial Revolution are still shown on TV and YouTube today.

Sadly, as often happens when I'm having fun, I ran out of film. Four rolls of film and a few videos shot with my phone ws a very productive and very enjoyable afternoon at Lancashire Mining Museum. It was almost closing time so we said our goodbye's to the staff and we headed home, happy with what we achieved that afternoon. We will be back.

I developed my roll of Kentmere 400 a day or two later using HC110 1+47 dilution E and hung it to dry in my bathroom overnight. I digitised it the next day with my Nikon D700, Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f/2.5 macro lens, Valoi 35mm film holder, Pixl-Latr and A5 size led light pad. I processed the RAW files with Affinity Photo 2.

Here's a few of my favourites from our afternoon at the Lancashire Mining Museum. It's a great place to visit with knowledgeable and very helpful staff on hand to talk about various exhibits and answer any questions. It's a great afternoon outing for all the family and you can find the opening times via the link below.

I am also very impressed with the Zuiko 50mm f/2 Power Focus lens that came with my Olympus OM101 given to me by my dear friend, Wellies. Olympus made their name from Optics before entering the camera market and the Zuiko range of lenses that accompanied the OM cameras are outstanding. This 50mm f/2 power focus lens follows that tradition of optical excellence and I'm glad it's in my kit.

As always I have placed these photos and more in my Frugal Film Project 2024 - 35mm album on Flickr you can visit using the link below. I hope you enjoy them.

Frugal Film Project 2024 - July - 120 medium format

 I left it late in July for this month's roll of Ilford HP5+ 400 in Baldy the Baldax and got out for a walk on a gloriously sunny afternoon in the final week of the month. I had to go into town and decided to take a slow walk back home along the Leeds - Liverpool Canal to see what I could find. I took my Gossen Trisix light meter, but to be honest I didn't really need it. It was so bright I was using the fastest shutter speed of 1/300th of a second and alternating between f/16 and f/22. There wasn't much more I could do about it, Baldy the Baldax was pretty much maxed out.

I took a long shot looking along the canal to Wigan Pier and Trencherfield Mill before making my way under Seven Stars Bridge and onwards towards home. I was hoping to see a canal barge on my walk, but the canal was only being used by Ducks, Geese and people walking and cycling. I got a couple of shots of a Crane, the mechanical thing not the bird, on the other side of the canal and continued enjoying my walk in the sunshine.

Canada Geese get everywhere! I saw two small gaggles of them and didn't get hissed at. The first gaggle must be so used to people they don't even bother doing their finest "Hissing Cobra Chicken" routine anymore. The second gaggle slipped onto the canal and took a swim before I got near them. I got a couple of shots of the first lot and a shot of a compass carved into a paving slab on the path. I checked it with the compass on my phone and it does indeed point North. I wonder how many times people have walked over it without even noticing it's there?

The Brick Community Stadium, home of Wigan Warriors Rugby League Club and Wigan Athletic Football Club is always worth a photo, even when the sun is high overhead and it's mostly back lit. It's been the home of both clubs for 25 years and is a decent stadium with a great atmosphere, especially when there's a big crowd in attendance. I took the shot and walked on towards home.

I was really enjoying my walk home and I came across a boat which looks like a Canal maintenance tug and took a photo. When I got to the last canal lock at Woodhouse Lane, I had two shots left. Sadly there were no more boats on this stretch of the canal from Wigan Pier to the bottom of Beech Hill, but I wasn't too disappointed. I enjoyed the fresh air and soaked up vitamin D from the bright sunshine. I finished my roll of film, turned off the canal path and made my way up the hill towards home.

I developed my roll of Ilford HP5+ 400 the next day in HC110, 1+31 dilution B, for 5 minutes at 20 celcius and soon had it hanging to dry in my bathroom. I digitised it with my Nikon D700, Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f/2.5 macro lens, Valoi medium format film holder, Pixl-Latr and A5 size led light pad. I processed the RAW files with Affinity Photo 2.

Baldy had a few light leaks again this month. I have got used to it and will sort it eventually, but it's such a nice camera I don't want to take it apart and break it. I know there's good photos waiting to come from this camera and I shall keep tweaking it until the end of the year. Here's a few of my favourites from my July roll of Ilford HP5 that I shot with Baldy the Baldax for the Frugal Film Project 2024. I have placed them and more in my Frugal Film Project 2024 - 120 medium format album on Flickr you can visit using the link below. I hope you enjoy them.

Wollaton Hall Deer Park

 Last week I spoke about our recent trip to Nottingham to visit a dear friend and spent an afternoon in Wollaton Hall & Deer Park, a stately home on the outskirts of the city that is open to the public and is home to a sizeable herd of Deer. Long time readers will know I have seen a Deer near my home just once and I didn't get a photo as I was just as startled as the Deer. I figured I needed to go to where I could photograph some Deer minding their own business.

I had travelled light and had just one roll of Wonderpan loaded in my Minolta Dynax 4, however I had also decided to give my Nokia phone camera a try in case my film skills deserted me. It happens to the best of us and I haven't really paid much attention to my phone camera over the years. This was an opportunity to change that.

The humble phone camera has come a long way since the heady days of the early years of the 21st century when you were lucky to have a couple of mega pixels of resolution to produce photos you could just about print at 6x4 and so noisy you might as well have shot film. Oh the irony.

Now they are the point and shoot we all have in our pocket and they killed the point and shoot camera market stone cold dead. Most videos produced by tik tokers and a sizeable number of you tubers are shot with phone cameras to a decently high standard. My Nokia G42 phone has a good mix of manual and automated controls and I used it on this day as a point and shoot. I used the buit in level guide to help me get my photos straight and let my phone camera do the rest.

We split our afternoon between the Deer and the Hall and to be honest we should have gone in the morning and made a day of it. There's so much to see inside the hall that it's hard to take it all in over one or two hours in the afternoon. Entrance to the park and the hall is free, but there are gift shops where you can buy souvenirs and and make donations to help support the upkeep of this jewel in Nottingham's storied history.

Wollaton Hall was originally built in the 1580's for Sir Francis Whilloughby and over the centuries has been home to Barons, Businessmen and Batman. The hall was used as the location of Wayne Manor in the Christopher Nolan film, Batman - The Dark Knight Rises. It's also 5 miles north of Gotham, the town that lent its name to Gotham City in the Batman canon. The local council bought Wollaton hall in 1925 and it has been open to the public ever since. You can find out more about Wollaton Hall by clicking the link below.

I used my phone camera for some shots of the Deer and all my shots of the Hall, both inside and out. It's filled with artefacts, stuffed animals and a wonderful exhibit of microscopic sculptures done by Dr Willard Wigan MBE. Many of the sculptures are inside the eye of a sewing needle and took weeks of dilligent work to complete. It was making my eyes hurt just trying to comprehend the skills it took to do them.

We stayed in the hall until closing time and we gave a big thank you to the staff who looked after us during our visit. My wife isn't as nimble as she once was and uses a walking aid that doubles as a seat when we are out and about. The Staff made sure we got in and out of the building using the disabled persons lift and were on hand if anyone wanted to ask them questions about the hall and the exhibits. Next time we visit we will be spending a day there.

Here are a few of my favourite phone cam photos I took during our visit. My Nokia G42 phone camera proved to be a very handy point and shoot on the day and I was happy to let it do the heavy lifting. It didn't do too bad to be fair. As always I have placed them and more in an album on my Flickr account you can visit and you can also plan your visit to Wollaton Hall using the links below. I hope you enjoy them.

Wollaton Hall and Deer Park on WonderPan 400

 My wife and I had the sad duty to attend the funeral of a dear friend in Nottingham at the beginning of July and we planned on staying for a day or two to have a look around and give our friend Kay some company in her time of grief. I travelled light and took one camera, my Minolta Dynax 4 with 28-80mm kit lens, and one roll of film, Wonderpan 400 from Analogue Wonderland, just on the off chance I got to see something worth pointing a camera at.

The day after saying farewell to our friend Jeff, who passed away after a few years of deteriorating health, we decided to go out for a walk with his wife, Kay, to help her start this new stage of her life as best we could. Kay suggested we visit Wollaton Hall Gardens and Deer Park, a huge country park and stately home on the outskirts of Nottingham that is open to the public. We reckoned it would be nice to get some fresh air, so I picked up my camera and off we went.

I have seen Deer up close only a couple of times in my life and just once in over 20 years near my home. To be able to see some reasonably close was an offer I couldn't pass up. I was also regretting tavelling light. I instantly knew my 70-210mm beercan lens was the bare minimum I should have had, yet I only had the one lens, my 28-80 kit lens. I had to play this smartly and try not to get myself in a pickle.

If this was in the Highlands of Scotland, I wouldn't have got this close to the Deer. They are truly wild up there and you don't argue with a big Deer. However, the Deer at Wollaton Hall have become accustomed to the presence of the humans who visit them and there are plenty of signs giving advice on keeping yourself and the Deer safe. I took care to keep a safe distance and really wished I had taken my 70-210mm zoom.

I gently approached the first group I came across, a few Bucks with this years Antlers still covered with velvet. I took my time, stayed around 50 metres away and remained quiet and calm in the hope the Deer would see I was no threat to them, I was just another human with a camera. This seemed to work and I hoped my automatic, autofocus camera would not spook them with it's noisy motors. I took my first shot.

They didn't even bat an eyelid.

This made me feel a little more confident and I took a few photos before moving on to the group of Does in the next field. May to July is calving season and I kept my distance as I knew they would move away at the first sign of trouble. One small group moved, but a larger group stayed and didn't mind me taking my last few photos before I left them in peace to continue their foraging. 24 shots don't last long when you're enjoying some quality time with nature.

It's a priviledge to be able to photograph Deer in their own habitat. The fact the herd at Wollaton Hall are used to humans helped me a lot and encouraged me to want to return with longer lenses and maybe even my DSLR. I took quite a few photos with my phone camera, but it's a far cry from my Nikon D610. That one's coming with me next time along with my Tamron 70-300mm, AF Nikkor 24-120mm, my Nikon F801s and a spare lens to try to cover all the bases.

When I returned home, I developed my film in Kodak HC110 dilution B, 1+31, for 17 minutes at 20 celcius and soon had it hanging to dry in my bathroom. I digitised my film with my Nikon D700 and Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f/2.5 macro lens, Valoi 35mm film holder, Pixl-Latr and A5 size led light pad. I processed the RAW files with Affinity Photo 2.

I really enjoyed my encounter with the Deer at Wollaton Hall and you can too as it is open all year round. Just remember to take heed of the signs giving advice on how you can watch the Deer in a safe manner and share some quality time in their environment. You can find more information by visiting the Wollaton Hall website using the link below. Here's a few of my favourite film photos of the Deer and I have placed them and more in an album on Flickr you can visit using the link below. I hope you enjoy them.

Woodland Photography with Harman Phoenix 200

 For my third roll of Harman Phoenix 200 I decided to change cameras and location to really test the dynamic range of the film in challenging conditions. Woodland photography. I loaded my roll of Harrman Phoenix 200 into my Minolta Hi-matic 7 rangefinder camera, set the camera to full auto, the film speed at 200 iso and went for a walk in my local woodland on a bright sunny day in May.

There's a patch of Bluebells that I'm not sure a lot of people visit, despite it being next to a footpath. It's not particularly densely populated with Bluebells, but it always puts on a show. I headed straight for at as it was the middle of Bluebell season and I didn't want to miss it, especially with the conditions being dry and bright sunshine was pushing columns of light through the canopy.

I knew I was taking a risk with using my Minolta Hi-Matic 7. It has a fixed 45mm f/1.8 lens that is perfect for street photography. However, I really should have used a different camera with a longer focal length to get closer to the flowers than I managed on this occasion. It wasn't a complete bust, I got some nice photos and got as close as I could to the Bluebells without falling over. I'm not good with my balance these days and struggled a bit, but I'm also a stubborn old bugger and got on with it as best as I could.

Once I was happy with my Bluebell photos, I headed to another part of the woodland to visit the old dead tree that local youngsters congregate next to for a few drinks and a laugh around a small camp fire. It's out of the way, does no harm to anyone and it keeps them out of mischief. They keep the area reasonably clean too.

The dead tree is still slowly collapsing, but the tiny sapling I first saw a couple of years ago is still alive. It is growing between the roots of the dead tree and making use of what light comes through the canopy above. It reminds me that the great cycle of life continues to find a way to keep going. The little sapling may not have grown much over the last couple of years, but it is growing. I was having so  much fun I soon finished my roll of film and headed home.

I sent my roll of Harman Phoenix 200 to Analogue Wonderland for developing along with my Sakura roll of Harman Phoenix and a roll of ColorPlus. When my film returned I scanned it with my Nikon D700, Tamron Adaptall 2 90mm f/2.5 macro lens, Valoi 35mm film holder, Pixl-Latr and A5 size led light pad. I processed my RAW files with Affinity Photo 2.

I am rather impressed with how well Harman Phoenix 200 film responds to DSLR Scanning. My Nikon D700 has a legendary colour profile and dynamic range that is well suited to scanning negatives. Inverting the negative in Affinity Photo 2 gave me decent photos with just a few small adjustments needed to bring my vision to life.

I am also impressed with how Harman Phoenix 200 handled the high contrast between light and shade on a bright sunny day in the woods. The pools of light were bright without being blown out and the shadow areas were still full of detail. I took my time processing my roll of Harman Phoenix as I am still learning how to get the best from this film using my home scanning set up. Harman still have a way to go before we can say Harman Phoenix 200 is even approaching perfect, but they have made a great start. I have another roll to shoot in the coming weeks.

Here's a few favourites from my walk in the woodland to shoot Harman Phoenix 200 in my Minolta Hi-Matic 7 35mm rangefinder camera. As always I have placed them and more in an album on Flickr you can visit using the link below. I hope you enjoy them.
