The Capa
Yes I am fully aware that it is a bit rich, blasphemous even, for me to compare myself to Robert Capa (read the link then you'll understand why), but having only seen crap contacts prints of this roll of film it was a wee bit of a revelation to scan it and see these results. My first response was to recall Capa's famous D- Day landing images - all grainy, blurry, contrasty and gorgeous. So these shots are my (accidental) vague homage to that man.

These are really beautiful Andy! Is this the adapted clack type thing again? Nice to see all of your experimentation continues....
Now that is interesting, and very nice. Like it a lot.
i'm glad yous guys like them too.
no camera adaptation here. just a cheap (well kinda pricey actually) shitty piece of camera. and some grossly over-developed film. and probably some dated film too.
i really do like grain, but it never been something i've played with much.
but there you go - small image, and gross over-developing and you get good grain.
