Save the date! May 30th, Northampton, UK
Analog selfies
Helllllo! We’re opening up studio MALARKEY for portrait sessions. Come on down on Fri May 30th and have your free portrait taken. If you have ever wanted the luxury of having your photograph taken using analog technology but then having to wait days to see the results, then this event is for you.
“But why would I want get involved in that”, I hear you cry.
I will be using some very old tech, a large format Kodak camera from the 1950’s.
You get push the shutter! Yes, I have a super long (pneumatic) cable release and to give sitters some autonomy, they get to trigger the camera.
You’ll get a copy of the photograph emailed to you.
The negative is massive. Like really big, 5x7 inches in fact.
There will be lots of interesting and creative people present who you can talk to.
It will be a lot of fun.
There’ll be refreshments.
Put it in the diary, would love to see you there.

A Picture in the Making: Beep! Beep! Beep! I flay about a bit, until my brain works out what is the meaning of the ruckus — my 4.50am alarm clock, a photograph in the making. ... #Photography, #LargeFormat: https://aye.tf/2025/05/07/pictureinthemaking
Alex Burke wrote about his trip shooting 4x5 in New Zealand. Amazing photos, as always.

Starting on 14 April is the next Folder Week, a Challenge that's new to me but is a great idea to get out some of the many folding cameras that I seem to be accumulating. The plan is to use the KW Patent Etui from the 1920s with the 118 roll film back, but worst case, the 1940s Agfa Karat could be a worthy substitute.

As octodon has gone, I miss some of my old posts, so there'll be a little repetition here.
But I spotted this banger again today.
