The Rustic and the Wreck

One of the hardships of shooting property for a living is the fact that you have to travel to photograph the properties. Unfortunately for me I had to head up towards Kyle of Tongue (Mandy and I even managed to turn it in to an overnighter - benefits of freelance) where I found this magical combination of a rustic abandonment and wrecked boat - throw in a dark sky and light over my shoulder and voilà - enjoy

    1. Thanks very much Simon – tbh I was frustrated with the WB – I just couldn’t seem to nail it. This will make you smile though. I picked up a lovely example of a 500C at Ffordes in Beauly – I procured 5 BW and 5 colour rolls to test my manual skills so watch this space 🙂

      1. That’s great news Scott, I’m really pleased you’ve decided to get a 500C. Looking forward to seeing the photos you make with it. I had to replace the light seals on my film backs when I first got mine after light got in and wrecked the first roll of film I used. Some black insulation tape across the slot for the dark slide also helps stop light getting in. Apart from that, the camera has been a pleasure to use.

    1. It’s a cracking location and I am pleased with the result but like I said to Simon wasn’t happy with the whitebalance, gave up in the end.

    1. The dark sky added to the shot Susan but also placed the timer on me 🙂
      I GPS tagged the location so I will be back to try something different
