The Wheatfields 2017, Fuji Superia X-TRA 400

by Matthew Posted on July 14, 2017

This is the only roll I shot on the Mamiya C220 on our trip to the UK this year.

The wheatfields around Clanfield were looking spectacular. The blackberry blossoms were just starting to appear as well (I love the blackberry blossoms). The last 2 pitchas were taken on the last day of our holiday to Thailand in January.

I decided to upload the entire roll for fun and so I can use the “entire roll” tag again and add another post to that series.

The film expired in 2012. I really love Fuji Superia X-TRA 400 in 120. It seems to hold up very well when it’s expired. Such a shame it was discontinued. I recently found some on taobao – and bought quite a bit.

Wheatfields in Springtime

by Matthew Posted on July 7, 2012

I recently got hold of a nice Asahi Pentax MX. If you don’t know what that is, it’s a really dinky, mechanical SLR. It’s really fun to use and nice to handle. The build quality is excellent as it’s made of metal and it’s fully manual with no automatic features.

These are from the first roll I shot with it on some cheapo 200 film I bought in Boots.

I took these photos in early summer when the blackberries are blossoming the wheatfields are this lovely green colour.
