Newcastle Co.Down

Photographed with a Fujifilm X-T4 F=35mm, f/9 @ 1/125th sec on ISO400
Nighttime Dublin 2012
This shot was part of a commercial shoot, back in 2012, to illustrate lighting facilities on railway platforms. It was originally shot in colour, and with a much wider angle, but to satisfy my black and white obsession, and to focus more upon the people in the shot rather than the original commission, I desaturated it in Photoshop (actually in Camera Raw) and cropped the image to achieve a more people orientated image. Did it work?
Photographed with a Nikon F700, F=24mm, f/16 @ 1 second exposure, on ISO3200. The camera was on a tripod.
Holy Trinity, Portrush
Holy Trinity Church Of Ireland, Main Street, Portrush, Co.Antrim.

Old Film, Old Chemicals, Old Man – and all in Working Order!
We have recently moved house. In our last home the water was full of impurities, and film developing was impossible. Negatives were destroyed with multiple little white flecks. Eventually I just gave up.

CAUTION – Men At Work!
Men at Work.

Just for fun, here’s a few examples, made with the Fujifilm X-T4…
The Audi A3
Moving images! The Audi A3 on the move.
Photographed with the Fujifilm X-T4 mirrorless camera, F=55mm f/10 @ 1/30th sec on ISO200.
No. I wasn’t driving! The image was made from the passenger seat of Janette’s car.
The Friendly Swan.
This swan enjoys having a conversation with motorists. This lady was his second new friend while I was watching him and I suspect he may want to share her coffee.
I shot the swan using the Fujifilm X-T4 using the Acros film simulation.
Pickie Funpark, Bangor, Co.Down
On a lovely sunny June evening a walk along the sea path past Pickie Funpark at Bangor is a pleasant way to while away an hour or so. Here’s a few shots made on the Fujifilm X-T30, using the excellent Acros Film Simulation.
