Bridlington Old Town

Earlier in the year, to celebrate our anniversary, we spent a long weekend in Bridlington. We've never really spent longer than a few hours in Bridlington before so it was nice to explore it properly and enjoy getting to know somewhere new to us. 

One of my favourite parts was the Bridlington old town area, with its quaint - but sadly empty - streets and lovely church. We also stopped for a burger in one of the pubs which was yummy!

an old friend and lovely light

First, I guess I should explain that the old friend I'm referring to is the camera rather than any of the subject matter in the photos - that's the lovely light. But for some reason I was drawn to take my yashica samurai with me on a trip to York last month and oh gosh, I'm so glad that I did.

According to this blog I haven't used this camera since 2014?! I'm pretty sure that was when I got massively distracted by my LC-A before I then moved onto my Canon EOS 750 ha. I'm amazed I got so distracted that I didn't pick it up once or twice though because so many of my favourite photos have been taken with my yashica samurai and as these photos show, it really does well in gorgeous light! 

Do you go through camera phases too? Which camera should you really pick up again? I'm really tempted to pick up one of my other cameras again now - but which one to use next!

p.s. Film photography has really come along internet wise - the first time I googled this camera ever (2010ish), it was barely talked about but now there are loads of people talking about it and sharing photos, how exciting! I love it when a camera I like is also enjoyed by others. 

Kiplin Hall

Whilst on our little Richmond weekend away in April, we drove (!) out to Kiplin Hall... and what a lovely little hall it was - jam packed with fascinating history, lovely little details to photograph and nice walks around the grounds too!

I love visiting places like this - they're a feast for the eyes as well as the brain.

Single frame: Bradford

My fellow film photography blogger friend Jim has a really great series called Single Frame on his blog where he shares one of his photos and talks a little about it.

I don't really have much to say about this other than we walked around most of Bradford#'s Little Germany area just to find these... and that it was totally worth it!!
