so consistently inconsistent!

Hey there loves! If theres one thing you can rely on, its that I’ll be inconsistent with blogging but I am back - for a while at least. I had a nice break though - for one, I finished my masters, with a distrinction! Woop woop. And two, I enjoyed the summer and tried to relax as much as possible.

I have been waiting to post though and I’ve been waiting because I had to get films developed. Double woop woop! Funny how I spend ages researching a digital camera and finally buying one, to then take a film camera out with me too. I’ll be sharing a mixture of film and digital photos here for a while though and its going to be so fun!

These photos were taken about two years ago on trips to the beach - one visit to Great Yarmouth and one to Skegness - the funny thing is that I actually couldn’t tell you which photo is of which place - they really are very similar. So this post is a little celebration of the British seaside resort.

Although I think its safe to say that the last photo is Great Yarmouth haha, it is ‘great’ there.

These were taken with a new Kodak Ektar H35 half frame camera which I thought would be perfect to carry around with a digital camera - and it was. I can’t decide how I feel about the fuzzy camera focus on some of these photos though - its meant to look like that I imagine but I moved away from the toy camera look a while ago and I haven’t really missed it that much. What do you guys think? Perhaps I’ll dig out my Yashica half frame camera again.

Film: Agfa Vista 200 (with its tell tale green shift ha!)
Locations: Great Yarmouth and Skegness, two classic British seaside locations!

York Railway Museum

I’ve had these photos sat for a while now as we visited not too long after my Grandad died. My Grandad loved trains and his particular favourite was the Mallard which sits pride of place in the museum.

Its been over 7 years since my Grandad died now - which offends me so much - and I still get those punches in the stomach of devastating loss regularly. More so when we do activities I know he just would have loved doing with my nephews and definitely when both boys get so excited about trains. I know they’re little and kids love trains, but I like the idea that interests like that can be in the blood sometimes.

London Town

We recently spent a few days in London and I was reminded of the last time I was there with my lovely blog friend Dawn and some of the last film photos I took with her there.

I actually can’t remember when this was now - but meeting Dawn was just the best thing ever!
