Not made #HalfFrameStories prints in a while but this is one of my favourites from late last year.
The wonderful Pentax 17 and some HP5 I think .

We wandered around the side streets of Hoi An with the Pentax 17 and made some #HalfFrameStories in the darkroom
#believeinfilm #filmphotography
After months of concentrating on RA4 darkroom work it feels good to be again thinking in shades of grey. Started with some more #HalfFrameStories from the mighty Pentax17
#believeinfilm #filmphotography
Looking forward to getting back into making more #HalfFrameStories in the Fenland darkroom.

Last Spring I was walking 3-4 miles most days with my Pentax 17 , canβt walk much past half a mile currently but I enjoyed watching the crops grow and the changing weather - part of my hundreds of prints that make up #HalfFrameStories
#believeinfilm #filmphotography
A few more favourites from #HalfFrameStories 2025 - loads more to print .

The #Pentax17 #HalfFrameStories βin colourβ - observations from Spain continue in the Fenland Darkroom.
Next stage of the colour #SlowPhotography process is to ponder the frames for some more #HalfFrameStories - good job Iβve got a good stash of paper.

Shame I canβt add music on this platform but hey maybe one day.
More #HalfFrameStories from the #Prntax17 and some Kodak Ektar 100
Itβs all very calming this #SlowPhotography lark.

Lots of colour negs from the last year from the Pentax 17 - can be daunting but Iβll follow the same #slowphotography procedure that I use for mono. Make contact sheets, mark up candidates for printing etc - no hurry, this isnβt meant to be a chore β¦.

#TravelsWithMyRolleicord will sit alongside #HalfFrameStories and keep me busy in the darkroom β¦..
βTravelsβ can be interpreted quite broadly , in this case I travelled over the road to photograph a bench that Iβve been watching slowly decay and get over run with foliage.

#SlowPhotography begins with stepping out of the house and seeing the beauty in the ordinary, wondering what things look like photographed, once the film is developed a contact sheet is made which is pondered over, with coffee, before heading into the darkroom again.

The latest batch of Pentax 17 #HalfFrameStories laid out for marking up.

Itβs a shame we canβt add music to videos but heyβ¦β¦
The next few chapters of #HalfFrameStories are contact sheets and ready for evaluation and printingβ¦β¦All with the awesome Pentax 17.
#believeinfilm #filmphotography
This Pentax 17 has me recording #HalfFrameStories all the time - some peppered thin steaks about to go on the bbq and a pint of Old Speckled Hen in an inappropriate glassβ¦..
I used the iPhone for these shots β¦.
If you were wondering
The half frame prints will take a while

Just made an IG reel of the last year of #HalfFrameStories
Only had a brief time in the Fenland Darkroom yesterday but managed a couple of #HalfFrameStories prints from my wandering with the awesome Pentax 17 - Catlabs 320 film this time.

Hoping to get into the Fenland Darkroom later this afternoon to continue the #HalfFrameStories journey

Man how I love the smell of selenium toner in the morningβ¦β¦
#HalfFrameStories #Believeinfilm #Filmphotography
#HalfFrameStories begin with seeing and having the #Pentax17 to hand.
There is a bit of a mini story developing of peering through shop windows.
A few minutes with the contact sheet helps focus the mind.

On my morning walks in the spring time I had my Pentax 17 with me each day.
#HalfFrameStories #believeinfilm #filmphotography
If you ever find yourself in Milton Keynes do pay a visit to MK Central shopping area, I was suprised how busy and vibrant it is and an excellent place for photography when the sun shines.
Of course I had my Pentax 17 with me and had #HalfFrameStories prints on my mind.
#believeinfilm
I enjoy the journey - with the Pentax 17 - in the darkroom then a print to add to #HalfFrameStories
#Believeinfilm #Filmphotography
Iβd stood in this spot for several mornings in a row before I saw the carved face in the tree.
The next day I had better light and the Pentax 17 was loaded with some HP5 - I continue my #HalfFrameStories
#Believeinfilm #Filmphotography #makeprints
In a little under a year Iβve generated all these #HalfFrameStories darkroom prints and I cannot keep procrastinating much longer and will have to bite the bullet for scanning and zine making.
#believeinfilm #filmphotography
#HalfFrameStories !!!! Shame you canβt edit a post
Another roll of #HalfFrameStories completeβ¦

Little glimpse of todayβs #HalfFrameStories hanging in the darkroom.

I think this was in the food area of the market in old Hoi An - just as we were getting ready to leave we discovered a smaller but equally interesting market just round the corner from our homestayβ¦
