Landscape format. The shadow of an elderly couple falling on the side of a bright red beach hut at Herne Bay, Kent. The couple appear to be arm in arm and perhaps a little stooped, the beach hut is a mix of paneling, railing, posts and shadow. Taken using Scotch 1000 slide film, known for its grain and odd colours, using an Olympus OM2SP with 35-70mm lens. 'Digitized' with a Nikon D7000 and JJC adaptor. Taken on 8 February 1989, 36 years ago: I am now elderly myself...

Taken autumn 1989 at Torquay's Princess Gardens. Landscape format; an evening view of a fountain with seafront lights behind. The fountain water sprays are lit in red and the long exposure shows them as blurred lines shooting into the air then falling back down sharply. Rows of coloured lights in the background, along the sea front, show as vague star shapes. The background is black, making the lights stand out. Taken on FujiChrome RDP100 35mm slide film, using an Olympus OM2SP. 'Digitized' using a Nikon D7000 with JJC adaptor, giving a RAW file edited in Photoshop.

A boy followed by a man walking on rocks at Daddyhole, Torquay, with the sea behind them. Landscape format; the figures are roughly central and dominate the picture; they are in near silhouette as is the rock they are walking on. The sea, behind them, is lit by direct sunlight and is composed my many circles or 'doughnuts' caused by the lens in use, a 500mm 'catadioptric' or mirror lens, made by Tamron. Strong out of focus highlights are shown as rings due to the lens' construction. The rings are uniform in size but of differing brightness and overlap. Taken using an Olympus OM2SP camera with Kodak Ektachrome EPR100 slide film, self processed in E6 chemicals. I'm not sure what device I used to scan the slide but probably an Epson scanner.

Taken in 1988. Landscape format: the Old Course at St Andrews, the most famous gold course in the world...lower half of the photo shows the Swilken Burn, from the bottom right of the image, moving diagonally across and leading to the stone built Swilken Bridge and behind that the golf course leading to the Old Course Hotel and above that a blue sky with a light sliver of cloud across it. I knew the bridge as "Swilken" when growing up - there are other spellings. I'm older than the hotel and remember it being considered an eyesore when new: no idea how it's regarded now !

A swimmer sitting on a bench on a swimming pontoon, at Plymouth Sound. His back is to the camera. The pontoon is in the centre of the image, the swimmer sitting on the far end. The image is taken against the light and the sea is bright, with the pontoon shown as a stark shape against the slightly choppy water. The image is shades of blue with whie highlights. Taken on 24 July 1988 with an Olympus OM2SP, probably a Vivitar Series 1 70-210mm lens, Kodak Ektachrome EN100 slide film, self processed in E6 chemicals. 'Digitized' using a Nikon D7000 and JJC adaptor.

Taken autumn 1990. A lone figure, shot from behind, on the riverside walk by the River Tay, near Broughty Ferry. Landscape format; the figure is to the right of the image, in near silhouette, wearing a suit, hands in trouser pockets. Walking along a concrete path that crosses the frame diagonally, roughlt from bottom left to 1/3 up the right side. The the figure's left is river, blue, with out of focus highlights. The highlights are shown as small, white rings or 'doughnuts', a characteristic of the Tamron lens used to take the photo: a 500mm 'catadioptric' or mirror lens, light and compact, its design caused the highlights to take on this ship - you either like or don't like it ! Camera was an Olympus OM2SP, film was Fuji Velvia - then quite new.

A cottage just outside Crail, one of the East Neuk villages on the coast of Fife, Scotland. Landscape format: the photo shows a single cottage surrounded by a simple fence, on an area of flat land just above the shore. The cottage is simple with chimneys at either end and whitewashed; behind it, a field of cattle and to its right a shed and a ruin, perhaps another cottage. In the foreground, a bank of gorse on the ascending hillside. Taken with an Olympus OM2SP on Kodak Technical Pan, developed in Technidol. Scanned using a Canon MG8150, TIFF file edited in Photoshop.

Taken in summer/autumn 1989. Landscape format: two figures in silhouette at Plymouth Hoe, with several other silhouetted figures in the background, ghostly due to limited focus depth of the lens. The figures are brownish yellow, as are their shadows. The frame is largely yellow, dark in the lower part of the frame, brightening as you move up the frame. Shot was an Olympus OM2SP camera and Tamrom 500mm "mirror" lens; when shooting against the light, as here, it was perfectly possible to hand hold the lens which was light and compact. It came with a set of filters, one of which was yellow (presumably for B&W photography) and which I may have fitted here, but I don't remember. The slide was "Digitised" 2 years ago using a Nikon D7000 and JJC adaptor set.

Taken in summer 1989, a candid photo of an anonymous woman at Plymouth's Sutton Harbour. Similar to a b&w version posted yesterday. Landscape format: a woman sitting on a folding chair looking toward Sutton Habour; she has a shopping trolley to her right. The boats and buildings of the harbour are out of focus ahead of her. She may be painting or drawing. Taken on an Olympus OM2SP with 35-70mm lens, using Ektachrome EPP100 slide film, self developed in standard E6 chemical. "Digitized" using a JJC adaptor set.

Taken in summer 1989 at Plymouth, Devon. A landscape format photo, from behind, of an anonymous woman sitting on a folding chair with a shopping trolley to her right, perhaps painting or drawing: she is facing Sutton Harbour with its low buildings ahead of her and beyond those the city of Plymouth. Black and white, taken on Kodak Panatomic X developed in D-76. Shot on an Olympus OM2SP with 35-70mm lens. Negative scanned using a Canon MG8150 and edited in Photoshop.

A landscape view of Whitsand Bay, Cornwall. The lower part of the image shows a rocky outcrop angling down from the left to the sea, which is heavy, with white breakers. Two figures are part way down the outcrop, nearing the water. Behind them, a wider expanse of sea, with an almost hidden view of the bay as it curves away to the west: the view as a whole is misty and filled with sea-spray, the light poor. It is almost monochrome, with a blue cast, probably caused by the film in use. Whitsand Bay is a stunning part of Cornwall, not easily accessible other than by car (then...I don't know the situation now !). Taken using an Olympus OM2SP and Agfa CT100 slide film, 'digitised' using a Nikon D7000 and JJC ES-2 slide holder (recommended !).
