And then came colour…
This picture was taken of Dublin’s Henry Street Market with the Zenith camera when I was over on a working trip in 1971.
My eldest daughter in Stow on the Wold, taken with the Zenith in 1972.
My wife on holiday in Majorca taken with the Zenith sometime in the Eighties.
Alpha Tower reflected in newly opened ICC in 1991.
This is an old scanned slide of the mosaic below Snowhill Gardens. The shot was taken from a moving car. Unfortunately it was lost together with the gardens when the whole lot was bulldozed in the recent redevelopment.
Here’s one of buskers in Edgbaston Street taken with the Hitachi 8mp before I dumped it.
In The Beginning
Here is one of the first images I captured with the Zenith back in the Sixties. Like the camera itself, the sight of a tradesman, apprentice and office junior relaxing on a lunch break is now, sadly, a thing of the distant past.
I imagine this sort of thing still goes on though. 🙂
Still one of my favourite shots, this couple were spotted in Centenary Square and captured on Ilford HP400 film by my old Practica fitted with an 80 – 200 lens.
Another of my favourites taken with the Practica, this one is of the foot-bridge over Gt Charles Street. In it I imagined some connection between the female figure and those above her through the “END OF CHAT” graffiti.
A study of the development of the canal at Cambrian Wharf. This particular boat was being used as a rubbish skip.
City Centre Exercise taken with Practica in Nineties.
The 1994 St Patrick’s Day Parade (Practica).
Newhall Street 1992 (Practica)
Collecting Lunchtime Snack (an experiment with sepia): These office workers were snapped in Cherry Street with the Practica in the late Eighties.
