This is South Parade Pier again taken with my lovely original 1960’s Diana lomo toy camera. The blur was a mushroom shot in my garden which I tried to double expose in one frame .. hey ho...!!

Dont worry I only got about 5 decent shots out of 16 frame roll. So not many more to go. I always feel drawn to this pier when I want to play with something new, I will try and be a little more adventurous with the next roll

So with all of these I used Fuji pro 400x and processed in C41 chemicals for the real cross processed effect. It was just so exciting receiving this film back

Thanks as always Wink

Diana

Oh yeah - a real winner. The effect you get by cross-processing adds hugely to the wonderfully 'pinhole' characteristics of the lomo.

An inspirational set - would look great as a triptych too Grin

Yes Bruce thanks very much I was just thinking they look pretty cool in a row. I tried to remove the lens today to do some pinhole work but couldnt get it off, I think you can only do this on the Diana clones.

I think I prefer this one to yesterdays. Really good effect and quite unusual! I look forward to the others!

Amazing shot and fantastic portfolio.
This (and your other images) are so atmospheric. Got a real Victorian feel to them, the pier's a good choice.

Cheers

Thanks Tony, I can always run the outakes, they are really green

thanks DebnIan maybe the 1960's camera adds that mood and feel to the pier
