Diana Mini

On Wednesday I developed my first roll of film from my cute little Diana Mini. As I had it on half frame setting, it took me a while to take 72 photos. Particularly when the people you’re with do a flying out of the way movie style dodge when they catch a glimpse of it coming out of your bag.

Here is a cliché photograph of the cathedral here in Lincoln. I had gone 2 and a half years without taking one!

Bonfire Night

Firework

I don’t just work all the time, although it’s rare that I can say that! On Thursday it was nice to go round to a bonfire night some friends had at their house.

Little Fire

Andy mastered the art of fire…

Sparkler

We all realised that sparklers don’t seem to have the same appeal when you’re older. When you’ve lit one, the excitement is kind of over as the rest of them are pretty much the same…wish I didn’t buy three packets…

People

I haven’t mastered taking pictures in the dark yet, I prefer the daytime, so it was nice practise attempting to capture people…

Big Fire

The fire was still going strong…

Toasting Marshmallows

So marshmallow toasting ensued…

And someone got carried away holding it in the fire.

Lula Issue Nine

Lula

Damaged Spine

I bought a copy of Lula about two weeks ago and I was so excited to get it in the post, however as you can see, the postman/woman busted the spine whilst trying to get it through the postbox which sucks.

They appear to have a habit of doing this to our post. My friend managed to purchase a book that is no longer being published, so are quite hard to find/expensive and the spine got damaged on that too. Boooo.

Anyway, it’s absolutely beautiful. If you’re interested, you can find scans at The Fashion Spot.
