The New River


This was taken the same morning as the River Lea shots. The New River is a canal built in the 17th century to take drinking water to London, which it still does. Having seen some of the things that float down the river, it's a wonder anybody survives there.

Still it's a peaceful spot. I live in one of the houses to the left of the river; I'm right at the end.

The River Lea

So here is my first batch of images. These are photos of the River Lea at Broxbourne taken on a sunny Saturday afternoon and shot with Kodak Tri X which expired many years ago.

I hope they do this blog justice.

Aloha Broxbourne!

Pleased to say that the Vivitar arrived safe and sound in Broxbourne (in England) yesterday. Already shot a couple of rolls though it so will upload these shortly....hopefully the shots will be in focus and won't have my finger blocking the lens!

Traveling Toy Camera in Valencia, Spain. ( Part I )


The brilliant Spanish sunshine is not always good to take pictures, but finally I've succeeded.
My proposal for this project is divided into three parts: people, places and shapes.
I have lot of fun with this project and now I just hope you enjoy my contribution.
