...and here we have a Ricoh AF-5

Right, firstly I need to STOP taking pictures of the same old f*cking things. I can't keep uploading the SAME photos from differnt cameras. All it becomes is a reference for whatever camera i'm using so people can judge for themselves the merit of that particular camera. I'm NOT doing anything creative, just the same old boring shots of where I work, where I live and the limited 'still' life on my balcony. So with that thought, i'm going to try and leave all that stuff alone and get out a bit more. I live 20 minutes from the heart of London (straight into the city by train) and I simply don't abuse it. Shame...anyway....the camera. This time Ive jused a Richoh AF-5. I used it once before using Polypan and the pix came out pretty nasty. I found the same problem with other cameras. Not a great film in my opinion. So ive given the benefit of the doubt and loaded it with fresh Ilford HP5. All the shots were fired off pretty quickly, I just wanted to know if it was really worth keeping so no care taken ;-) Once dev'd in Rodinal (1+25) and scanned, I must say they came out pretty much better than expected. Does anyone actually bother reading these descriptions ? I wonder ! #ricoh #ricohaf5 #ilford #ilfordhp5 #rodinal #godsownjunkyard #walthamstow #london #e17 #bnw #blacknwhite #blackandwhite #bw #blackandwhitephotography #photography #bnwphotography #art #monochrome #blackandwhitephoto #photooftheday #captures #blacknwhitephotography #portrait #streetphotography #black #bnwmood #photo #life #ig #street #monochromatic #greatshots #white #bnwphoto
