Making Garlands
by Peter Elgar
Kentwell Hall in Suffolk England was finished mostly in 1540 and is now the home of Patrick Phillips bought in 1971 -- almost a ruin but restored and hosts many 're-enactments' the most famous of which are those of 'Tudor Times' .. I organised a trip for members of Brentwood Photographic Club-- we had bright sunshine which made portraits difficult because of their hats and the contrast. I took my 1996 Pentax MZ-5 for colour neg and my 1984 Mamiya C220 for B&W. I used 'fill-in flash' where i could outside. Lenses were mostly a 35-80mm f4-5.6 SMC Pentax-F and a 24m f2.8 Carl Zeiss Jena and 135mm f3.5 SMC Pentax-M all on 2006 outdated Konica VX200 film I rated at 125ASA and had processed by BOOTS Brentwood High Street and I scanned the prints except for just two

What a great image, the subtlety of the film colours is lovely, but it is the capture of the girl as she tends the flowers that makes this one for me.

Drobbia : When I go to the Philippines with my Filipina Wife we visit free the Cebu Images Camera Club on Cebu Island and they get me to Judge their competitions and a good friend takes me out with them on 'shoots ' in smelly markets! Whenever you go 'abroad' do some research where a local Club meets and they will greet you with open arms !
