Some of you may have read the earlier post about my personal project ideas for the following year. Owing to financial problems last year and not much better this year; I had to sell a lot of high end digital gear on here and on flea bay. As a result I ended up shooting a lot of stuff on 35mm and my Q.

When I was going through blurb books for my projects I thought to myself "surely the Q is of good enough quality to be used in a book?"

Has anyone tried printing big with the wee Q>?

As some have mentioned before the blown out highlights can be a bit of a peev but that is its charm in many respects.


Below is a photo that I took this morning on way for a doc appointment - I think it might be my "project camera" for 2017

Am I mad!?!?

Having told the seller I wanted to see images from the camera before pulling the trigger it would have been nice if they had complied.

I guess you snooze and you lose etc but still disappointing

Yes David street photography is at the heart of what I enjoy the most. I am trying had to marry backgrounds and buildings with my subjects but its hard to ask someone you have never met to walk with you down alleyways and graffiti-esque places

I would never dream of entering derelict buidlings - i am doing so from only the outside

Cheers

excellent ideas lads

thanks for the input. I love the urban shots and the model mayhem idea is one that has been brewing to be honest for some time

Sports? There are opportunities David but I dont want to hang around football all day - not my kinda thing. As for allotments there arent any around here that I know of.

Yes I agree Stuey regeneration projects are slowly but surely doing away with these places of interest to me. I dont know if they do the same thing over in england scotland or wales but over here in NI they put really awful garish posters over windows and doors depicting shops with interiors inside. Fecking horrible and cost thousands of pounds

Hey stuey

Yea Im considering the same sort of thing. Ive taken a few images already in my home town - buildings that have went derelict and how nature and graffiti has taken over. I dislike HDR urban decay photos - im leaning towards mostly film with a bit of Q thrown in.

I would love something with people but its trying to think of something different

If you want to bounce ideas about the urban decay thing go ahead mate
