Expired ILFORD HP5 Plus Film : Sunday Morning in Arnold

Another shot with a 35mm black and white film that expired in 2008.

Another shot with a 35mm black and white film .

The detail of which are as follows:

Film: ILFORD HP5 Plus , ISO 400 (expired August 2008)
Camera : Olympus OM20
Lens : Olympus Zuiko 50mm f1.8
Film Developed by: riverandcoast.co.uk

Negative Processing : Placed on my £20 lightpad and photographed with my Sony A6000 camera and Industar N61 53mm (with an extension tube to make it a macro lens). Image then post processed in GIMP, converting negative to positive.

The image is lovely and sharp but wow look at that film grain from the expired film !

The image was shot on a Sunday Morning earlier this year. There's some contre jour light and the lampposts still have Christmas decorations on them.

Grainy and full of character.
I am loving your film shots! Very nice. Has Peter noticed?

Is the image current or also from 2008? It has an otherworldly look to it.

@allie912 the image is from January 2021 allison, the chemicals in the film must have started deteriorating . our library is in the shot. My wife tells me Arnold used to have a beautiful old library, but is was demolished and replaced with a rather mundade 1970's building

Lovely shot and scene. I guess that Claire is driving the car towards your position. I love the antique feel of the image.

Looks like a 1970’s newspaper article other than the car which should be a Ford Cortina.

I'm not sure I can see your daughter Claire! Is she in the car? It certainly looks very 70's with the grainy texture

Judith , Dione it is a random car , the bit about Claire was an error in my copy and paste from the previous shot . I have removed the incorrect text 📷
