I Shoot Film : Super Whippy

I Shoot Film : Kodak Portra 400 , Olympus OM20, Zuiko 50mm f1.8

I took my film camera to the Toughsheet Community Stadium to watch my team Bolton Wanderers play host to Derby County at the start of the month. It was a hot and sunny day, which is rather unusual for Bolton as we've not had many hot and sunny Saturday afternoons in the last few seasons.

The Wanderers won 2-1, making my return journey back home to Nottingham a pleasant drive in the early evening sun.

There was a "Super Whippy" Ice Cream Van on one of the approach roads to the stadium.

Food vendors are not allowed to trade from the stadium perimeter, so this van was parked just outside the stadium grounds.

I couldn't get a side view shot as my 50mm lens wasn't wide enough to step back due to a metal fence.

Wonderful capture bringing back found memories for me. Do you get these put on DVDs or flash drives to upload them or scan them?

[Phil Howcroft]

@marlboromaam Mags , the lab scans them and then puts them in the 'cloud' for me to download . I get the negs and prints in the post

[Mags]

@phil_howcroft Okay! I wonder how it worked for you. I know you can get them on flash drive or dvd here.

A delightful vintage flair on this picture, especially with the color. A fun shot of this ice cream truck.

[Allison Williams]

Love the name Super Whippy. I wonder what we have that is comparable.

Brilliant vintage feel to the colour

Ah, the ice cream van. Always feels like a blast from the past.

[Dione Giorgio]

A very attractive looking van. And a fabulous capture of it. Well done to Bolton. Time to get back to the Premier League.

[Peter Dulis]

yum

[John Falconer]

It’s great when your team wins. And you can get an ice cream. And … take a photo!!

[Pat Knowles]

Our favourite ice cream. Can’t beat a soft scoop!

[Judith Johnson]

At least it tells the story - or part of it - of your happy day.

I don’t know the last time I took a roll of film. I have a couple in a drawer but never printed them.
