Blackwoods November 2024.
Too many scans, too little time but these are nice. Maybe a book one day.

Dev & Scan @capefilmsupply 🤝
I recently dusted off my Pentax 67 shot bit of a test roll. I had plans to shoot some B&W in the Eastern Cape and wanted to make sure everything was working.
A while ago I made some hand prints for Liam @y.leam and Nick @nxckfarmer who used them to set up a Portra profile for the Noritsu. They scanned these frames using that profile and they came out very close to what how I’d print them. So close that I printed a contact sheet to compare.
Big things happening here @capefilmsupply .
Good job boys 🤝
@i_make_books (❤️) made this portfolio box for me a few years ago. The idea was to show a publisher some hand prints with the hope of getting a little book made.
The meeting ended up not happening and I carried this bad boy around London for a couple of days (hence the stains etc.)
It’s a lovely, albeit quite heavy, object and has kept this set of prints safe over the years. I’d still like to make this book.
Dog Mom @danielle__hitchcock and Rustin on the 67.
@trespasserbooks published Mother of Dogs by Matthew Genitempo. It’s beautiful, refreshing and also sold out (so I don’t have a copy). Check it out online I guess.
I made this photograph not really knowing if it would work. A test on a farm where a man who helped raise me lived and died.
It may have been a Sunday.
I’m not sure why exactly, but this picture has remained an important part of the work.
@skinnerboox published the twist of a knee earlier this year. There are special editions with hand prints in the world somewhere.
It’s been a while.
Much has happened.
I woke up early.
Maybe I couldn’t sleep.
There’s something about this silence.
Home unexpectedly.
A camera that needed testing.
Half frame, expired velvia and the sky at Blackwoods.
Personal work on hold.
So it goes.
