So happy to have documented the photowalk event hosted by Lakeside Darkroom and The Photographers’ Gallery.
In a time that everything moves so fast, it felt wonderfully old-fashioned and romantic to take a slow walk with people we’d just met (and built a beautiful connection at the end). Each of us carrying our own analogue camera, wandering along Thamesmead, talking, pausing for the swaying willows, horses came across, and the light shimmering on the river.
There was no rush, no schedule, just time to see, feel, and create. Later, we returned to the darkroom to develop our films, step by step.
The whole process was so healing. I still remember when Stephen pulled his negatives out of the tank and said it was the first roll he’d shot with his grandfather’s camera — after forty years.
Thanks everyone who joined, and to
@lakeside_darkroom @thephotographersgallery @tpglab for bringing us together through film.
很開心能為Lakeside darkroom和the photographer’s gallery合辦的活動做影像記錄。
在什麼都很快速的時代裡，和第一次見面的人們來一場老派而浪漫的散步之約，每個人帶著自己的底片相機，沿著湖邊慢慢的走、一邊對話，一樣的場景，但是看事物的角度都不同，我們各自為了被風吹動的柳樹、向人靠近的小馬、或湖面閃動的波光而停下腳步，不被時間和行程追趕，結束再一起回到暗房沖洗底片，好好的經歷每一個步驟。
一切都值得等待，特別是當Stephen從沖洗罐抽出他的底片，他說這是他爺爺的相機，40年來的第一卷。
