Demo season is upon us.

From My Lens February 13, 2022

Popped into town this past weekend for a photowalk and decompress from a hectic start to the year. It was also an opprtune time to get into the mood for a chill February 2022 half term with the kids.

Stumbled across two small demo’s, one being an anti vaccination and freedom demo at the Peace Monument at Hove Beach, and the second rather low-key Boycott Puma (sports brand) outside Sports Direct in Brighton, as part of an Israeli Apartheid demo.

Firstly, apologies to the lady at the peace monument in Hove, who corrected me, when I said it was an anti vaxxers demo. It was more than that as a diverse section of society were voicing their views. NHS staff, Granny's, Mums.

These are the first 8 photos.

The last 2 photos were a 'Boycott Puma' demo outside Sports Direct, which was part of an Israeli Apartheid demo.

Both were sedate in nature, but a voice nonetheless. Its also great that demo season is upon is, as Brighton has a active population across all generations, eager to voice their peaceful and democratic right to demonstatrate.

Until next time, keep snapping.

This was supposed to be the start of a new project, that I have had to defer. It's gone a little mental at work and also the house renovation

Developed a couple of rolls of #Kodakgold200 with @takeiteasylab

Turned out great, bearing in mind they expired 18mths ago.

The 2nd is slightly out of focus, muscle memory using the excellent #fujicags645s is a little rusty.

Saturday people. 

Not had much luck with the film camera collection, moving house, dinks and dents aplenty.

A little good news, was a hack I discovered for the faulty winder on my #Minoltax500. I love this camera, especially the 28mm #ro
Another frame from the recent #ilfordxp2 that I put through the #yashicamat124g. 

I love this film.  Have 8 x rolls incoming today, ready for the weekend.

Decided to dust down the #yashicamat124g #TLR today. I normally get my film off the web, so paying £11.50 for a roll of #ilfordxp2 was a tad steep.

Love this film as I do the 124g.
Headed up to the dunes of Camber Beach at the weekend, as I'm thinking of starting a new photo project.

Another shot from the visit to Dungeness last weekend. 

Not entirely sure what the allure of this place is.  I just love it.
