Bath Carnival 2018

This weekend saw the return of the annual Bath Carnival. And I was excited to be asked by the organisers to be one of the official photographers. The carnival is always great fun and brings the whole of the city centre together in a mass of noise and colour.

With the weather being gorgeous at the moment, Sydney Gardens was heaving for the day long party and the streets were full of smiling people watching the procession. It's a fantastic atmosphere.

Usually for events that I'm photographing for myself I'll have a mix of colour and monochrome shots. But working to a brief this year, I knew that I'd be doing them all in colour. I'd planned on some shots for my personal use being in monochrome but then decided against it when editing. The day was so colourful I decided for a change to just go with that carnival atmosphere.

I love the challenge of events like this. I find it quite an adrenaline rush being in the thick of it, trying to create good shots and capturing the essence of what is going on.

To make life more interesting for myself, I was shooting a lot of it with my 135mm manual telephoto lens; so not only was I trying to shoot stuff quickly but I was also not having the safety net of auto focus. However, this only added to the enjoyment! If I wasn't shooting with that then I was going to the other extreme - using a wide angle lens to get in really close to the action; you definitely feel a part of what's going on when you've got a thunderous drumming band getting pretty close to your face (note to self - definitely need a nice wide angle prime!)

The Carnival is non profit and does workshops with many groups to bring the whole thing together. You can donate to keep it running at their Localgiving page.

Here are a few choice shots. There are quite a few more over on Flickr.

Geeky stuff!
I used my Olympus OMD EM10ii with these lenses...
Olympus Zuiko 135mm f3.5.
Olympus M.Zuiko 14-42 f35-5.6ii.
Panasonic Lumix 25mm f1.7.
 

Helios 44-2

The latest addition to my lenses is something I've wanted for a while - a Helios 44-2 f2.

It is thought to be one of the most mass produced lenses ever, which is what makes them relatively easy to find... and also cheap! Manufacturing began in 1958 in various factories - the one I have is a 1973 model made by KMZ. Like many Russian lenses, it is a copy of something more expensive, in this case the Zeiss Biotar.

It is a 58mm lens, which makes it 116mm on my Micro Four Thirds Olympus. So, longer than I'd usually use but I'm finding I'm adapting quite well to various focal lengths of the different vintage lenses I'm playing with at the moment.

One of the most well known attributes of this lens is the swirly bokeh. Shot wide open and with a favourable background at the right distance, it has a very unique look. It's pin sharp in the centre and then the swirls get more drastic the further out you go.  I've seen portrait shots with a background of foliage work very well with this. You can see the swirls starting to appear in the shot of the Coke can below.

Having said all that, with a different kind of background the bokeh has no swirls and is ultra creamy!

There were several variations of the Helios made. The 44-2 supposedly makes more swirliness than some of the later models. But it also has a pre-set aperture ring, which is something I've not used before. Basically, there are two aperture rings - the first one has clicked stops on it as usual and you can set that at what you want your smallest f stop to be. So, if you want a range of f2 - f5.6, you set the aperture ring to f5.6. The second aperture ring is then clickless and will allow you to do whatever you want between f2 and f5.6. I thought it would be a bit odd to use but after a while I just forgot about it; although there were some times when I noticed the aperture wasn't where I thought it would be... more practice is needed!

It is also very good for focussing with. Some manual lenses are a bit tricky to get it nailed precisely. But this is very quick in bringing into focus. And it focusses very close too - I can almost shoot macro!

I bought the Helios from Wycameras in Leeds who I highly recommend and was delivered just in time for me to have a week away in Cornwall. So I'll be having a really good chance to put it through its paces.

A big new addition to my lenses...

A couple of months ago I bought myself a 135mm Zuiko lens (see previous post). And since then I've been using it quite a bit - particularly on my OM10, although I need to scan the images from those once I buy a new scanner (more on that in future posts).

However, I knew that for a telephoto I'd still need even longer for the occasional use at race circuits. So I started looking at 200mm lenses - mainly Zuiko, and also some Vivitars. I wanted as fast as possible which is f3.5 or f4. And after casually watching things on eBay and looking at various secondhand sites, I discovered a 200mm f3.5 Mitsuki lens.

Mitsuki? Never heard of them. But it was £15. And nobody else on eBay seemed interested in it. So I did a bit of research. And it appears that it was a rather obscure lens from the late 1970s which was made using the (at that time) state of the art computer system at Tokina. So really... it was made by Tokina. And even more interesting (if you're a geek like me) is that it came out of the Tokina factory at the same time Tokina were making lenses for Vivitar. Which is a good thing!

So, I got it for £15. And I've taken it out and about a bit.
And here are some tests I did with it.
 

I think it was quite a bargain. Wide open it does have some fringing - on high contrast areas there was a bit of purple but I soon managed to clean it up. And in the last photo you can see a bit of green fringing. But stopping down sorts it out too.

Quite heavy though!
And long. Very long. Even longer with the retractable hood out.
To be honest, it's so long it looks a bit silly on my Olympus.

But hey.... it was only £15 and should work nicely for shots of Fernando Alonso heading in to Stowe corner in August!

Using a telephoto lens

Telephoto lenses. Not something I usually use.
However, I have recently acquired an old Olympus Zuiko 135mm f3.5 lens - which makes it a 270mm lens on my Olympus EM10ii, due to it being a Micro Four Thirds camera.

How did I come to buy a focal length of lens which I wouldn't usually touch?

Well, a good friend of mine has asked me to be the photographer at her wedding. And straight away my first thought was lenses. Handily, my brother (https://www.worsfold.photos/) has just started shooting on a Sony and offered me his MFT kit to use, including the 17mm f1.7 and 45mm f1.8. Both great lenses which will add to my kit and should cover me.

I then got thinking about lenses with a bit more length to capture people mingling without shoving a camera too closely in their faces. I have my long zoom which I usually only get out for when I head to Silverstone (see earlier post from the Bath Carnival). But it's not the fastest of lenses and it spends most of the time sitting around doing nothing. I'll probably use it for the wedding though, just because it gives me options and I can autofocus with it to capture important things quickly.

I then started thinking about lenses for my visits to motorsport venues and whether I really need a zoom? I very rarely use zooms, preferring to use my feet. And I do get a bit annoyed with cheaper zooms and their variable aperture. If I'm fully wide with a lens at f4, I want to be able to zoom and it stays at f4. And unless I'm willing to pay vast amounts of cash for something I rarely use then I've got to put up with that. Or have I?

I looked at the exif info from various races I've been to and could see that I only really use a couple of different focal lengths with a zoom. At last year's World Endurance Championship race at Silverstone I was pretty much at 200mm most of the time, with a few shots in the 130-150mm focal length. So I got to thinking, why don't I just carry a couple of prime lenses of those focal lengths? They're going to be faster than the zoom. And I reckon the quality will be a bit better. I don't need autofocus - the cars are too fast for it to keep up.

So I went shopping. And after doing some research, the first prime telephoto I have got is the Zuiko. It's a good lens - very small for something of this focal length. It's lightweight and very quick to focus with. It also has a nifty lens hood built in.

I took it out for a wander around town on my lunch break and although it gets some nice shots, I'm finding it a bit odd for my normal kind of photography. I'm used to seeing something and pretty much knowing what I get in shot because of the focal lengths I use. With this, I'm much closer to the subject; so the photo I see in my head I'm not getting and I have to step back a bit.

It also feels a bit odd taking photos of strangers with it. Whereas usually I'm up fairly close, now I'm further away. Which feels a bit sneaky to me. It doesn't feel like I'm involved as much and gives a distance which I'm not 100% comfortable. I'm not sure if that is obvious from the photos or whether I'm reading too much into it.

I think it deserves a bit more experimenting with though. I quite like the idea of being able to get other foreground elements in to frame a subject. So maybe I just need to rethink how I work with it.

Zorki 4

As an addition to the Jupiter 8 lens I bought last month, I thought it only right that I also had a nice rangefinder which it would have originally been paired with.

So I got myself a Zorki 4.

The Zorki 4 came out of the Krasnogorsk factory near Moscow and was the first Zorki to be sold in large quantities to the west, which is probably why there are quite a few examples around. And which also keeps the used price low!

Built between 1956 and 1973, my model is from 1960. I could have got one for the same price from '58, but they upgraded them slightly in '60 and added some extra shutter speeds in. The Zorki 4 was basically an update of the Zorki 3, which itself was a copy of the Leica III. And it's a very nice thing. Feels like a decent solid camera to have in your hand.

I'd not used a rangefinder before. So the focussing took a bit of getting used to. And the photos I got back show that I need more practice! But the shutter is lovely and quiet - I can see why so many street photographers in the past liked these. I've also been a bit wrong footed with the focussing distance of the Jupiter 8. Unlike a lot of modern lenses which allow me to focus up relatively closely, the closest I can get with this is 1m, so I'm having to rethink some shots. Added to which, there is also the parallax of looking through the rangefinder/viewfinder window to what is actually captured on film.

I loaded the Zorki up with a roll of Foma 200 film as I had a few kicking around. I think as a film it works quite nicely with this vintage of camera and lens. Although not my best shots ever, there's a certain way this camera, lens and film combination is capturing the light which I really like (the shot of the bottles above being a good example... if you'll forgive the slightly dodgy focus!). It reminds me of the look some European cinema was getting in the 1940s/50s; in particular Luchino Visconti. It's grainy with a real nice three dimensional feel to the shadows.

It looks old. it isn't about the precision, but capturing the tonality beautifully.
I've loaded it up with some more Foma 200, so with a bit more practice I'm hoping to start capturing some really nice images with the Zorki.

It would also have been rude not to have bought yet another of my favourite straps for the Zorki. So I went shopping at www.1901fotografi.co.uk. Check out their straps. They're lovely.

Fomapan 200

Recently I've been playing with some Fomapan 200 film in my OM10. I've previously tried Foma 100 before in 120 format and read some good reports about the 200 speed variety, so thought it might be good to try out as it's a pretty cheap film.

As with pretty much all my photography on film nowadays, I tend to rate the film so I overexpose. Having read that Foma 200 had a couple of stops of latitude, I rated it as 100. And I'm liking what I'm getting (although some reports say rating it at 160 is even better).

It's got a nice bit of grain to it, which is something I quite like in black and white film. And it has what I'd consider quite an old look; slightly vintage. It doesn't have the precision that some newer films have, it sort of has the feel of street photography or documentary photography from the 1950s/60s, of which I'm a bit of a fan.

Tonally, it was really nice to play with afterwards. I could get some nice deep blacks whilst keeping a nice range of greys up to white to give the kind of contrast I like. I think I'm a bit of a fan of this lovely Czech film!

Jupiter 8

Bloody hell, it's been a long time since I've posted anything in my journal. I blame it on life getting incredibly hectic with the arrival of my Mini-me, Robyn in December.

Anyhooo.... I've been interested in various old lenses for quite a while and what effect they would have on my photography. And this seemed like the perfect time to try some out. Trying to save a bit of cash at the moment because of the aforementioned little 'un, I can't really go splashing out on some of the lenses I'd like. So I got myself a nice old Jupiter 8.

For those that don't know, the Jupiter 8 was one of the standard lenses that came with the Russian Zorki rangefinder cameras. During World War Two, the Zeiss factory in Jena were making their Sonnar lenses in a Leica thread mount. These Zeiss lenses were excellent. And when the Russians invaded Germany, they took over the factory. They took the designs and made various copies of the lenses in the Krasnagorsk (KMZ) factory to go with the Zorki cameras (which were themselves Leica copies).

The Jupiter 8 is a 50mm f2 lens. And it's rather nice. Mine is from (I think) 1968. A chrome one, rather than a black one (the chrome ones are supposedly better, the black ones from 1970 onwards became a bit inconsistent with quality apparently).

The aperture ring has no stops, which takes some getting used to.

The focus ring is quite fast and loose which means you have to be very precise (this might just be my model, of course). On my Olympus EM10ii it becomes the equivalent of a 100mm lens which is longer than I'd usually use.

But overall it's quite fun to have on the camera. And it's making me think a bit. And it gives a slightly different look, I think. A bit 'older'.

Now to try it with a Zorki and a roll of film....

Adventures in a disused underground station

I seem to have been a bit tardy recently with posts. But I couldn't resist posting this one....

A while back I noticed Olympus were running a workshop in the disused Aldwych underground station (look up the history - it's very interesting). I've always been fascinated by the ghost stations on the underground network, so this seemed like an opportunity not to be missed! Additionally, I would get to work with models. Which is not something I've done as a photographer; and any new experience can only be a good thing.

There were about 40 of us for the session. We were split into two groups over two locations - the station platform and the ground level area, with the groups swapping locations half way through the afternoon.

The setup on the platform was a kind of post-apocalypse world. Not really my kind of photography. But it was something out of my comfort zone which is good! Our photographer for this session was Gavin Hoey, who had set up two flashes along the platform - both controlled by a wireless trigger on the hotshoe of the camera. This was extremely alien to me!

We had three setups in total with Kerry on the platform and in the train itself.

Although not my usual kind of photography, I did quite like what I got out of this. I played around with it quite a lot to get a particular look - very contrasty with a lot of the colour sucked out. And it was interesting to see just how the flash affected the shot.

After an hour or so down on the platform, we made our way back up the 140 steps for the next location.

This was a 40s inspired setup with photographer Marcus Clackson and model Beth. No flash was used for this, just more straightforward lights. There were once again three setups - in the old lift, on the steps in the concourse, and by the old telephone booths.

This felt more natural to me rather than firing flashes off remotely. But it was still hard work and very focussed! Because of the amount of photographers, we were limited with the amount of time in both locations; sometimes only having 30 seconds to get the shots we wanted. At first that was a bit daunting, but I had a similar experience years ago when life drawing at art school, so havig an intense focus is actually pretty damn good!

Whilst processing these, I thought it best to go in a completely different direction to the platform shots. So the lift shots I went for an Edward Hopper feel; strong colours but lots of dark shadows. The rest of them I went for black and white, but with a touch of split tone to give it a slight sepia edge. The monochrome shots I also really ramped up the contrast to go a bit more film noir.

All in all, it was an excellent day. I mainly used my 19mm Sigma, with some shots on my old 50mm Zuiko and a few on the 14-42 kit lens. The whole set of photos (including detail shots around the tube) can be seen here flic.kr/s/aHsmap3nef

Some Black and White film tests

So, I'm off on my holibobs to a lovely area of France tomorrow. And recently I've been feeling a bit stagnant in my usual off-the-cuff style of photography. I've also been wanting to use my film cameras a bit more - my Yashica 635 TLR and Olympus OM10 SLR.

To slow things down a bit and make myself consider my composition more, I've decided to use slow speed films, which in some cases means using a tripod. I'm not fussed about getting people in shot - what I have in mind is more landscape based, but also probably urban landscapes.

I've used some slower speed film recently in the OM10 (see my earlier post about the Rollei Retro 80S). This time I've tried out Ilford Delta 100 and Ilford Pan F+ 50asa. Both 120 film shot in the Yashica.

I tried to vary the shots as much as possible. Some were handheld at 1/500, others as long as 22 seconds at night; unsurprisingly on a tripod. But what I did try to do with all of the shots was to slow down, take the scene in more and properly compose within the frame. It was a nice change and something which I'm looking forward to doing more. And I'm hoping it will also slow down my street photography more so that I can become more precise with that too.

As for the films, I'm not sure that I have a preference between the two just yet. Just from using one roll each, I think the Pan F+ is probably better for working with after. It seems to have more detail in overexposed areas which I could pull back.

I'm now getting my films processed at a great place in Hereford called Exposure Film Lab. Definitely worth checking them out.

Deserted villages and ruined castles

Surprisingly (considering the crap weather recently), the Bank Holiday weekend has been gorgeous and sunny! Which is handy as I had lots of things planned to do outdoors.

First up was a trip to Imber Village in Wiltshire; a place I've been wanting to visit for ages but haven't for one reason or another. Imber is slap bang in the middle of Salisbury Plain and was evacuated in 1943 so American troops had somewhere to train in the build up to D-Day. The villagers were never allowed back and Imber has been a military training zone ever since, with some of the original buildings still standing and some newer buildings made soley for training purposes.

The Ministry of Defence allow access 2-3 times a year. Despite its isolation, the village was very busy when I visited. It's an eerie place but the presence of so many people dented this somewhat. Maybe I should go back in the winter rather than a nice sunny day (not sure how I managed to get no people in shot at all!).

I grabbed my EM10ii for the trip with three lenses, although I mostly used my kit zoom of 14-42mm. Apart from the Church of St. Giles, all the buildings were out of bounds (due to the odd bit of unexploded ordnance here and there) so I was often having to zoom in a bit or shove my camera through bushes.

After the adventures in Imber on the Saturday, it was off to Farleigh Hungerford castle on the Monday. And once again, I had my 14-42 zoom on the front of my EM10ii, which is great for getting those nice wide angle shots of towers with plenty of sky.

I've driven past the remains of the castle a couple of times but never knew what a rich history it has. And I'm a sucker for a good castle.

Manual lens fun

I've used manual lenses on and off for a while. It's quite nice knowing that you have no choice but to focus in the 'proper' way rather than just relying on autofocus. Besides which,  when shooting on film I don't have much choice with an Olympus OM10!

Yesterday, I decided to go all manual with my digital whilst spending the day playing boules in the sunshine. I knew some shots I'd want to get would be from a bit of distance, so mounting a Zuiko 50mm f1.8 to my EM10ii would probably work quite well - basically making it a fast 100mm lens on the MFT body.

I found I was working with it surprisingly quickly by the end of the day - even wide open my focussing was pretty good. And rather than just trying to instantly catch a moment like I usually might with an auto focus lens, I was tending to watch out for something developing whilst I focussed, so it slowed me down a little but gave me a bit more time to compose the shot.

I've been toying with the idea of getting a 25mm lens for my MFT for a while (for a classic nifty fifty). But now thinking about maybe going for a nice old Zuiko 24mm or 28mm manual which can work on both my OM10 and EM10ii.

Oh, and as always: we were crap at boules.

Rediscovering shots

I know a lot of photographers like to sit on their shots for a while to let them stew a bit. And I can see why - often I'll go back to shots that I eagerly showed people straight away because I thought they were the best things I'd ever done. Only to find that maybe they're not quite as good as I thought.

It's something I should try and do more.

Particularly as I was going through some old pictures which I shot on my Yashica 635 today and suddenly stumbled upon the shot below. Which I was pleasantly surprised by. I didn't give it a second look at the time but for some reason it pounced straight out at me today.

I think it's the sparseness of it and the simple shape that the trees and reflections make cutting through the shot. And the lack of colour apart from the green on one bank and the browns of the other bank.

I'm going to be using the Yashica for some landscape work over the next couple of months in Cornwall and France. This kind of sparseness is what I have in mind, so I'm glad I rediscovered this.

Bath Carnival

This year's Bath Carnival was on Saturday the 17th July. The procession wound through the streets of Bath for over two hours, and this year was joined by Bath Pride.

My wife works for the charity Action on Hearing Loss and they were taking part as they did last year with their day care clients. So I volunteered to capture the day.

It can be quite full on, scampering around the streets trying to capture everything going on. But great fun too. I thought I'd shake it up a bit this year with my photography by using my usual short zoom and also a long zoom - something which I generally only get out when I'm lurking around at a motorsport event.

Using a long zoom made me work differently which I quite liked. Rather than having to shove my camera up into faces (which I still did from time to time), I found I could pick out faces and use the crowds to frame people and add depth.

The full set can be seen over on my Flickr page https://flic.kr/s/aHskZyx7RU

Rollei Retro 80S

I don't shoot on film quite as much as I used to. But I still like to have a camera or two loaded up with film ready to go if I fancy it. I'm also pretty bad at getting the film developed so what comes back can sometimes be a pleasant surprise.

For colour film, I've pretty much settled on Kodak Portra 400 nowadays.
But for B&W, I've ben experimenting recently. I used to shoot Ilford Delta 3200 but in the past year I've been trying out Kentmere, Fomapan, and now some Rollei Retro 80S.

It's a much slower speed film than I'd usually use. And I'd stupidly loaded my Oly OM10 up with it in the middle of winter, which lessened the conditions I could shoot in. But with some sunnier days I thought I'd crack on and take some test shots with it.

And I have to say: I really quite like it.
I rated it at 50ASA on the camera and the scanned images came back quite light. But quickly pulling the blacks back down in Lightroom gave it a nice contrast range. Although the final image (below) was straight out of the camera - no tweaking there at all.

I need to go shopping for some more film. Thinking some more of this and testing out the 400ASA version is needed.

Live stuff

I haven't done any live gig photography for a while. So when my mate Buddy asked me to help him out documenting a showcase gig for the Bath Studio School BTEC end of year show, I was happy to oblige!

Not knowing anything about any of the bands beforehand, I was definitely jumping into the dark. I've only used my Olympus for gig photos once before whilst I was still learning its quirks. But this one was going to be a bit more full on - the gig was in Bath's Moles club which tends to be a bit dark (not that I'd have it any other way). And I didn't have time to experiment during several songs for a band as some were only on stage for five minutes. So I was chopping and changing lenses like a loon. But I'm always up for a bit of pressure!

I used four lenses throughout the night:
Olympus 14-42mm f3.5-5.6
Sigma 19mm f2.8
Panasonic 40-200mm f4-5.6
Olympus 50mm f1.8

Because of the dim light, I was manual focussing most of the time. And it was really keeping me on my toes! My Oly 50mm (an old manual lens from an OM10) was a godsend in those conditions. But I loved seeing how far I could push all my kit. I had to whack the ISO up a bit which made things a bit grainy; but I quite like that. It gives it a bit of a 90s indie feel.

It was a fun night; I learnt a lot in the space of a couple of hours about how my camera works with different lenses whilst trying to capture a lot of movement in low light.

And it was also great to see kids of a variety of ages getting up on a stage and playing decent live music. I just hope I've made images to do justice to the effort they were putting in!

Thanks to Bath's Music Workshop for asking me along.

Confrontations

So, an odd thing happened yesterday as I was out shooting. And this hasn't happened to me before, although I have heard about others experiencing it.

For the first time, someone I took a photo of was confrontational towards me.

Now, I know that not everyone wants their photo taken when they're out and about.  I've never had anyone say that they'd rather I didn't take their photo; and to be honest, if someone did have a major issue then I'd happily delete it. (Well, I say 'happily' - if it was the shot of the year then I'd be reluctant!)

The guy yelled at me in no uncertain terms that he wasn't happy, and demanded to know why I took his photo. And even warned that "I know your face", although I'd hazard a guess that he probably wouldn't notice me next time I pass him.

I didn't interact and just kept walking. Safe in the knowledge that I was quite a way up some steps for him to catch me up.

However, one thing did occur to me afterwards. And that is one of how I choose my ethics.

I have seen this guy around before and he's usually murmuring to himself in a slightly drunken way. Now, I personally draw a line at taking photos of certain things: homeless people sleeping rough in doorways is one. It's a cheap shot, it's not making any statement, and I think it's actually quite offensive for me to be shoving a camera that costs several hundred quid into a starving person's face without their say so. I'm also not comfortable with taking shots of someone who is noticeably mentally ill - once again, it's not big or clever.

But what of this guy? Is he just a bit of a slurry drunk? Or maybe he has a mental illness that I don't know about? And further to that, what of any other quirky, eccentric characters I might take a photo of on the streets? I don't personally know these people, so how do I know?

I think my approach needs to be the same as it has always been. To take the shot and then worry about it later. If I'm looking at it after the moment has taken place and I decide that actually, maybe the shot is a bit patronising to someone... then I need to let it go. There is a slight humour in much of my photography, but there should be a line drawn at poking fun.

Sergio Larrain

Sergio Larrain is a photographer who I've only discovered relatively recently.

He was born in Chile in 1931 and came to Europe in the 1950s at which point he was spotted by Henri Cartier-Bresson who invited him to become a Magnum photographer. He was only really active professionally for about 10 years before giving it all up.

It has been said about his work that there is a great poetry within, which I'd agree with. But there is also something very unique which I'm drawn to, even though I'm still not quite sure what it is.

I find there is a sense of stillness in a lot of his work.

Whereas a lot of 'street' photography ( a term I always use loosely) tends to capture a faster, busier pace within an urban setting, Larrain's work seems to capture the calmer corners of life. It feels like he's actually stopped to take in his surroundings.

It's almost like watching a film in slow motion.
