Description

1 - 13 This is becoming a bit of a ritual stopping by this gatepost and photographing it. Ideally I would have preferred the gate to be open - so as to isolate the post, but it was closed. The many different camera angles show that I really wasn't too sure how best to photograph it. I think I prefer the first one I took.

14 - 17 3 photographs of lanes and ditches that run at right angles to Rayner Lane. I suppose they illustrate the landscape reasonably but they are not specifically recording anything. The best one is probably neg. no.17, the puddles on the track and the odd looking bush on the left enliven this shot.

Note

3.5F camera.

Agfapan 100 (80 ASA) Rodinal 1:60. 10 mins at 68°F.
