Guernsey 2025: French Market

Whilst recovering from an elbow operation, I got sucked into watching a bunch of photographers on Youtube. All of whom shot Analogue. I bought myself a Pentax 17 - a brand new half-frame camera and I'd take it with me to Phyisotherapy, walking into Town and taking the bud home after. Shot between September and October, this is the first roll from the Pentax, and my first 35mm roll since 1999!

Traveling through Stellenbosch when driving to Cape Town. We stopped for lunch at this vineyard and winery. Whilst my travel companions sampled the wares, I went for a little wander. I don't know if I was really allowed to poke my nose in the places I did, but it was fascinating to see all the machinery used to produce the wines.

A walk up the hill to Vale Castle from Bordeaux and looking out across the industrial north. Fujifilm recently released a camera that has an aspect ratio dial, which mirrors all the panoramic analogue cameras from their history. I've always had a bit of a fascination with ultrawide in PC gaming, so I thought why not try to replicate this with my own camera. Framing without gridlines for the 2:1 and 17:6 ratios is more challenging than usual but I'm happy with how these came out. I can't see myself using this style for street and documentary, but for the limited landscapes that I take, I can see this becoming a go-to.

The production floor at Glass of Malta runs on skill and heat - craftsmen working glass straight from the furnace, shaping, cutting, and finishing each piece by hand.

A world away from the vineyards, safaris and huge shopping malls in Cape Town Wharf, Langa is a township where the Apartheid government sought to control Black South Africans, yet the people forged a tight-knit community that resisted and persevered. Today it’s a vibrant place that educates visitors on its history and suffering through the heritage museum, and welcomes you to explore the Arts & Culture Centre, as well as walking streets full of play, small businesses, and food stalls serving the community.
