Spent quite a long time last night experimenting with a digital camera at the local blacksmith's yard. I think this is my favourite photo.

The first of a few photos I'd like to share for the #shittycamerachallenge I'm happy with the camera, I don't think it's bad and I feel like I'm cheating 🙂 Really pleased with the first image here. Camera: Lubitel 2 Film: Ilford XP2 Super #believeinfilm #filmphotography

A tractor is turning at the top of a hillside field. A liquid tank is mounted at the front of the tractor and an implement for planting young seedlings is mounted at the rear. One of the farm workers is walking behind the tractor. There are tyre marks on the ground and the branches of a tree overhang at the top of the image.

A farmer is moving a stillage with young plants with a telehandler up to where his colleagues are working. There are trees in the background.

'email' I forgot to type 'email' 😂 Looks like it's photos for the #shittycamerachallenge 😁 I'll get a proper look when I'm back home but the wee Lubitel 2 seems to be working.

An image showing 6 small square photographs, rather like contact prints.

Looking towards the setting sun across a field of grain, there are lupins, the branches of a tree and white blooms of some plants (sorry I don't know what species of plant).

The Microcord is working, mostly. I got 11 frames on this roll, the semi-auto winding-stop mechanism cut in early between 10 and 11 so I lost a frame. I've been running a scrap film through occasionally and its getting better. Camera: MPP Microcord Film: Ilford FP4+ #believeinfilm #filmphotography
