I was getting bored with all this modern digital perfection so when I saw a plastic Holga camera I thought it would make a good change of approach and make me take some pictures that would look different. Most of these were using a tripod but not all if you want that genuine ‘shaky hands’ look.

Film is Fuji Pro 400H developed by Harrisons in Sheffield and scanned using an Epson flatbed scanner. No amendments in Photoshop to keep those distinct colours.

I have been working my way through the images for the page header blocks and now have one for each page header.

After wasting a lot of time trying to do the portfolio section manually I have now built them using a plug-in called RapidAlbum. The results look good and are simple to set up and publish. Even better they can be maintained easily and the whole thing doesn’t have to be rebuilt if I add a new photograph.

I’ve decided to do this site so that I have somewhere to show my photographs for anyone who would like to see them. So far I am using the Modernity theme in Rapidweaver to knock around the layout until I see something I’m happy with. Most of the other elements are built using other plug-ins for Rapidweaver. Some bits were even tweaked by hand.
