  • Polaroids from Barcelona

    Personally these are some of my favourite polaroids I have ever taken. The colours developed with very cool tones, but it still captured the colourful and beautiful essence of Barcelona. The view from Casa Battlo’s rooftop terrace La Sagrada Familia The dragon from Paerc Guell Casa Battlo   And with these my mini series of…

  • Burgos on Expired Polaroid Film

    I wanted to take my DSLR out on a tour of the city, but today has been quite cloudy so I thought it would be best to leave my digital camera for blue skies, and take out my beloved Polaroid camera which is better suited for overcast conditions. As per usual the film I was…

  • Men in the Media Who are Awesome Feminists

    There are a lot of discussions when it comes to men and feminism. Can men be feminists? (Erm, yes, ofc). Are they not intimidated by the word feminism? Why not use the term gender equality? (Personally I think it’s daft to get so hung up by the name, feminism = gender equality, simple as that).…

  • Playing with Otis

    And by playing I mean dangling a treat so he would actually get into the shot. I swear he knew I wanted to take a photo of him so he deliberately ignored my calls.

  • Road Trip Films to Watch

    So, I’ve done post about wanderlust novels and a post about wanderlust songs, so now I fancy writing a post about wanderlust films. Or road trip films to be more specific. I’m keen to get a few road trips under my belt: perhaps the full Route 66, maybe around countries such as France or Italy, or even to…

  • The Five Rise Locks, Bingley, Yorkshire

    I nearly dropped my camera into the canal and the result being I somehow managed to scratch up this Polaroid snap. Which is annoying, but I like the lightning effect it created, plus the scratches and the expired nature of the film makes it look even more vintage. The five rise locks of the Liverpool-Leeds…

  • St Paul’s Cathedral – Expired Polaroid Film

    Despite the smudges this could be one of my favourite polaroids I have ever taken…

  • Brighton Pier – Expired Polaroid Film

    I went to Brighton with my dad last week as a birthday day trip. I had never been before, and on a sunny day it was great to soak up the atmosphere that possesses the vibrant edginess of London, but combined with the relaxing feeling of being by the sea.

  • “All work and no play makes Jack a dull boy”

    Graffiti street art in Curitiba, Brazil Although for kicks I entered it into google translate which turned it into “all work and no play makes Jack a goofball”. Which frankly, has less of the dramatic effect I think Kubrick was aiming for.

  • The Novo Cemetery – expired Polaroid film

    Some universities boast a stunning lake, a church, or a library used as Dumbledore’s office. At Queen Mary, University of London, we have a cemetery. It is actually interesting: it is a Grade II listed Jewish cemetery, and the east end of London is famous for its rich Jewish cultural heritage as well as its hipsters…
