All My Own Work from 1970!

Sorting out this afternoon, discovered this B/W print from 1970 so decided to scan it and share with the Flicktr community.

 

At University in 1970, took a photographic course in 35mm film photography. This is from my very first roll of film that I shot, processed and printed myself!

 

I had a Russian Zenith camera and thought of myself as a budding wunderkind! I had cut the 35mm film from a long roll. Learnt how to load it into the camera and then went out with one of the instructors to lean a bit about taking good photos, not just holiday snaps!

 

A group of us went into Lancaster and I shot this at the rear of the Lancaster Prison offices. Then back to the dark room to learn how to develop and print! This was from my very first roll I ever took that I had done completely on my own!

 

Even then I liked patterns in my shots and unfortunately this is the only one that I can find at present. Maybe I will discover more ancient work!
