In The Riverside Park 4/4 :
Nikon F5 / SIGMA APO 70-200mm F2.8 EX DG HSM / CH /
December 4, 2018 / 1280px
I developed a found film, Jessop R21 ISO-200 film, format 120, black&white. I artificially coloured the picture with Palette, an on-line image-colouring tool. I like the result.....
Developer used was Diafine 3+3, 20C.
From the other negatives that came out I deduce that the film must be shot in the UK, somewhere around the years '90 of the past century. The interior here looks much older; it looks almost pre-WW2. But my guess is the picture shows a visit to grandparents who left the old interior untouched for years……
quite close to you.

This photo was taken with a vintage 72 year old camera, but the scene has changed little since the 1850s. Woolmers was founded by Thomas Archer I (1790-1850), and he was granted convict labour under the assignment system that lasted in Van Diemen's Land until the end of the 1840s. This allowed trusted convicts to work their way to freedom and receive a "Ticket of Leave", enabling them to become accepted citizens of the colony.
Because estate owners like the Archers had to feed, clothe and educate the convicts, the state was relieved of this cost, so the advantages were felt throughout the colony.
NOTE: The light blue spot on the lower left of the frame is a telltale sign of a problem with the cloth shutter curtains leading to the tiniest of light leaks. This is not surprising in a camera of this age, but I'll describe the problem in more detail later on.
