Old Medium Format Film Camera - Hasselblad 501CM
Film - Fujifilm Velvia 50
Photograph taken January 2021
Taken just outside Salisbury, Wiltshire, England, I took this shot just after the snow had fallen and not long after sunrise. Snow is not that common in the South of England, so a joy when we get it.
I photograph this oak quite often as it’s on the walk to Bentley Wood, a forest not that far from our house. The tree sits in Dean Farm and in the background Bentley Wood is just visible. I love this tree as it seems so lonely all on its own in the field, a field that changes colour with every season.
It was taken on an old Hasselblad 501CM and on Medium Format Film. I used a slide film, Fujifilm Velvia 50, a notoriously difficult film to expose correctly. Luckily, I do have an exposure meter and underexposed it slightly to add to the overall feeling of the scene. You will never get the dynamic range of modern-day digital cameras, but I love the contrast between the tree and snow as it gives a very dramatic effect.
