First pictures I took in black and white and first pictures I developed myself, circa 91. Iford 'Safety Film' (!) FP4. Camera was a strange secondhand Russian or German camera with an odd square aperture which had problems focusing (I think the lens was coming away!). Negs are in a terrible state I've done what I can but it's like snow if you zoom in...I rewashed them which made a massive difference but bad handling before I had a clue, storage and dusty/scratchy enlargers and I think underdeveloping and/or crap in the developer haven't helped.
You name it these negs have it: hairs, dust, odd watermarks, gunk on the negs that won't wash off, scratches, damaged emulsion, holes in the film (!) *sigh*
First pictures I took in black and white - and this was the first portrait I was proud of, and first pictures I developed myself, circa 91. Iford 'Safety Film' (!) FP4. Camera was a strange secondhand Russian or German camera with an odd square aperture which had problems focusing (I think the lens was coming away!).

The Sydney Opera House is a multi-venue performing arts centre at Sydney Harbour in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia. It is one of the 20th century's most famous and distinctive buildings.
Address: Bennelong Point, Sydney NSW 2000, Australia
Construction started: March 2, 1959
Founded: 1973
Architect: Jørn Utzon
Sydney Opera House sits on Bennelong Point. Bennelong Point was named after Woollarawarre Bennelong, a senior Eora man at the time of the arrival of British colonisers in Australia in 1788.
The original cost estimate to build Sydney Opera House was $7 million. The final cost was $102 million and it was largely paid for by a State Lottery.
233 designs were submitted for the Opera House international design competition held in 1956. Jørn Utzon from Denmark was announced the winner, receiving ₤5000 for his design.
Construction was expected to take four years. It took 14 years. Work commenced in 1959 and involved 10,000 construction workers.
Sydney Opera House was added to UNESCO's World Heritage List in 2007
There are more than 1 million roof tiles covering approximately 1.62 hectares sitting over the structure. They were made in Sweden.
Seven A380s could sit wing-to-wing on the site.
Sydney Opera House was opened by Queen Elizabeth II on 20th October, 1973. She has since visited four times, most recently in 2006.

Sydney, capital of New South Wales and one of Australia's largest cities, is best known for its harbourfront Sydney Opera House, with a distinctive sail-like design. Massive Darling Harbour and the smaller Circular Quay port are hubs of waterside life, with the arched Harbour Bridge and esteemed Royal Botanic Garden nearby. Sydney Tower’s outdoor platform, the Skywalk, offers 360-degree views of the city and suburbs.
Area: 4,775 mi²
Founded: January 26, 1788
Population: 5.23 million (2018)
It is odd, that two countries with so much shared history over the centuries, should be so different in the 21st century.
We speak different languages, ones is a Monarchy while the other is a proud Republic, we drive on different sides of the road, our grasp of each other's languages is basic to say the least, even those who live in sight of the other country. Towns and villages look different, as do main roads.
I asked the question of a colleague, is France happy again. I mean after the riots.
No, not happy. The people were given a vote and the Government ignored it. Seems like there could be unfinished business.
Anyway, I like France. I like the country, the food, wine, beer and even the people. I have gotten over the bad experience my family had in Paris with one rude waiter, and I enjoy visits there now.
Anyway, where were we?
Tuesday.
I woke at six after a good night's sleep, and yet laid in bed another half an hour or more. Outside the car park that had been almost empty on Sunday night, now barely has any spaces, but it has been quiet in the evenings and at night.
But as I failed to have dinner the night before, I was hungry and thirsty, so got dressed and went over to the reception building for breakfast. Fruit, fresh crispy bread, cakes, bacon and eggs, and coffee. Dark, strong coffee.
I fill my boots, and am happy twenty minutes later after two rolls and two cups of coffee.
Back to my room, grab my bag and set off for the office to meet my guide for the day. Or for the morning. A slightly later start meant that it was half light on the journey, making it a lot less stressful.
At the office, it became clear that my French being almost non-existent and my guide's English just as bad, meant that after a long slow conversation through Google Translate, we agreed to bin the audit at the service site.
I have to audit against something, and if I can't understand the work instructions or ask questions of my guide or the technicians, well, what's the point?
Exactly.
So, how to kill four hours before the next audit at half one?
I would find ways.
I decide to drive the half hour to where the next audit was to take place, then have a wander around and see if I could find something to do.
After a short blast up the motorway, I turn off and through a large village, I come to a long straight road lined with trees. The sun had just broken through and the light was low but very golden.
There was a parking space, so I pull in and take shots, and take the scene in.
I check mails and reply to those I can, and make calls.
Half an hour killed.
I found the construction site, though a small picturesque village dominated by a fine church, but drive on to the next village, Bonneuil-les-Eaux, looking for a supermarket to finish my shopping for the trip.
I go to a mid-sized store, buy two packs of beers, some cheese, cookies and some cider for Jools, pay and find I still have three hours.
I do to McDonalnds up the road for a coffee and a small cake, which makes another half an hour pass buy, then drive to the village near the construction site, Esquennoy.
I park beside the main road and walk to the church, taking shots as I go, but sadly the church is locked, and so notices when it might be open, not that I would have been able to read them!
Back to the car, and in a few minutes I get a call saying that the audit can start when I was ready.
Great news.
So, I drive to the collection of cabins, where in the largest I find the management, and the only espresso machine I have ever seen on one of our construction sites.
Good coffee is non-negotiable, apparently.
A was done by half four, just time to say goodbye and drive back to the hotel before darkness fell. I was glad to get back in one piece with no damage done to me or the car.
I had two hours to kill before the reservation I made for the Belgian place next door to the hotel. So, listened to radio, watched videos and drink (poor) tea.
At seven I walked to the Belgian place and thought I ordered spicy burger. But when it came it was a lightly battered patty, of what may have been tuna.
It wasn't bad, but no beef burger.
But the La Chouffe was good. As was the Crème Brulee I had for dessert, and the two strong coffees.
I sat up to follow Norwich at Watford, and all went well at first, with City 2-0 up in twelve minutes, but things soon went badly, and no surprise that we lost 3-2.

Well
I went to the Istituto Italiano di Cultura to finally register for my Italian course..
I've been learning Italian since about a year, and I really want to progress, the reason why I want to continue taking language lessons.
This is a big garden infront of the Institute with many Italian flags "growing" out of the earth.

The habs have done something awful that they haven't done since 1948, they got shutout 3 games in a row this week. The Buffalo Sabres, Boston Bruins, and Washington Capitals all had their way with the habs, who have been out scored 11-0 over those 3 games. They have back to back games this Tuesday and Wednesday as well, their record for back to back games is not great either, it's a rough time to be a habs fan.
Luckily I have had some great distractions from the habbies this weekend. A few friends and I were down at The Ship tonight while Joanna Barker and Dead Language were followed by the Hunter Gatherers. It was another great night for music and a great night to distract me from the habs' woes.
