Leigh Woods, Bristol.

 

In the 1980s, an iconic British TV series called "Robin of Sherwood" was filmed in these woods. The first series stars Michael Praed as Robin and the second stars Jason Connery (son of Sean). The series shows Robin in the Hood not just as a folkloric hero but also emphasises the pagan aspects of the legends, with Robin as a sort of Green Man, a primal spirit of the forest. It also features a forest god called Herne the Hunter, who is never seen but communicates through a shaman/Druid who wears an antler headdress and whose arrival is heralded by swirling mists.

 

Easy to see why the producers chose to film the series in these woods.

The small path leads to a clearing with huge tree basking in the early sunlight in Borthwood forest.

Native to north temperate and boreal North America, Jewelweed or Spotted Touch-me-nots has a long history of use in indigenous medicine. When applied topically, the sap from stem and leaves is said to relieve itching and pain from a variety of ailments, including hives, poison ivy, stinging nettles, and other skin sores and irritations.

film diary post

 

The last time I went running was in mid December, due to a sprained foot and a longlasting illness, and I really really miss it. :(

Three from this delicious fungi i've found yesterday. All only 2-3m away from the forestpath. A very happy day with a family gathering at the evening for eat them.

One of the pictures to see the different look of HP5 rated @ 1600 (pushed two stops) in comparison to Delta 3200 rated @ 1600 (the actual sensitivity of this film).

“Even the smallest light may guide us through the deepest shadows — for hope, like magic, dwells in humble places.”

Standing tall through the shifting seasons, this old tree reminds us that change is a form of strength.

Each branch tells a story of growth, resilience, and time — painted in the quiet fire of autumn.

Captured in the calm of the forest, where silence speaks and colors breathe.

Sometimes, highly corrected modern lenses can be far too sharp when emphasizing mood rather than detail. The interest in cameras with low optical performance such as the Holga or pinhole cameras shows this. I'm interested in when sharpness is essential, when less important and when sharpness can be annoying. The above image was taken using a 4.5x6 cm Ikonta with a Novar triplet lens at wide open aperture. Compared to the Holga, this has the advantage that I can set the aperture and exposure time more variably, and compared to a pinhole camera I can take photos handheld, which also increases flexibility. At open aperture, Novars render the center of the image moderately sharp, while the edges and corners slip into blur and also darken. This draws the viewer's eye to the center of the image. Also, the low resolution can emphasize coarse structures or color patterns rather than tiny details, such as the bark or individual leaves of trees. This makes the images pictorial, painterly or impressionistic. Possibly, technical imperfection can be used creatively - at least that's my hope.

A neck ditch (Halsgraben), sometimes called a throat ditch, is a dry moat that does not fully surround a castle, but only bars the side that is not protected by natural obstacles.

 

An enchanted place somewhere in the Austrian forests ...

Two Scottish Highlanders emerge from the mist on a beautiful September morning. Framed by the trees in the heather fields of Holland. It was such a special moment. Happy to take a step to the left and let them pass.

 

Many thanks for your comments and favs, really appreciated.
