If you follow me on Instagram then you’ll know that I’m in the process of fixing and customising an Anniversary Speed Graphic that I bought from eBay.

Originally I wanted to simply make my own bellows and then start using it. As time went on though, I realised that creating your own bellows is trickier than I had appreciated so I’ve now outsourced it to a guy in Belgium who is a pro at this kind of thing.

I didn’t stop there though, while the bellows were away, I started to break down the camera into it’s individual components to clean up and create the look I want for this camera.

If there is an image that needed sharing on Tumblr it was this one. Logan, or 6cmzumquadrat as he is on here, was someone I got to know in the Tumblr community a few year ago. He lives in Oregan, USA so when I heard he was visiting Edinburgh on holiday I couldn’t turn down meeting up. We met in the city centre where we had a good chat, shot some film, and exchanged portraits. Meeting like this sums up what the film photography community is (or certainly was) like on Tumblr.

You can check out Logan’s trip here.

This has to be one of my favourite places on this earth! It brings such good memories like the time my wife and I visited in December 2006 and were the only ones there. It was a time that would have been perfect to propose to your, then, girlfriend - if the ring had arrived at the jewellers. We were engaged two weeks later.
