Before it's officially too late to stop posting Christmas photos, here are some shots from a roll of film I recently got developed. I used my Canon 1000f with Ektar film (will review soon!)
You may notice, from the above picture, I like to clash at Christmas! Thanks Dani for the 'upping the aperture' tip to get my film shots in focus, seems to be working, hurrah!
Ben and I went to my family for Christmas lunch, Ben commented it was a very Australian Christmas spread; cold ham, fresh prawns, chicken, salads and of course Bon bons!
At night we headed to my friend's shane place, they have a wood fire oven, so we all made our own pizza and had a pizza-off, my pizza didn't do so great because the pumpkin was slightly undercooked...oops!
And then Ben and I ended the night by getting silly but we're always silly, so that's not so odd :p Ben went back to work the other day, so it's back to being boyfriend-less for another six weeks, nooooo! I've learnt to adjust to him being away (sorta) but it's still sucks, I miss my buddy :(
:D you two make a sweet couple!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sara!!
DeleteSuch a cute piccie by the tree :)
ReplyDeleteYour christmas lunch sounds like our Gatton one hehe similar tastes in the family! :)
Never too late/early for christmas goodness xxxx
I personally love that particular Christmas lunch everything I love, food wise, presented to me in one big spread, he he he :)
DeleteI am digging the film photos, especially that last pic. Such a different look pictures had back then!

We hardly ever get photos together, mostly because I'm the one taking the photos :P
Deleteaww and no drama about my feedback, I think your art is great :)
i love these captures. i want to shoot in film and have been on the search of old canon ones. would love to play around with them and learn!
ReplyDeleteThey are definitely floating out there or even ebay if all else fails :) I have a lot of fun with film!
DeleteA couple pic and focused, they are my favorites! (not-focused couple pics are fun as well ;)). It's fun to learn about australian christmas lunch (with all of you short-sleeved and with all sort of cold dishes), here in Barcelona we are more into hot soup to avoid the cold temperatures ;) Your friend Shane makes me jealous about his wood fire oven, I want a wooden one or a brick one but Damaris is not that crazy about getting the perfect homemade pizza as I am ;) and sorry to hear about Ben going back to work, you both make a great couple! Where does he work at?
ReplyDeleteThanks to your tip Dani, I'm getting the hang of the focusing - or the people I give the camera to are :P Wow hot soups for Christmas Lunch, that is so crazy - not that hot soups don't make sense in winter, I'm just imagining us eating hot soups and melting :P I'm jealous of Shane's woodfire oven too! I'm going back over tonight to try and learn more secrets of pizza making, I'll have to share them :)
DeleteBen works out in the middle of Australia, aka the desert doing seismic work - pre-mining ( they collect the data of what's in the ground) it's all pretty bad, they seem to be reaping our natural resources at a fast rate. Ben is just trying to save enough to be able to buy some land and then he is out...well I hope he gets out because I miss him :P
The idea of saving money to buy land sounds very romantic, hope you can do it soon! In a fun note, my guessing was Ben being a sailor, lol xD
DeleteSounds nice hey :) Ohh a sailor I'll tell him that, he'll love it!
