Roll 12: Lucky Super 200

Here are the other images from the roll. I usually dont group what I have in the roll like the previous upload, but felt there was a theme in the boat images.

Image 1:

What I loved about the Philippines was the texture and its
overall rawness. Interesting scenes just happen everywhere. Brilliant for street photography. Clothes being hung to dry by the fence was a common site. I have many more on the other rolls hehe.

Image 2: My uncle noticed these pants hanging in the middle of this laneway whilst we were on the way back home from our photowalk.  One of the many gems you find when walking the streets. Oh and I have no idea where that black mark came from on the lower left hand side  😦

Hush (1 of 1)

Image 3:  I was bored one day so I decided to do a mini project on my grandma’s pets.  This is Hush, a very big and smart dog. He pushes a chair next to the balustrade in order to look over the balcony!

Image 4: Cup on a tire at the beach. Wished I played more with this shot.

Hillside homes (1 of 1)

Image 5: I was trying to capture the girl in yellow going up these long and steep steps on the right hand side from a balcony. Wishful thinking with my 50mm but it does show the scene of the hillside homes.

Pool (1 of 1)

Image 6: A good old reflection Image of my grandmas pool that was used only once in its lifetime. The problem was when the house was constructed drainage was not considered. They actually just let it drain onto the street! Sadly such construction problems due to oversight, cost cutting, lack of care and construction techniques are common there. Having a design background I couldn’t help but notice the sub par construction finishings and poor quality of buildings. Great for photography as you get some really raw areas and lots of urban decay but horrible if you consider it has not progressed at all.

Roll 12: Lucky Super 200

Finally back home here in Australia. Whilst away on holiday I was able to experience the worst flood in the city of Olongapo. I shot it but with digital as I ran out of film and the film store I usually get access to got flooded aswell. So I wont be posting those up here but feel free to check them out on my flickr if you would like to see the result of incompetence and corruption of the government.

I have started to get some of the rolls developed here, which are pretty much all Lucky films. The roll was mostly of these fishermen on the beach which  supposedly had an entrance fee, but they only charged it if you are not from that neighbourhood. It cost 35 pesos, which we refused to pay as we only want to walk and take photos and not swim. I have no problem with paying, but dont try to rip me off and be consistent with asking for admission. Makes me so angry how filipinos do this to one another. If you are a sucker they will make money of you. Anyways, My uncle and I stayed for about half an hour just waiting for them to reel in the fish so we can capture the moment. Sadly they didnt catch any but that didn’t stop us from snapping.

These came out so sharp that it confirmed the previous roll’s scratches was due to the machine. Quiet happy with my new Pentax K1000 🙂 I also like the contrast of this lucky film. Not bad for $2.00. Wish I bought more
