Thank you Hartmut. Your photographs certainly capture a good deal of the "vibe" of the speakers at that wonderful English institution that is Speaker's Corner. It looks like you, too, really got a lot out of the experience of visiting there.

 

I find this really quite incredible - I still can't believe we took pictures of the same guy withing days of our arrivals in London, and over 30 years ago we meet and these pictures immediately surface. Cue "Twilight Zone" music!

 

Here's another 1980 Kodachrome of my day in the park:

Incidentally, the two incidents are unrelated as far as I remember.

Thank you Phil! 

 

Love all of these and the era they typify especially the last at Speaker's (not forgetting the hairdos in the background). What a great portrait. He is Anarchy in the UK! And the Bobbies in Notting Hill. Ubiquitous and mulling. Never really quite threatening but ready when needed. Feel like I'm there.

 

So London 1980s!

Thanks a lot Hartmut. Yes, these pictures do rather bring it back a bit. Actually the police and the crowd got along very well that day and it was all good fun. And, yeah, what ever happened to those pompadour hairstyles for men and the pampered poodle perms for women?

Thanks for this. I love the gathering of police. They appear a friendly lot; more interested in which pub they take lunch.

 

I have never made a request, but I would love to see the police shot in B&W. It could possibly look like an out-take shot from the old B&W Keystone Cops silent movies.

 

Best

Given lighting, I felt lucky to get the focus accuracy I was able.

 

Of interest with this Svema 400, I took shots exposed for ISOs 400, 800 and 1600, all on the same roll. I then stand developed the roll in 1/100 Rodinal solution for one hour. It worked......to my satisfaction, which may be well below that of others. In any event, just another incursion of film into one of the "advantages," i.e. ISO on the fly, of digital.

 

Best,

 

Wayne
