I've had this tumblr for a long time and used to redirect instagram pictures to it. I have given it a spring clean and now it's my gallery for my Leica pictures and street photography.

http://grafichouse-blog.tumblr.com/ I hope it is interesting and it will grow over time.

Very nice indeed. Your XP2 work highlights this excellent film. My long time favourite.

Thanks, I've been trying other films and home processing. It's nice to get back to doing it myself but without a lot of experimenting I can't seem to get the results I hoped for from other films. I went back to a roll of XP2 and the tones were great and the grain was nice. My only issue is my local lab sometimes produces streaky negs, possibly the machine is not washing or drying well enough but it shows up on some shots more than others.

That's very nice, Martin. I'm now following. 

 

I really enjoy tumblr and have lately expanded my use to include galleries using simple custom pages. I also just started experimenting with integrating Adobe Spark for full screen galleries. Today I wrote a tumblr post about it that might be of interest:

Excellent XP2 results. I'd be interested to see the blog growing to include some of the work from 20+ years ago that you mention reviewing.

Thanks, yes i've scanned a few shots but i'll add more over time.

Followed. You have some great pictures on your blog. Clearly a quick hand to eye coordination, with some of those pigeon shots!
