Spent a sunny(ish) day with Lobster Boy walking round the Greenwich peninsular. An unusual amount of bizarrely placed chairs and even a sofa presented themselves, together with knee-deep quantities of rubbish on the shore.
Used the Bessa with the Leitz Summitar 50/2. Could have done with a wider lens and the Summitar is prone to flares without the big bucket hood. I’m using up the Delta Pro 100 & Ilford DD-X. When it has gone I’ll stick to FP4+ for ISO 100 film and use the wonderful Rodinal for developing the negs, a combination I am more happy with. Cheaper too…
King of rubbish:
This ‘beach’ is seriously blighted by rubbish. It looks like a tip. I’m trying to remember what was on this site before, some kind of warehouse or a wharf for recycling? Lots of crap left over after the demolition anyway. Copious quantities of trainers too. All washed twice a day by the tide.
Lord of light:
Lots of evidence of flare here because the sun was low and the Summitar is not at its best pointing in the direction of the light source. However, the bench glows and there is a slight air of mystery.
Embedded:
More seating
These had sunk deep. The chair looks like it has fallen from a great height.
Sad Diner:
Another broken chair here. We had coffee at the ‘London Diner’ at the Dome. Another tea-hut with a grandiose name with a woman serving coffee who has strong opnions on americano and esspresso coffee a la anglaise. I agree with her and have a filter coffee instead. The crap they call esspresso from the machine they have there is unspeakably bad.
Boneyard toys:
Fisher-Price. Indestructible. Looks like a dinosaur pelvis to me.
More Fisher-price crap. It is having a laugh. You can see the rubbish behind…
Meta-trash:
A trash-can in a trash heap. Recursive or what. It wasn’t the only one. Where do you throw the trash cans?
And finally, da da da:
There is only one caption for this.
Fuck..
