Narrow boat entering a lock. In the early 20th century, facing steep competition from railways, the Grand Union Canal rebuilt its locks to take two boats. One is already in the lock. You can see the mouth of the old single lock, paved over. Of course, the investment failed.

Eel traps on the River Test. The Test is famous as a chalk stream for fly fishing. We saw these structures from a bridge and couldn't work out what they were, but apparently these are eel traps, now disused as eels are protected.

Longstock Park Water Gardens 7. I forgot I also had my pocket #OlympusMju2 loaded with Kodak Gold 200, and took a few frames in the gardens. This is the nicest, although I do prefer the black and white...
Devved by Polyfilm Labs, who also did my Scala. Scanned by me with Vuescan. The colours were all over the place; I've done my (limited) best with them!
The runner. It's the nature of pocket cameras that films can cover a long period. This was the first on this roll.

Yesterday was the local charity fireworks display, in a field in front of Kenilworth Castle. It's years since we went; crammed with 10,000 people in a muddy field for an hour is not fun. I meant to take my camera out & get reflections of fireworks in the local lake; didn't work out, for "life" reasons. So then I thought I'd post an older fireworks photo for Silent Sunday, but no, d'oh! So here's that photo instead.

#ZeissIkonta524, #Kentmere100, home devved in HC-110 dilution B (1+31), home scanned with an #EpsonV500.
My #ZeissIkonta524 has a bit of a fault that makes it difficult to use. Not in the images: lens, shutter, bellows, seals etc all seem fine. But there's a metal slide that operates the latch to open the back, which seems to be made of soft metal and has become extremely stiff. I'm now using a metal ruler to give a bit more grip at the end. Anyone any ideas how to fix it?
