Hello all,

I just took a day off work to get some of the snaps from my recent 
holiday in Whitby UK processed.

The main subjects are as in the subject line. I suppose you could call 
it street photography - for me, that's another way of saying shooting 
snapshots while walking around town :-)


With only a few exceptions, these were all shot on film (ASA 200 Colour 
Negative film - Boots store brand and Kodak Gold) with Leica and CV 
lenses (50/25/15/12mm), Rollei lenses (28 and 35mm) and a Zeiss Yashica 
T-AF 3.5/35 Tessar point and shoot. The other cameras were a Rollei 
3003, a Minolta CLE and a Pentax P30 I picked up in a charity shop along 
with a 1.8/50 and an absolute dog of a Centon 28-70 Zoom lens for a few 
pounds.

All the negatives were processed and scanned to CD at a 1-hour minilab 
just across the street from the famous Sutcliffe Gallery. I only tweaked 
the results and converted them to BW.

Be like the people on the first shot - be nosy and take a look around 
the gallery and (hopefully) enjoy a walk around the fair town of Whitby.

Comments and criticism are, as always, more than welcome.

Cheers
Douglas
