It’s quite unusual for me to make photographs during golden hour. Most of the time I either need to get ready for work in the morning, or I’m too tired to bother with going out in the evening. So it’s only when I’m on a holiday or something that I tend to take advantage of the soft, warm light it presents.
My wife and I had been out for something to eat in one of the harbour-side restaurants, and the sun was setting when we finished our meal, so I managed to get a few pictures. I also took a digital shot of this same scene which, if I’m honest, I prefer to the film version (traitor!). You can see this at the bottom of the post.
Nikon F80, Nikkor 28-80mm f.3.5-5.6 AF-D & Kodak Colorplus . Lab developed. Home scanned and converted with Negative Lab Pro
Here’s the digital version, shot with my Ricoh GR III.
Taken 19 August 2023.
