Last weekend I took my wife away for the night, for her birthday. We went to a little town called Arniston (about 2 hours from Cape Town). When I say little town, it was seriously little and not much to do. After checking in to the guest house we took a drive out to Cape Agulhas (The most southern tip of Africa). It was a pretty weird feeling standing right where the two oceans meet and being on the very tip of the continent. It kind of made me feel quite small.

I took in a couple of rolls of film I had lying around in to be developed the other day. Not having any idea what was on them, I was quite excited to get the negatives back. I haven’t been shooting enough film lately and have been thinking of ways to incorporate it into some of the weddings I have coming up. Mmmm.... Might have to buy that Hasselblad after all. Anyway here are a few of my favourite shots from the 5 rolls of surprise film. (A couple of the rolls were very old and expired).

Awesome! What a great surprise...I have a handfull of rolls that I never developed from a few years ago. I might do the same 
Love the colors and gritiness to these. I hate that I love film so much... must resist more gear purchases.
Love it! Nothing beats the surprise of collecting processed film. The b+w alleyway is my fave.
Wow - how cool - love that black and white image of the alley
omg....you are as good as they say you are. even if you forget stuff.
My fav: the deep down in the grass shot....just reminds me of what i wish for!
Fantastic! Who needs Photoshop when you can get textures like these au naturel? I think I'm going to abuse my film and see what happens - thanks for the inspiration
Love it! Awesome colour and grain!
There's magic in these images Mark. Buried treasure exposed. Reminds me I have a roll of 35mm in the fridge that's been there for a couple of years now, having been exposed. I must take it to the lab and find out what it was I shot on it.
I really like your blog. Very good posts! Please continue posting such awesome cnotent.
That's actually some really cool results!
I met up with a group of local photographers today for the Scott Kelby's 3rd Annual World Wide Photo Walk. We shot around the Greenpoint stadium and it was quite strange to seeing the place so empty after weeks of it being flooded by crazy soccer fans (me included). Jurgen thanks for putting the walk together, it was very cool to finally meet some of my online friends face to face.

It was indeed weird to see the whole area so quiet and spooky...very much a ghost town feel.
Love the 2nd shot, awesome tones!
Very nice architecture photographs.
Beautiful compositions of the architecture!
You sir have got some great shots here. And your processing is KILLER!
Love the fourth one down, sunflare is yummy!
Hi Mark,
It was great to meet you finally in person. Thanks to Scott Kelby to starting the initiative for the worldwide photowalk.
I look forward to more of these events and maybe we meet also also at the Cape Town Photography Meetup.
