Scandinavian Wide Boy

June 25, 2014 by Phil Kneen Photography

I took my plastic Holga Pano Wide 6x12cm film camera to Norway with me, plus 20 rolls of film, but I only shot two rolls, one of colour and one of black & white (Kodak Portra 800 and Kodak Tri-X 400). Developed and scanned at Peak Imaging. I wish I’d shot more film now…

The shoot was pleasant enough, Andy brought out some excellent fresh coffee, chain-smoked cigarettes and showed us photos of motorbike racing that he’d shot years ago. With me on the shoot were Simon and Angela Campbell, very close friends, Simon also acts as my agent. […]
