#24 – Sea Sculpture.

Canon EOS 500N | Fujifilm Superia 400

Ah, Sydney’s iconic Bondi Beach – also home to the annual Sculpture by the Sea exhibition.

It’s become a yearly affair for me to head down to Bondi for the outdoor sculpture exhibit and coastal walk – and it was even more exciting this time because I got to take my Canon EOS 500N for a spin.  

My second film camera was gifted to me with a 50mm f1.8 lens as a birthday present, and these photographs are from the first rolls of film I used with it.

And there it is – the 500N! I love how it’s lighter and more compact compared to my Nikon F90 SLR – it’s already become my everyday camera.

I hope you enjoyed these film photographs – feel free to leave a comment below and let me know what you think! 

My apologies for the lack of posts the past few weeks, but there’s more poetry, writing and photographs to come (so much backlog!).

Take care, and I’ll see you soon xx.

 

With love,

#22 – Sea Shore.

Sea Shore

I sit and stare at the sea,

As it swiftly submerges me.

 

The sea so oddly sways –

I listen as it sings successsive waves.

 

It is eerily stagnant yet still,

Like a submarine bopping along the surface;

In and out of sight.

 

Watching her ripples make me fall softly asleep,

Hypnotising me with each sweep.

 

I feel her current course through my veins;

Her tide tingles down my spine.

 

The sea steadily swims to the shore,

Slowly but surely finding in me more.

 

I sit and stare as you approach me –

Will it still be the same as before?

 

 

With love,

Emily.

#21 – Foreign.

For a thought is but an assumption without context.

#17 – Postcards.

To write a postcard is to say,

“I miss you,”

In every possible way –

I wish you had stayed.

Postcards –

Soft light and faded memories –

Perfect in the way they remind me.
