Almost all the images on this site started out as either 35mm transparencies or 35mm negatives. These are created using Contax SLRs (the cheap end of the range) with a mixture of Contax, Tamron and Yashica lenses. Some of the exteriors also used a Kaesmann circular polariser. Interiors were mainly lit by a studio flash head with shoot through brolly, though a handful used a Metz 45 instead. The trannies/negs are scanned using a Nikon Coolscan III (2700dpi) before being trimmed and adjusted in Photoshop which is wonderful for taking out a lot of the distortions inherrent in using wide angled lenses in confined spaces.
The vast majority of the pictures of Whitemill itself were taken on Fuji Velvia (50ASA), tripod mounted, over a period of about a year - originally to provide the custodian with a set of transparencies to use when giving illustrated talks about the mill.
Pictures of anywhere other than Whitemill are mainly on Fuji Superia (200ASA), sans tripod, with the Metz 45 providing light for the interiors and occasional fill-in outside.
I'm about to start experimenting with Kodak "Royal" film as I've heard it's extremely well suited to scanning and I've had some fairly strange results with the Superia.
One thing I have particularly noted whilst preparing the images for these pages is that brickwork and weatherboarding do not take kindly to JPEG compression - you'll see all sorts of jaggies and Moire patterns.
