Some Distant Memory – Kumbh Mela
This has been posted before. It was one of my favourites taken at the Kumbh Mela in 2013. Leica M6 / Fuji Provia 400. A few years before this photo was taken my wife told me she wanted to visit festivals around the world and in Allahabad in 2013 the biggest Kumbh Mela in 144…

India: Allahabad
There are over 30 rolls of Portra still in the fridge to develop but in the meantime here are a few slide shots. I’m still learning about film and of all the films slide film’s learning curve seems to be the steepest. For that reason I only took 4 rolls with me to India. Here…
