A Lesson Learned...

When we had our practical introduction to the medium format work we were separated into groups of 3. In my group was Matty and Zeba. The idea was that we would shoot a roll of film experimenting with different lens and also using extension tubes etc. we did this but when we got to our max of 12 pictures that you expect to get on a roll for some reason it kept on winding on. We couldn't understand this so we asked Steve what was going on. He also didn't know so Jamie shot the film till it eventually stopped.  When we processed the film only one of our images was there the rest were what Jamie shot of nothing. For days I couldn't work out why this had happened. THEN all of a sudden it clicked where we went wrong. Silly us! We didn't wind the film on when we put the back on the Hasselblad. We just started shooting straight away. Basically we shot onto paper. That is a mistake I won’t be making again!!!
