What the Dickens?
Mamiya TLR (twin lens reflex) film camera with 80mm Sekor lenses. Ilford FP4 black and white film rated at 125 ISO and developed in Ilford ID XI.
Negative made in 1982. Scanned using CanoScan 8800F.
These volumes had a rich burgundy hue, and much I as I have always liked monochrome, I would use colour now for this picture.

Window Bay at Chillingham Castle
A large room full of odd items of furniture and artefacts, including an eclectic array of musical instruments. The room is still used by the owner and his guests. Chillingham Castle, Northumberland (England's most haunted castle, apparently).
