The images that we’ve chosen for this week’s #ilfordfridayfavourites all made us pause for a while and take a closer look.

Friday Favourites: 02nd February

Nothing to lose, everything to gain by Sandeep Sumal

Hi, I’m Sandeep a keen amateur photographer based in London and the south East.  I photograph mainly using film with black & white film being a particular favourite of mine. I took up film photography 2 years ago, not just for the process or the look but also to learn how to take pictures starting with the basics.

As a relative newbie there is a lot I still don’t know or understand around the history of photographic film types and the various process do’s & don’ts.  I’m OK with this and let me tell you why.

Street Portraits by Davide Rizzo

I was born in Palermo, Sicily in 1978 from a quite ordinary, middle-class family, and I have spent most of my life there (including the academic years that led me to a master in Computer Engineering) until I decided to move abroad and build my career in Consulting. I have since then lived in Milan, Turin, Paris, Brussels and now London.

Happy new year to you all.

We asked you this week about what resolutions and challenges you have set yourselves for the next year,  and it was great to hear that so many of you are planning to take your film photography further by trying new formats, processing yourself,  or having your first go at home printing  We can’t wait to see your results.

Darkness and light with Ilford Delta 3200 by Aivaras Sidle

I’m a 36-year-old enthusiast photographer from Lithuania. I’ve had camera’s as far back as I remember – both film and digital p&s, which I used to document life around me.

My attitude towards photography changed in 2012 after I found an unused film SLR in my office. Then I started to look at my surroundings differently and I became totally hooked on shooting film.
