    A white bicycle, reminded me of a song by Scottish band Nazareth My White Bicycle Dan McCafferty, just had to photograph it. Its a popular ringtone now. Usual story, Holga .Ilford. Neopan 400 developed in Rodinal.

    My white bicycle, my white bicycle

    Riding all around the street
    Four oclock and theyre all asleep
    Im not tired and its so late
    Moving fast everything looks great.

    My white bicycle, my white bicycle

    See that man, hes all alone
    Looks so happy but hes far from home
    Ring my bell, smile at him
    Better kick over his garbage bin

    My white bicycle, my white bicycle

    The rain comes down but I dont care
    The wind is blowing in my hair
    Seagulls flying in the air

    My white bicycle

    Lead:

    Policeman shouts but I dont see him
    Theyre one thing I dont believe in
    Find some judge, but its not leavin

    Lift both hands, his head in disgrace
    Shines no light upon my face
    Through the darkness, we still speed
    My white bicycle and me

    My white bicycle, my white bicycle

    I really like the second Paris shot alot more. Dunno why!

    The bike shot is good too, it doesnt look like it was taken on a Holga at all. Very sharp!

    Good shot though too!

    Good shot of the bike,
    though I had never imagined it as a step-through.

    I did prefer their cover of ‘This Flight Tonight’ though.

    I haven’t read all this thread, but the photo I have seen are the kinda thing I want from a photo.
    I’m not a big fan of digital, but it’s quick and easy.
    I’m going to have to get one of these bad boys and see what its like, but how easy is it to get film for it and get the film processed?

    Theyre the job.

    Film is handy enough to come by. i mean you probably wont find it in your local chemist. But its for sale in most camera shops.

    As for processing, this can be a pain in the hole. Most 1 hours labs wont do it, even if it is C41(it wont be in done in an hour but you know what I mean), and theyll try to get ya to send it away with spectra photo or something. Im lucky in that Sam McCauleys chemist in waterford will process it no problem in a day. I dunno if many other places do though.
