Milton Keynes 82 - more pics

I've just been going through an old photo album and found that I have another six photos i took at MK.

admittedly, the two i previously uploaded weren't great - they were taken on an old 110 instamatic camera. but at least they are part of a record of "the day" itself.

i suppose this is mainly for Bob - and anyone else interested.
if anyone wants them, i'll get them into PShop and see if i can improve them a little.

well, i've found the photos - as I said, all from Kodac Pocket Instamatic 110 these cartridge cassette cameras, were perfect for smuggling into concerts, but terrible for taking pictures: with a fixed 1/60th shutter speed and f/11 aperture there was precious little light gathering. the fixed focus didn't help much either. - so photo quality wasn't great to begin with. some have aged quite badly - as below. but i'll see if there's a rescue possible

I like the mystic air they exhale.
The one with three stars and the wise man reminds me of another one with one star and three wise men.

Do you have the negatives?

Great stuff !

Feel free to post the scans here and Chief Mouse can work his magic. He does both video and photo editing with expert precision.

i've gone though all my old photo envelopes - you know the things that used to come back from the developers? - nothing.

i doubt he can do much with these - as i said the f/11 / 1/60th (combined with the fixed focus) on those old kodak pocket instamatics was its own saboteur...just a bit of movement between you and the target and the focus shifted.

if Chief Mouse PMs me, i'll happily send them on to him.

Very good information, I'm looking into it and need it, can you say more? krunker

@brENsKi, how fortunate you are to have been able to see them in concert back then. And be so close to the stage too!!

Double post

it's a shame my pics were so crap. gigs back then, banned cameras of any kind, so i risked the Instamatic 110 - a crappy little cartridge cassette thing - thinking it wouldn't be a huge loss if it were confiscated.

FWIR there was little or no proper searching - save for huge piles of confiscated bottles and cans of beer etc.

scans sent to Bob for sending to Chief Mouse
