I've tried to avoid putting this one out for a while but like ripping a plaster off I thought getting it out early may be best. There are still plenty of these interviews to come over the next few months as we speak to some of the film shooters on site but for now, I hope you enjoy our 7th Behind the Film interview.

Time to go green?
As the threat of the climate crisis grows each day - we must strive for sustainability in all aspects of life. But when standing atop a cliff shakily clutching your 5x4 camera, or working under the red light of your local darkroom - sustainability can seem like a distant concern, reserved for those in stuffy offices or holding placards outside of parliament.
As analogue photography has always been eager to embrace innovation in the face of change - is it time to go green?
My name is...

Hi, my name is Daniel. I am a family father, creative director, and amateur photographer, so you might say I make my living by telling stories and I feel fine when things get emotional ;-). I am based in Heroldsbach, Germany. That’s a small village which lies on the edge of the so-called Karpfenland, a natural landscape transformed by man for pond farming.
Until 2013, this cultural landscape was utterly unknown to me. Today it has become my home. Yet one question nags on me:
“Who shapes whom more:...

This week's #fridayfavourites theme was #croppednegs. When we take our negs into the darkroom or, share them on social media we often crop to show part of the frame, it was exciting to see how you chose to crop your negatives.
@ironketti So this weeks #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites is #croppednegs This is not something I do often but it is not unknown. All of these were originally for @_JasonAvery 's #Camerachallenge and are taken on #120 #XP2super with my yashicamat 124g

As a child I fell in love with the magic of the darkroom and of making Gelatin Silver prints. Watching a print develop fascinated me. In high school I had access to a darkroom working with 620 film (2.25 X 3.25 inch roll film.) and, consequently, I studied photography at Rochester Institute of Technology, School of Photography & Syracuse University School of Journalism. Studying with art-photographer Minor White opened my eyes to using photography as an art form. Minor helped me see beyond the objective...
