Our Ultra Large Format (ULF) campaign is back for the 17th year in a row.
For the 17th consecutive year, we're giving photographers the opportunity to order selected custom sizes of ILFORD sheet film and other specialist products without the constraints of the usual minimum order quantity.
We know many of you look forward to this and, despite the delays caused by COVID-19, we remain committed to running this campaign. ULF photographers have until Friday 19th August 2022 to place their orders with pa...
These Dark Mountains
I grew up in a small valley town surrounded by the Alps in North Italy. I have always wondered what it feels like to live and work up there in the mountains, in such a stunning but also dangerous and rough natural environment. Especially after moving to Berlin in 2015, my fascination for a life still tied to nature’s rhythm started to grow. The natural landscape which I left behind, and which used to be what I would call “home”, turned into something distant. I began to question ...
For this weeks #fridayfavourites, we allowed any shot made on our ILFORD or KENTMERE films can be entered for #filmfreedom.

Always watchful
As a woman, out and about taking photographs on my own, I try to take care not to put myself at any unnecessary risk. I’m always watchful of anyone taking the wrong kind of interest in me or my gear. I shouldn’t have to worry about things like that but sadly, that’s how life is.
When I go out, I don’t have any expectations of what I’m going to shoot that day because I never know what, or who, will turn up.

Monika Danos is our 60th In Focus interview. When not taking care of daily life, her love for trees and gardens means that she can be found chasing shadows with her pinhole camera, or printing in the darkroom. Patterns and lines that are created by light and shadow influence her style of work. Photography and the cyanotype prints gives Monika the opportunity to share what she see's in nature and in her daily life.

How It Began
When Covid-19 started, I had just made plans to follow the Bristol Roller Derby team around the UK to shoot their games. I suddenly had no focus for my photography and I wanted to make sure that I had a project to work on. I also wanted to do something with the LGBTQ+ community. In Bristol and had been photographing a friend during their transition. I thought, maybe as lockdown lifts people will want to get out and have their portraits taken. And that is how the idea for the project came about...
When I told my friend that I was going to write a piece explaining why I chose to shoot the Pride event in Salem, Massachusetts in black and white, she just laughed and told me to get on my soapbox. I'm not sure what a soap box is but if it helps me explain why I think that black and white film is incredibly important as a medium and not “old fashioned” as some think, then I'm on it. Bring me a soapbox!
How it Started
This started when I posted a photo on Instagram of a couple sharing a kiss at the ...
#botanical was the best theme for this weeks #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites. We are in the middle of summer, and everything has fully bloomed. Have a look who shared their work with us this week.

'Something Special'
There is a unique rendering to photographs made with Multigrade enlarging papers. It's difficult to define, maybe it's the timeless mood or perhaps it's the mystical feeling, or even a haunting aura... it's certainly there for me I like this very much!
Add to this, it's super economical and can be visually handled via darkroom safe-lights. No more fussing around in total darkness which often requires the use strong language! Humour aside, I find the physical involvement of handling the...
The theme for this weeks #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites was #leadinglines. We wanted you to show us lines that are framed and positioned to draw our eyes towards the focal point. The submissions this week are extremely strong and was extremely hard to pick five images.
@myfavouritelee Replying to @ILFORDPhoto Good theme, this. Here are three on Delta 100. #ilfordphoto #fridayfavourites #leadinglines
