Porthleven is my favourite coastal village. I was having a wander, no particular plan, just looking.
An older couple had set themselves up against the stone wall — folding chairs, hats against the midday sun, shoes off, a flask, a woven beach bag. Everything they needed for a slow afternoon. They weren't doing anything. That was exactly the point.
If you look carefully, there's a figure in the background. I saw it, I took it.
That's Porthleven. It doesn't perform. It just gets on with the business of being itself, and if you're paying attention with a camera already in your hand, it lets you in.
C Type Fuji Gloss
Professional colour paper from the Fuji Crystal archive range with a gloss finish, which accentuates the colour to give a punchy, rich feel. Gives your image more contrast, glossiness, and a punchier colour feel compared to Fuji Matt, while maintaining tonal properties and accurate reproduction.
