Scarborough – My photograph of the year 2025.

By Steviemac

This picture was one of those happy instances of being in the right place when a subject placed itself right in front of me. The Mod couple were riding along the seafront at Scarborough, and stopped in the traffic. I was able to cross to the middle of the road and grab this shot. The fact that they were clearly pleased at being ‘papped’ by a random guy with an old camera made this moment. They gave me a thumbs up after I’d taken the shot and I called out my thanks in return. Rolleiflex 2.8D and Kodak Gold 200 film.

About The Author

By Steviemac
I live in the northwest of England. I have loved photography since my teens, and have amassed a significant collection of cameras. Most were bought during the golden era when digital took to the throne, and film was yesterday's news, meaning I could buy them for little money. I photograph purely for pleasure, and I have an incurable GAS condition, for which I have resisted any and all suggestions of a cure.

What a nice coincidence, Stevie! They should have stopped to give you their email address so you could send them the picture or - better even - a print of it!
