Ollie's last pub

To some, this establishment is a place for pilgrimage. Although Oliver

Reed had a reputation as a hell raiser, I am told that he was also a

director's dream, because he could always do what was wanted in the

first take.

The Maltese are very friendly. The landlady gave me some salted

peanuts with my pint of Cisk. The nuts made me very thirsty, so I had

to have another pint. She brought me some more peanuts, and so on ...

You might like to look at some other of the monochrome images in this

folio. I started out in photography as a photojournalist, shooting

Tri-X. To my mind, modern digital cameras cannot capture the harsh

reality of our old Nikons.

Thanks, Dale

It was shot on a Nikon D70s, but when I saw the result I thought that it would be much better in black and white. I upped the contrast (etc.), so that it would look like what I would do were I shooting on Tri-X.
