From the rolls of negatives rescued from my attic, these pics appeared. They were taken with a Horizont, a Russian camera that took a full 180 degree picture. I remember using it, to great effect, on a location shoot in Fettercairn but unfortunately I don’t know where those photographs went.
This selection here are of the flat in Step Row that I shared with Jim Marshall and artist Jack Morrocco in the early 70s, when we were all at Duncan of Jordanstone College of Art. The shot above shows a 22-ish me in the living room, where I had a bed in the alcove, behind the curtains. Jim must have taken this pic. I look pretty glum, but don’t I always!
These two are of Jim’s rather tidy student’s bedroom, decorated with its typical 70s posters, single wardrobe, radio, anglepoise and one-bar radiator. I thought it best not to record the state of Jack’s room!
