This week I shot a roll of Fuji Pro400h in the Holga. It was a particularly bright day so 400iso was a bit to strong. It was already loaded from a few days before so I didn’t really have a choice.
I decided to try a theme this week and the theme was Coffee. I ordered myself a double espresso and thought about where I wanted to take pictures to show you all
Now I am a tea drinker on a daily basis, so only have coffee now and again. If I do have coffee it has to be a good full flavoured roast and I take it black with no sugar (biscuits and chocolates not included)
I don’t really like the coffee served in the chain coffee shops
Luckily in the UK now there is a big coffee culture with many independent shops serving good quality coffee and really nice treats and breakfasts to go with them. The one below is called Grace and is near my office, it also serves the best Sausage rolls in the city.
The one below here also near where I work is run by some Italian ladies and the coffee is good as are the brownies and other food treats they have on offer.
There are a couple of others near me, one I never go to as the coffee is far too strong for me
Then there are the ‘lets pretend we are independent but obviously backed up by a corporation or franchise’ shops
Anyhow, hope you enjoyed the little coffee tour, not my best images but this project is about sharing the journey. My cup is empty now so I will bid you all a farewell
OOOOOOH I love strong coffee, but that’s why you need lots of cream. And good for you skipping the ‘name brands’

No cream for me.

A very good idea ! I make coffee in my office every day when I am at work (and take pictures of everyone at least once a week) so you have just given me an idea :-).

Fun theme! I wish I had thought of it when in Iceland, where they REALLY love their coffee and the only thing I saw even approaching a chain was one with two outlets. Guess I’ll have to head back there soon to do that 🙂
