November & October on Film | Zafira

I'm back with another one of these film blog posts!

In my September post I said I'd combine the film shots from October and November because I knew it'd be a hectic couple of months. But, it's December and I'm finally on a fresh roll of film and I've finally gotten round to getting my previous roll developed and scanned in!

October was pretty uneventful, I was feeling quite uninspired but a day out with my cousins shopping in Manchester slowly changed that. It was nice to be out and about. I think I'd like to do some sort of film series based in Manchester, I have lived here my entire life and I've only just started to explore it.

This bin was looking particularly photogenic I couldn't help but take a picture.

At the beginning of November, I spent a weekend in Birmingham with family to mainly look at BCU as I'm applying there, but it was also really nice to just explore Birmingham a little bit since it could possibly be my home for the next 3 years. This is the Bullring and I love how it looks.

Whilst in Birmingham, I spent some quality time with these two cuties.

Since when did My Little Ponies look like this?

It was Bonfire night when I was still in Birmingham and these shots are pretty decent considering I had no tripod.

This bathroom was really nice but you can't see.

These are pretty underexposed but they have a bit of gloomy vibe and I appreciate some good old Mughal era paintings. This was when me and my family went out to eat in Birmingham.

We went out to local park and took a nice stroll and my little cousin Liyana helped me take some pretty shots.

I've spent the last two months in these amazingly comfy pants from Zara and making this glum face too.

I quite like this even though it's heavily under exposed.

I'm usually never home until after the sun sets except from on the weekends but I spent most of the weekends in my soft office. I luckily caught this shot and the these lovely warm tones it. It makes me feel really nostalgic.

Towards the end of November, it really felt like Winter.

We had a little baby shower for my Auntie at the end of November and there were a bunch of leftover desserts so I bought some in for my friends Sanjida and Cherie. They loved them.

One of my favourite portrait shots I've ever taken on film.

This is the best purchase of the year I think. I bought it from the little boys section in H&M for the bargain price of £14 and even though it's for 14 yrs +, it's quite big and over sized and has kept me warm over the past couple of weeks.

I was kindly gifted this

MAHI Leather bag

and it's the perfect bag for me. It matches everything I wear and has tons of space in which is perfect for me because I now use it for college. It's handiest, prettiest satchel I've ever set my eyes on. Expect a 'What's in My Bag' coming very very soon!

My walls are slowly starting to get completely covered in my film shots.

Kitty is the real star of the show in these film blog posts. I might have bribed her with some string but she's just so photogenic. A film roll isn't complete without her pretty face on it.
