This is half a film review and half a review of the little seaside town where there's going to be a photo walk in a few weeks' time.
I've been taking pictures up Wells for long enough to know it just spoils you sometimes.
It might be charming little spot even if it is a touch on the touristy side.
But it's also north facing, so the sun's on your side for a lot of the day.
Most people don't stray far from the harbour, or the beach with its colourful huts and acres of sand.
But if you yomp it east past Tugboat Yard, where the quay peters out into the marshes, you get some lovely views that are well worth some extra shoe leather.
Film for the walk is Kodak Ultramax 400, so I took a roll up there for a sneak peak on a sunny day to see how it fared.
And it didn't turn out too shabby, although while it's rated for its strong colours I found the scans needed a bit of a nudge in post.
I wondered about slapping on a polariser for one or two of the scenes, until I realised I hadn't brought one with me.
I did bracket one or two of what I thought might turn out to be the better pictures as I haven't shot this film before.
Colour film does have some latitude, but I really wanted the longs of the harbour to work.
So I gave them a stop either side of what the meter said just in case.
The meter reading turned out best, so maybe I'll just trust that next time with this film instead of wasting two frames for every one I shoot.
I was asking a lot going at the gantry that pokes out of a great big building over the quayside on a wide but it more or less did what I was after.
I wanted that vivid sky, with a bit of detail in the structure, so again a little tickle was needed to make the clouds sing.
The film also delivered well on one or two of the detail pictures shot long, like the two little boats snuggled up grounded on the mud or the old crest outside what was once a customs house by the harbour.
