1969 Falkand Islands (Malvinas). We were filming wildlife and the daily life of the islanders for BBC Television and our journeys took us to some of the most distant parts of the archipelago. Here we set out to travel across some open sea in the West Falklands. For the hardy local people it was normal as they owned their own boats and would think nothing of a few hours crossing to a friend's island for a party. In the background are 'the Jasons' once known as the Sebaldes which since the 1990s have been owned by the Wildlife Conservation Society of New York.

Camera: Nikon F 35mm Single Lens Reflex with Nikkor 105mm F2.5 lens. Film - Kodak Plus X Pan 1/500 second F5.6. Developed by hand in Stanley in the darkroom of local photographer John Leonard using Kodak Microdol at normal dilution.
