Variations with Pyro Plus…

I’ve been tuning the PYRO Plus positive developer this week. By adding a certain amount of pyrogallol at the expense of pyrocatechin. With some combinations of these two developing agents, toning of photographs is no longer necessary . However, the papers must be placed in the bowl with the sensitive layer facing up. Otherwise, you may see streaks from the ribbing on the bottom of the bowl in your photos🙃📷🙏

  • Bronica S2A + Nikon P 75mm
  • Fomapan Ortho 400 + yellow filter+ Agfa Rodinal 1:50,25°C
  • Fomabrom Variant 112 + PYRO Plus ( different variants)

mistake….

I must have been tired or thinking about something else… In short, when developing one 120 negative, I used the same amount of developer as when developing 35mm film (right before that I developed three 35mm films). So it was low of developer in the development tank. Thanks to this, the resulting image was divided into a well developed part and a poorly developed part. I angrily crumpled the wet negative and threw it in the ash bucket. The next day I took the crumpled negative out of the bucket and put it under the glass in the scanner…. I got even more mad at myself. They could have been beautiful photos 🙃🎞📷

snakes…

On my walk yesterday I noticed an unusual number of young snakes. I only had a 50mm lens with me, but still managed to take a few ordinary pictures of their lives. Although they were all no longer than 30 cm, they grow from 70 to 200 cm in adulthood 🙃🎞📷

on the our garden…

Another sunny but cold day. Directly created to work with the developer Rodinal. Some time ago I managed to get hold of two bottles from the 1970s. So I opened the first one to verify that it was still perfectly functional 🙃🎞📷

Foma ORTHO 400…

Last week, the Czech company Foma released a new orthographic film with a nominal sensitivity of ISO 400. So I immediately bought several rolls and started to choose the developer with which I will use this negative. We were warned by the manufacturer that there is no anti-halation layer on the negative, so it will not be possible to photograph yellow in backlight. Well, I tried everything I had mixed 🙃🎞📷 –

@400 stock D76 scan
@400 510Pyro FB C112 Burki&Jeny Coldtone
@400 Pextral scan
Pull 400@200 D76 FB C112 Dektol
Pull 400@200 Pextral FB C112 Burki&Jeny Coldtone
Pull 400@200 D76 1:1 FB C112 Burki&Jeny Coldtone
@400 Pextral scan – the sensitive layer could not withstand the standard concentration and began to dissolve

the maintenance…

Today I decided to replace the foam under the mirror on the Bronica S2 again . The special foam I was using before was too hard and sometimes I focused completely different than I wanted. Now I used a different special foam, but it is intended for drywallers and not for repairing cameras. Even though it is ten times cheaper, it does the job perfectly. Since I had nothing to take pictures of, I at least pointed the lens at another old camera(TLR Flexaret) that I am repairing now🙃📷🛠

  • Zenza Bronica S2 + Nikon P f 2,8/75mm
  • Ilford FP4 Plus + D76 homemade stock(continuous agitation)
