back to the childhood

Every summer I travel to places where I spent my childhood. And sometimes I’m allowed to take pictures of my current childhood. I would ask the father of the little boy in the water to write to me so that I can send him a photo in better resolution…. 🙃🎞📷

Relax with Eastman Kodak 5231…

We spent Saturday morning on these warm days 500 meters above sea level…on the pedal boat. It definitely wanted to take a lens with a shorter focal length than 50mm🙃🎞📷

Eastman Kodak 2237…

Today I tested another great negative film from Kodak. It is primarily intended for copying and archiving. But it’s definitely great for photograph. I certainly could have brought a better lens… but you know me. I like to shoot with lenses that have reached their end of life and no one wants them🙃📷🎞

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🙃📷🙏

Today, while waiting in the parking lot, I asked two drivers if I could take pictures of their vehicles. Neither of them refused. And that doesn’t happen to me often 📷🎞🙃

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 🙃🎞📷
