Ordinary shots….

Before everyone woke up at home, I cooked lunch (roast goose). Now it’s time to share a few ordinary BW shots ….😉📷🎞🌞

  • Nikon F50, Nikon F4, Pentacon Six TL, Decrullo-Netell, Fujica ST901, Bronica S2
  • a mix of cheap lenses ranging from 14mm to 240mm
  • homemade developers, either mixed according to original formulas or based solely on knowledge of chemical reactions. Except for ADOTECH IV (I haven’t managed to decipher that formula yet)

lith & Lilith…

I spent several long nights experimenting with my own positive developer, with which I could make photographs with and without grain, black and white and monochrome, and most importantly to make it suitable for lith print… just the holy grail. In combination with the paper used, I managed to achieve quite interesting results. I used one pack of Fomabrom N 112 for testing. At the moment when it became clear that this developer, composed of three solutions, can do a lot of effects depending on the given ratios, I used Fomatone MG clasic 132 paper. Because the lith print result seems really great to me, I named this developer Lilith The basis of this developer is the excellent negative developer 510Pyro in a dilution of 1:200. By mixing the other two solutions in different proportions, we get an almost infinite number of combinations of the results in the photo 🙃🎞📷🖼

First exploration of this developer’s abilities on Fomabrom N112 papers

  • Nikon F4 + Nikkor f1,4/50mm
  • Kodak 2237 ISO 1@12 (push 3EV) + 510Pyro
  • Fomatone MG132 classic + Lilith(own formula of developer)

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 🙃🎞📷

  • Canon EOS 500N
  • Canon STM f1.8/50mm
  • Fomapan 100 push 1EV
  • Agfa Rodinal from 60′ 1:50

the wait…

Every photographer sometimes waits for the good light that will make the shot more interesting. Sun was still hiding behind the clouds and I waited and waited…

Fomapan 100 push to 800…

I did another test with my two-bath MP271 developer, which advanced the Fomapan 100 film by 3 EV. The result looks pretty decent. Don’t expect any artwork though, but the result surprised me.🙃📷

  • Nikon F50
  • MF Samyang f2/135mm + Sigma f1,8/20mm aspherical
  • Fomapan 100 + two bath developer MP271
