The Shape of things to come.

The Shape of things to come.

I’ve been under the weather this past week and I’m just getting back in my stride again. One of the things I did before I was swept away by bronchitis was order som Adox CMS20. A film I have wondered about for sometime. A 20 ASA film which judging by the results Ive seen others produce is best exposed and 16 asa or below. Special developer, and only a few seconds fixing.Sounds like a challenge.

Worldwide Pinhole Day Balls of Steel

Worldwide Pinhole Day Balls of Steel

Here is my last shot from Worldwide Pinhole day. This time I really got some “Lens flare”, if you can call a little hole a lens. As you can see the sun shone at an angle to the camera and there is some internal reflections going on. Gave a strange effect I wasn’t expecting.

Worldwide Pinhole Day:Ypsilon Bridge

Worldwide Pinhole Day:Ypsilon Bridge

WWPHD was a wonderful sunny one. I was down to 6-7 second exposure for this shot. I must learn to tilt the camera up a bit as I cut the top of the bridge and have a little to much foreground. But it’s pinhole so you live and learn to put up with small framing mistakes.

Film: Kodak T-Max 120 roll film 100 ASA
Dev: Adox Adonal 1:100 stand developed for 60mins at 20˙C Inversions for the first minute and 3 at the half way point.

Card Collectors

Card Collectors

It’s tradition in Norway that the students (Russ) have joke business cards printed up. Kids know this and every time they see a Russ they pester them for a card or two and see how many they can collect. These kids didn’t get one . The students they asked were in a bad mood.
