Two years on I got to re-visit this wonderful scrap yard in Sweden. This is just a taste of things to come.

I like the colour version just as much as the black and white. Although I mostly am a black and white kinda guy I thought I’d share this shop scan with you. I’ve just added the frame.

My daughters old Irish dancing shoes caught my eye yesterday. Black and white conversion in Silver Efex Pro 2.

Before the Storm (Black and White)

I couldn’t leave this shot alone. I wanted to see how it would look in black and white. I thought I’d post the result so you can judge for yourselves.

I packed my gear away in my sack and wondered around in the rain with my iPhone 4s

The Norwegian Tempo Club III

I was asked to take a couple of shots of some colleagues on one of their annual outings with the Norsk Tempo Klubb
The Tempo is a Norwegian moped from around the 60’s.
This shot (my personal favourite from this quick shoot)was taken using my 1958 Yashica-C TLR  from the same period as the mopeds (And some of the owners) What supprised me was the amount Of fine detail there is in this shot. The film I used was  Kodak T-max  100 asa which I developed in Caffenol -C with a reduced soda recipe using only 40g per litre instead of 54g. for 14mins at 20℃. The negatives were scanned on my Epson V700 using Silverfast SW.

I’m planning a page to explain for beginners how to use Caffenol. There are many fine sites on the web but this will be a basic “How I did it” article. So stay tuned
