Calm

Film: Ilford HP5+ @EI200

Process: Bellini Hydrofen (updated Rodinal Special / Studional) 1+39, 4min 30 sec @20*C

Camera: Hasselblad 500C/M, 80mm f2.8 C T* Planar, UV (010) filter

Scanner: Optronics ColorGetter Falcon drum scanner, wet-mounted scan.

 

I have not done much night photography, so I took the chance to capture this image while visiting Leeds Castle, near Maidstone, Kent. Including an allowance for reciprocity failure, exposure time was about 15 seconds.

 

This is also the first time I have pulled HP5+ and the technique has worked well - I am pleased with the overall creaminess and depth of the tones. The Bellini developer has also worked very well here.
