Linthorst-Homanpolder

4x5 Dry plate negative, homemade silver gelatin.

 

Still unhardened gelatin,, dried for two days, plates were subbed with albumen, no frilling but as you can see the gelatine did not cover the albumen when pouring the plates. They are dried laying flat hence the dust I think. Shot at 6 asa, in the morning that worked fine but 3 or 1,5 asa would have been better here.

 

This is my third batch of silver gelatine, followed a recipe given by Mark Osterman this time, It involves a lot more treatment then my first recipe but gives a faster and cleaner gelatine. And I left out the ripening which will make it even faster.

I just did the chilling, noodling and washing, pretty advanced stuff.

 

And the light is awfully grey here lately.
