Shivling peak in morning light...
Though a technically okay-only kind of photograph, this one is still special to me as my first large format landscape, shot on 4x5.
Film stock is Ilford Delta 100, developed in tray with Caffenol-C-L, using stand development. Also, my first time with the CL brew, and first time ever trying stand development. Developed for cir. 32 min with an ambient temperature of about 20 degrees C, and the film having been exposed at ISO 80 consideration.
Now, I did scratch it a bit on the top right corner since I was handling it in the dark, along with two other negs in an 8x10 tray. Have cloned for those in the sky. The kind of light leak on the bottom left is light spilling from my unmasked lightbox copy setup, and the curl on the right is because the negative was not held flat, and also, shot on my camera phone - was just to excited to get it digitised and to invert and get on with it. Do not have a wet darkroom yet, for printing, unfortunately. Image inverted, dodged and burnt et al in the digital darkroom from then on, in Affinity Photo.
Oh, the joys of analogue photography, and the mesmerising large format, and wonderful Caffenol! :)
Other Technical Details:
Shot on a Sinar F2, with a 115mm/1:6.8 Sinaron W at f32. I think I had also held an Orange Cokin P filter in front of the lens. My first time with this Caffenol Brew and stand development as well. (Albeit, I do not recollect the shutter speed anymore – had logged it into the iPhone Light Meter App, but don't seem to find a way to bring it up... :-/ Perhaps it was something like 3 sec, if I am not wrong, I would guess.)
