The influence of developers to the gold toning result. In this case Potassium citrate vs. Sodium citrate. Both are toned 5 minutes prior to fixing. Paper COT-320, toner MT10 Thiourea-gold toner.
On the left Potassium citrate and on the right Sodium citrate.
It used to be a pub. The Sun Inn offered everything the traveller needed including accommodation and a beer garden behind the building. These days, pubs are being converted into residential homes and developers make sure that the yard behind is turned into accommodation too, rental or other.

Der erste Rollfilm entwickelt und fixiert im Ars Imago Monobath Entwickler.

My first 120 film developed and fixed in Ars Imago Monobath Developer/Fixer combination.
Latergram is my answer to Instagram - i expose a film and put it away for some time without developing it.
The sodium acetate developer produces the coolest image tone in Kallitype.
One or the other user may well have doubts about this. If the results are not as cool as expected, this is not due to the developer but to the workflow. A really cool tone is only maintained if the print does not come into contact with tap water before fixing. If the print is rinsed with tap water after the developer or the clearing bath, the image tone will be significantly warmer. It is not a question of which shade is perceived as more pleasant, but rather an advantage to know how to control the colourfulness.
For toning before fixing (platinum, palladium, gold), a rinse cycle is advisable in order not to change the property of the toner by introduced acid. For all tonings after fixing, a cooler initial print has the advantage of a higher maximum blackening. This is not decisive for successful toning, but differences in hue and saturation become apparent.

Beginners in the technique of Kallitype often ask which developer they should choose.
Only a comparison of colour and tonal values with identical exposure time. To achieve the same level of blackness with the acetate developer, the exposure time would have to be slightly longer.

Every time I come to San Francisco, there is some kind of smart-ass billboard along the highway ... "ask your developer," it says.
Ask her what? Whether Twilio is better than some other provider? Whether the cloud is here to stay? Who comes up with these crazy signs?
Fortunately, it doesn't matter very much ... by the time I come back again, this billboard will have been replaced by something else just as mysterious.
Note: I chose this as my "photo of the day" for Nov 21, 2015

In early November 2015, I flew from New York to San Francisco to take a weekend street-photography workshop under the tutelage of Eric Kim. As you might expect, I took gazillions of photos; but not all of them were specifically associated with the workshop itself. On the way out to San Francisco, I took a bunch of pictures with my iPhone; and during the weekend, I took a number of photos that had little or nothing to do with street-photography per se.
I’ll upload the photos in dribs and drabs during the next several days, and let you decide which ones are sufficiently interesting to warrant a second look…

First shots with my new 12mm lens, at the Old Smithville Burying Ground in Southport, NC. Happy to report excellent performance in infrared (at least on this APS-C sensor; it is a full-frame lens), which wan't so much the case with its 20mm shift-lens stablemate.

My plans around Watford rapidly changed when I visited Cassiobury Park and discovered they were in the process of moving a few dinosaurs around. You know how it goes.
This was a grab shot through the car window before I parked up properly and shows a Triceratops, or at least a Homo sapiens interpretation of it, being transported in the park.
I now know that it forms part of 'Jurassic Encounters' which consists of around 50 automated dinosaurs that move their jaw and limbs and growl - it lasts from 2nd to 18th April 2022.
Despite the event name, the Triceratops did not roam the planet in the Jurassic era, coming much later in the Late Cretaceous period, and only existed about two million years prior to the Mass Extinction.

Pinhole image on Fuji Provia 100 film. The developer was expired Tetenal E-6, and images came out vague, almost non-existant. I managed to dig out some tones with my scanner.
Shot with my converted 6x6 "Pinhof" camera on Woldwide Pinhole Photography day of 2021.
These arrived today and I'm excited!
Found a new "local" place for film goodies; it's on Vancouver Island, but one-day delivery to Metro Vancouver. I ordered some Blazinal, my go to developer for B&W; a new B&W developer called Black/White & Green; and some iso 100 Lomography in 120 format.
Blazinal is used exactly the same as Rodinal. I don't know if it's the same formula, just re-packaged, but it's very easy to use and reliable, and the bottle I'm still using was opened June 6, 2021, so it has good shelf life.
I'm very interested to use this Black/White & Green developer. It's made in Canada by Flic Film, and described as having long shelf-life and to give sharp negatives with fine grain. Apparently, it's not as sharp as Rodinal and it gives a less contrasty negative. For me however, the only downside, from what I've read, is that it takes longer to work its magic; Ilford HP5+ for example, takes 15.25 minutes at the 1:49 instructed dilution at 20°C. In Blazinal (Rodinal), it takes 6 minutes in 1:25 dilution at 20°C. I'll try B/W&G this weekend and see!
This picture was developed with E6 chemistry that had been sitting out at room temperature since February. Quite the vintage look even though this is fresh Provia 100F slide film.

"悲惨な現実を前にしても云おう。
波の音は、さざ波のような調べでないかもしれない。荒れ狂う鉛色の波の音かもしれない。
時に、孤独を直視せよ。
海原の前に一人立て。自分の夢が何であるか。海に向かって問え。
青春とは、孤独を直視することなのだ。直視の自由を得ることなのだ。大学に行くということの豊潤さを、自由の時に変えるのだ。自己が管理する時間を、ダイナミックに手中におさめよ。流れに任せて、時間の空費にうつつを抜かすな。
いかなる困難に出会おうとも、自己を直視すること以外に道はない。
いかに悲しみの涙の淵に沈もうとも、それを直視することの他に我々にすべはない。
海を見つめ、大海に出よ。
嵐にたけり狂っていても海に出よ。"

Fair in Alcalá, Spain.
October 2017.
Shot with a Minolta TC-1 35mm film camera, Kodak Tri-X 400 exposed ISO 200, double development:
- Rollei Low Speed (GC 512) 1+4, 13 min. at 24°C then
- Diafine 3min+3min st 24°C
I love the way this film/developers combo copes with extreme exposure latitude while preserving brilliance and luminance.
Scanned at an equivalent 8000 dpi with a stitching/macro setup and resized to about 30 Mpxls, then cropped.
No sharpening or noise reduction applied.

I shoot whole roll of Fomapan 400 (at 1600) in Świnoujście... but surprisingly NOTHING came out. Film was completely blank... and I have no idea what I've done wrong.
Also, this frame is somewhat scratched - I had huge problem with putting this Rollei Retro roll to developer tank.
