I love my Skudden - but they are so shy and absolutely refused to be photographed. ... But hey - I'm patient!

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.

Vor 250 Jahren begann man hier in Hürth damit Braunkohle abzubauen. Anfangs wurde diese Kohle ausschließlich zum Heizen benutzt. Man mischte die zerkleinerte Kohle mit Wasser zu einem Brei, preßte diesen in eine Form und ließ ihn trocknen. Die Geburtsstunde des Briketts, oder wie man in dieser Gegend sagt, des Klüttens. Das erste Klüttenwerk (von 1884) lag in unmittelbarer Nähe der Grube in Alt-Hürth. Als diese Grube ausgekohlt war, wurde die Kohle aus anderen Ortsteilen mittels einer Seilbahn hierher transportiert. Der Straßennahme „Klüttenweg“ erinnert an diese Seilbahn. Der rekultivierte Bereich der ersten Grube ist heute das Landschaftsschutzgebiet Hürtherberg, das ca. 300 Meter vor meiner Haustür liegt.
Lignite mining began here in Hürth 250 years ago. Initially, this coal was used exclusively for heating. The crushed coal was mixed with water to make a pulp, pressed into a mould and left to dry. This was the birth of the briquette, or as we say in these parts, ‘Klütten’. The first briquette plant (from 1884) was located in the immediate neighbourhood of the mine in Alt-Hürth. When this mine was exhausted, the coal was transported here from other parts of the town by cable car. The street name ‘Klüttenweg’ is a reminder of this cable railway. The recultivated area of the first mine is now the Hürtherberg nature reserve, which is about 300 metres from my front door.

A dull, hazy January day near the river turned out to be more than I had hoped for - the sun shone through the haze and made everything more interesting.
Taken with ancient Pentax SFXn film camera and smc Pentax-FA 70–200mm F4–5.6 PowerZoom telephoto lens, on a short roll of AgfaPhoto APX 400 film. Developed in Adox FX-39 II, 1+9 dilution at 22°C.
Scanned with Plustek OpticFilm 8100 film scanner, using VueScan.
Diluted FX-39 is a one-shot developer, it can be used only once. But I couldn't throw it away, those 40 ml of developer looked perfectly fine, I just had to try to develop another roll. I even wrote a blog post about reusing one-shot developers, 📖 take a look here!

Kallitype
Hahnemühle Platinum Rag, Potassium Citrate developer, ATS alkaline fixer:
untoned
MT10 Gold toner
MT3 Vario toner (thiourea)
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.
This is a bulk gas carrier and guess what. That is a gas power station in the backround

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…

In PORTO and throughout Portugal are buildings like this-
prime location(s) along the Douro River,
close to other Investment opportunities,
but- because of layers of burdensome Bureaucratic B.S.-
these buildings- sit, undeveloped while housing and especially affordable housing remains a scarcity here,
as in many parts of developed world today.
