I was intrigued by today's Macro Monday theme, Negative Space. So I read a little and then went searching through the photos I took last week while on vacation. I found this one. While not taken specifically for the group and not a macro by a long shot, I felt it really fit the definition of negative space.
However, the real reason for putting it on flickr is to give the next two shots some context. Specifically shot as macros with a definite negative space concept, they were taken 3 or 4 days before the theme was announced.
You might want to check this out on a black background. It's a pretty cool effect.

from a fuji instant negative which I was left with when I bleached off the black backing.
When I did this last year, I decided it was a total mess and it hadn't work out as successfully as others I'd tried. But with the benefit of time, I still think its a mess but I don't hate it as much as I did.
This is a memorial to my polaroid camera ( so many light leaks it can no longer be used outside) which is going to be put into permanent retirement as I use other means to take instant images.
The original image is below in the comments box..
Part of a large batch of vintage negatives I purchased at an estate sale. They seem to be mostly NJ, 1930s and 1940s. If you recognize a building, please comment and let me know where it is.

I found this in one of the many large boxes of mixed photographs. This picture could be taken in Canada or in Europe, I can not remember.
I recently bought a job lot of glass negatives at auction and just spent a few hours photographing them on a lightbox with my dslr then 'developing' them in Photoshop.
A visit to the "Musée de la Civilisation Gallo-Romaine", Lyon, France, on October 27, 2022, accompanied by my SLR Miranda Auto Sensorex EE.
The camera was loaded with a CineStill 400 Dynamic (400D) and configured with the loupe finder X5 and x15 and its normal lens Auto Miranda E 1:1.8 f=50 mm fitting original Miranda 52mm Skylight filter.
The film was exposed for 400 ISO following the readings of the camera (measuring mode "S") or a Minolta Autometer III fitted with a 10° finder. Indoor exposures were hand-held typically at 1/30s and full aperture. The film was then developed using a local C-41 development local service.

After process the film was digitalized using a Sony A7 body and a Minolta Slide Duplicator with a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5.

About the camera :
This camera was initially sold out on March 15, 1972 to a first customer in Abbeville, France, and resold as a second hand by "Photo Ciné Saint Lazare", Paris, France one year later at spring 1973.
The camera was sold to me in March 2022 with the three finders available, three lenses Miranda Auto E, 1:1.8 f=50 mm, 1:2.8 f=28 mm, 1:2.8 f=105 mm all equipped with Miranda Skylight 52 mm filters.
EE stands for "Electric Eye", a system of diaphragm automated by the circuitry operating two CdS cells located behind the reflex mirror and making the photometry independent of the finders. The Miranda EE has two measuring mode : the pondered A (A as "Ambiant") and the S (spot) with the possibility to "memorize" the light value standing the release button at mid course as on modern camera's. the whole photometric system is fully functional on this camera and gives reading similar to a trusted external silicium electronic photometer (Minolta Auto Meter III).
