Reclaimed negative from a (rather overexposed) Fuji FP100C45 instant print, which involves bleaching off the backing and (carefully) washing the developer off the front. Think I'm getting a bit more detail out of the negative than out of the print. Interesting result, look forward to treating some more.
First month complete.
Fuji Fp100c negatives that have been bleached, some more successfully than others. Negatives scanned using iPad and iPhone as I don't have a flatbed scanner for this size negative. Hello Photo app used for scans, snapseed and photoshop express apps used for cropping and flipping of negs.
#211 in my photo-a-day project.
Another 'what on earth can I find to photograph?' shot. Ceiling lights in the living room, taken with cameraphone in negative mode (and mood!).
The original boxes that I have to process of glass plate negatives and lantern slides from my Great-Uncle Stanley's surviving collection. I think they all date from before the First World War.
At last, I'm done scanning all of my old 35mm negatives with the Nikon Coolscan. Just five and a half years after "going digital". And by that I don't mean shooting with a digital camera which I started doing at about the same time, but scanning over two thousand frames as a way to get into the digital flow, which I ended up doing twice because the first time the results just didn't cut it for me. And that's not including the more than two thousand frames scanned since then. In fact I shot more film in the five plus years since "going digital" than in the previous thirty, thanks to the digital scanner and post-processing possibilities !!
So here's a tribute to some old Kodacolor film captured with the latest digital Kodak Easyshare Max/Z990.
Messing around with scanning some Holga negatives. Obviously, my scanner is very linty. There was more I was planning on trying with this, but never got around to it. I kinda like it, though.
I didn't make this or the positive in my proper darkroom, but it's pretty incredible what you can get done in an attic with a flashlight, tweezers, and a red candy wrapper.
I've invented a self-method which can be useful to make negatives coloured using PS.. This one was taken two years ago, but every time I try to use my own method I get a different effect. I wish I lived in another place, cause here it's so fucking expensive to be an analogue lover.. but I'll work on thinking about how to improve this self-method, I swear.
By the way, she's a friend, a good one (:
First attempt at shooting smoke. Here's my ghetto setup:
1. Draped a black t-shirt over one of my HD LCD monitors.
2. Set the camera to manual focus, f/16, self-timer.
3. Placed smoking tissue paper in a pie tin.
4. When the shutter tripped, I manually triggered the flash positioned to the right of the smoke with the "test" button.
This is one of the red/blue smoke images with the colors inverted for a negative effect.

We slept last night in the new double bed in Cynthia’s ‘winter bedroom’. Did not sleep the best due to soft mattress. Breakfasted on pancakes and went for a drive around outer Belvidere. Came home to roast lamb and a bean dish which was interesting. Headed off after dinner first to the Delaware Gap, then up the border on the Penn side and river to Dingman’s Ferry, through Delaware State Forest where during the season they shoot deer. Saw a couple of falls including Childs Falls. Came back via East Stroudsburg and called on Mrs Ott’s sister whose husband has just run off with a Chinese alien after 30 odd years. She has a ’64 Thunderbird convertible. She showed it to us. She is quite proud. It needs work. Peter was interested. Also met a Mr and Mrs George Wilson, more friends who have this great timber house with a great view which they are going to sell after 20 years and retire to a new house in town.
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.
My wife found an old negative in a book and wondered if it was her grandfather. Since I was bored with the bad weather, I held the negative up to a bright window and snapped a shot..Brought it into Photoshop and hit invert and lo and behold it is her grandfather working at the bakery circa 1910. He is second from the left. He worked as a baker till in his 90's. He would be 119 years old now.. Oop's You can see the window screen through the negative..Oh well...
