This flickr account was set up to store the negatives I buy at ebay, antique shops, flea markets, etc. I scan or photograph the negatives, process them, and then post them here. I enjoy discovering and revealing these images that otherwise might be lost.

This is from a series of old negatives found in an envelope in a box of photographs at a junk store in Dewey, Oklahoma. Some seem related, others do not. Most are damaged in some way and/or poorly executed in the camera and in the dark room. Many are over- exposed.
To try to make some sense of the group, all were scanned so that obscure details might be revealed.
It took a full day, 7.5 hours, to produce these 4 negatives from set-up, through capture to developing. It was far too much fun, but I can't wait until I'm proficient enough that it doesn't take quite so long...
I shot each scene twice, once with ilford FP4 125ISO & once with kodak tri-x pan 320ISO, to start the long journey of testing different films.
Positive/negative space. I was sitting on the edge of the manmade pond and this guy would peck my feet if I ignored him/her too long :-)
Went over ot my grand father's abandoned photo studio last weekend in Ipoh. It's really sad to see the once most popular studio in Ipoh old town to be in such a shabby state. The entire first floor has been closed down for years and only the ground floor is still in business thought just barely surviving.
This shot was taken when Chris was searching through a stock of left over negative plates in one of the drawers. I have never seen such plate before and it's certainly an eye opening experience for me.
My Mom found an old negative, not long after my Grandfather had passed in 2005. She wondered what was on it. After I scanned it, there was no doubt-it was her Father at about age 12.

Wasn't feeling well today, so I took a Covid Test to be sure it wasn't that. Fortunately, it was negative!
