A few weeks ago I posted The Doors of Perception. I thought it was a good result overall but I wasn't entirely satisfied with it.
This is a shot from another angle and a bit darker. I wanted to emphasize the rays of light breaking through the pilings to better visualize the famous quote from Aldous Huxley:
''If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern."

A monochrome / selenium tone version of this wonderful wreck on the island of Amorgos in the Greek Cyclades. Personally, I think I prefer this over the HDR version posted earlier

Roland accompanied his friend, Trenton, on his photoshoot with me. He had no intention of being photographed. I insisted on taking a few shots of him. This is one of them.

The folding Zeiss Contessa 35 (model 533/24) was designed by Hubert Nerwin and made in Stuttgart during the effort to rebuild the Zeiss Ikon name after WWII. Produced between 1953-1955 Nerwin included elements from his Super Ikonta's design and specially the distinctive extra lens for the coupled rangefinder.
The camera was superbly made in every respect and was equipped with a coated f2.8 45mm Zeiss Optron Tessar lens, 9 speed Synchro Compur shutter, uncoupled Selenium exposure meter, MX flash synchronisation and coupled rangefinder. The latter having a prism rather than the usual mirror.
Above all was the high quality excellence of everything coupled with a very distinctive appearance.

Selenium by Jon Gregory. Two block, three colour reduction woodcut on paper (6x6ins). Hand printed and burnished with an old tin of mints and a teaspoon. Lined up with a lot of luck and a little bit of brandy to steady the old nerves.
I put this together to show the various stages that went into my Selenium print. Two blocks were used, the first to give the bright orange background (left column) and the second to do both the light (middle column) and dark (right column) grey layers. I'd originally planned to do a black outline layer as well but didn't think it was needed once I'd done the dark grey.
It shows an old-fashioned camera fitted with a selenium cell lightmeter. The big swirl represents light passing through the meter, but I'm sure you worked that out already. I printed the background in a nifty shade of violently bright orange because I like orange.

I'm guessing here, I think this is a Samoca 28 of some sort.
Anyone with specific information, please advise.
It is a rangefinder camera
It has a built in selenium meter

Fully functional, and I've got the original case for it as well

Lego bad guy and his motor. Processed with a selenium film effect using Alienskin Exposure. Lit using Fibre optic strobes.
studio work
This print was made by weaving 20 individual 5"x48" strips of Ilford RC photosensitive darkroom paper. I first assemble the paper (under a darkroom safelight) in a weaved pattern to the size of 4ft.x4ft. & then project my negative into the paper as it hangs on the wall. Then I bring the print to the studio floor and apply developer & fixer. After it's done with the chemicals I then take it outside and wash it with a garden hose. After it's dried, I then used photo bleach, sepia, selenium, stains, & inks.

Profite
Si aujourd'hui
Tu peux voir,
Tu peux sentir,
Tu peux marcher,
Tu peux aimer,
Profite
Car après
Il y a la mort.

Etre grand
J'ai appris à mes dépends
Qu'il faut toujours prendre son temps
Surtout ne pas se ronger les sangs,
Ce que font beaucoup de gens.
Je ne sais pas ce que je ressens
Moi qui était un être aimant
Je déambule comme un enfant
Qui a perdu tous ses parents.
Je pense qu'il faut être vivant
Pour profiter des bons moments.
Ne pas attendre trop longtemps
Pour aménager des bons instants.
Alors éviter tous les tourments,
Accepter sans être dépendant
Tout le passé et le présent,
Et là tu deviendras grand.

In experimenting with these lith prints, I've made my first darkroom prints in about 8 years. It's been a reminder that watching a print develop under the safelight is one of the real satisfactions of photography.
