Got myself a "new" old camera on a flea market in Stockholm during my holiday: a Franka Solida II with Ennagon lens in reasonable condition.

This shot was handheld in low light, f4 and 1/50 sec if I remember well.

Darkroom print on expired Agfa Brovira grade 1, slightly toned in selenium and sepia.

Monochrome - toned Selenium with one of Dave Striker's Gradient maps.

Close-up/Macro using a 60mm (equiv. 120mm) with 26mm (16mm + 10mm) Extension Tubes. I found I couldn't get the depth-of-field using a 30mm Macro lens. The extra camera-to-subject distance required with the longer lens gave a better depth-of-field.

Speedlight with 16" softbox.

Leica M9 Mono 35mm Color Skopar. Interneg onto Ilford Art 300 Easylith 25+25+950 and a bit of selenium to finish off.

I don´t know why, Amidol prints are particularly susceptible for every kind of toning.

A selenium toned version of a picture I posted last year. The field got a little too dark, but I like the ice like effect on the trees in the background.

Happy New Year!

And another one: an older negative, printed only now!

I've found this one a bit difficult to print so that it hits my vision for it just right. After quite a few different prints, I ended up with this one and love it a lot. Especially the softness and creamy tone, pure eye candy.

Never before have I used a two bath lith process but I recently read quite a bit about it and decided to try it for myself with this print. To be honest, I couldn't tell you why I mixed my 2nd developer like I did, I was just told it would make sense that way ;)

As was expected, the paper lost its nice and strong warm color in the second developer but I managed to get this nice creamy tone still.
