TP&W lashup at Remington IN 8/14/77 heading east led by GP-35's #901 & 902, and including a couple of the new kids.
Continuing with my Experiments using High Contrast Films in my Very Old Dark Brown RODINAL I tested some outdated Kodak TECHNICAL PAN 35mm then loaded a 11/1993 dated 120 into my MAMIYA C220 + 80mm f2.8 'Blue Dot Sekor' and developed in my RODINAL diluted 1+30 for 10 mins @ 20oC. The negatives were fantastically SHARP ! Also, the Contrast was well controlled. I rated film at 25 ASA but I could have used 40 ASA as some negs were a bit dense. I used a MONOPOD to steady camera as I was getting mainly 1/30th second. White Shell Close-up -- all the fine details are there. I used 1/2 second here

Copyright © 2009 - All rights reserved - Interior capture of the main dome and alter apse showing the overwhelming masterpiece artworks that adorn all the walls, vaulted ceilings, archways and columns within St. Vladimir's Cathedral.
Volodymyrsky Cathedral, (Vladimirsky Cathedral, or St. Vladimir's Cathedral) is a remarkable old Byzantine style cathedral in the center of Kyiv. It is one of the city's major landmarks and the mother cathedral of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church - Kyiv Patriarchy, one of two major Ukrainian Orthodox Churches.
In 1852, metropolitan Philaret of Moscow suggested a large cathedral should be built in Kyiv to commemorate the 900th anniversary of the baptism of Kyivan Rus by prince Vladimir (Volodymyr) the Great of Kiev (St. Vladimir). It was completed in total in 1889.
It is the interior artwork in this capture that truly is the splendor of this ancient cathedral. Mosaics were executed by masters from Venice. Frescoes were created under the guidance of Professor A. Prakhov by a group of famous painters: S. Kostenko, V. Kotarbinsky, M. Nesterov, M. Pymonenko, P. Swedomsky, V. Vasnetsov, M. Vrubel, V. Zamyraylo, and others. The painting of the Holy Mother of God by Vasnetsov in the altar apse of the cathedral impresses by its austere beauty, being one of the world masterpieces of fine art.
