Since I am staying inside my house, keeping safe, I thought I'd try my hand at telekinesis after seeing the Netflix series I am Not Okay With This. The teenage star had powers! So do I, it appears, lol! So although I'm feeling a bit dark being stuck inside, at least I can shine a light on my levitational abilities.
Did you know that a color is capable of causing an emotional impact on the people who observe it? Over the years the meaning of colors has evolved and depending on the sociocultural context and other factors such as age or gender, they are capable of evoking one or the other sensations.
Interesting right? How can color affect us so much?
Not only is it capable of creating a psychological response, it can also be even physical. The psychology of color affirms that there are many factors that make it up: universal, cultural, regional, communal and individual.

Founded in 1495 by William Elphinstone, Bishop of Aberdeen and Chancellor of Scotland, the University of Aberdeen is Scotland's third oldest and the UK's fifth oldest university.
William Elphinstone established King's College to train doctors, teachers and clergy for the communities of northern Scotland, and lawyers and administrators to serve the Scottish Crown. Much of the King's College still remains today, as do the traditions which the Bishop began. King's College opened with 36 staff and students, and embraced all the known branches of learning: arts, theology, canon and civil law. In 1497 it was first in the English-speaking world to create a chair of medicine. Elphinstone's college looked outward to Europe and beyond, taking the great European universities of Paris and Bologna as its model. In 1593, a second, Post-Reformation University, was founded in the heart of the New Town of Aberdeen by George Keith, fourth Earl Marischal. King's College and Marischal College were united to form the modern University of Aberdeen in 1860. At first, arts and divinity were taught at King's and law and medicine at Marischal. A separate science faculty - also at Marischal - was established in 1892. All faculties were opened to women in 1892, and in 1894 the first 20 matriculated female students began their studies. Four women graduated in arts in 1898, and by the following year, women made up a quarter of the faculty. Into our Sixth Century: Throughout the 20th century Aberdeen has consistently increased student recruitment, which now stands at 14,000. In recent years picturesque and historic Old Aberdeen, home of Bishop Elphinstone's original foundation, has again become the main campus site. The University has also invested heavily in medical research, where time and again University staff have demonstrated their skills as world leaders in their field. The Institute of Medical Sciences, completed in 2002, was designed to provide state-of-the-art facilities for medical researchers and their students. This was followed in 2007 by the Health Sciences Building. The Foresterhill campus is now one of Europe's major biomedical research centres. The Suttie Centre for Teaching and Learning in Healthcare, a £20m healthcare training facility, opened in 2009. 2012 saw the opening of the £57 million Sir Duncan Rice Library in Old Aberdeen, a great modern building to match the splendour of the University's 500 year old campus. www.abdn.ac.uk www.abdn.ac.uk/ims/
A sculpture inspired by an iconic Aberdeen ship, known as Waterlines, by renowned Scottish artists Marian Leven and Will Maclean, will provide a focal point in the academic square in front of the striking new University library. The sculpture is based on the form of the iconic Aberdeen fast sailing ship Thermopylae. Built by Walter Hood and Co, she launched in 1868 and is considered to be the fastest sailing ship ever constructed. It is made up of two shaped columns, 200mm apart, and is constructed from Kilkenny Blue Limestone.

I'm looking for a new set of tools that utilizes the Foma Liquid Emulsion for making dry plate negatives.
A big part of the technical problem is that the Foma emulsion is very contrasty, so I need to pair it with the right lens and developer to tame the contrast. I bought an old Kodak 6&3/8" Anastigmat lens to try for this work, as these uncoated early lenses are less contrasty. For this experiment I used home made D-23 diluted 1:2 and processed the plate for 3 minutes. In all, this gave me very reasonable contrast that utilized the Foma material quite well. 30 seconds exposure at f8.0
This is a 5x7 plate, by the way. One thing I am going to enjoy is the total lack of anti-halation properties of these home-made plates.
I don't usually post photos from my travels - but I'm going to be off for awhile actually travelling for the first time since this pandemic started - - we decided only 3 days ago so this is the quickest we have ever gotten ourselves organized / packed / and researched out destination - - but it is a cruise which makes it much less stress full.
