Bleak bleached winter hills... Looking toward the sea is misleading, emerald patches of improved grazing, the vivid salt marsh of the foreshore, and the colourful reflective sea itself catch the eye. Turn inland and there is only an ocean of bleached vegetation, heather, bog cotton, deer grass, bog asphodel and sundews, rippling in the wind.
West coast, Scotland.
I think at this time of day the branches look better in black and white so i will be converting them. Temperatures were around 27C (80.6F). A stiff breeze was blowing - but it felt just like the hairdryer on warm. I intend to go at a different time, but this trip gave us a chance to look around...

I returned to this (still) abandoned house in Long Valley and gave it the bleached look in Photoshop.
bleached back of fuji fp100c that was originally made in a 5x4 zero image pinhole camera. contact printed under overhead light for 14 minutes. it wasn't that dense a neg but the paper I was printing on is about 60 years old and has lost so much sensitivity. the texture is incredible and I'll be sad when this box is finished.
ACTUAL FILM BLEACH BYPASS NOT DIGITAL
This bleach bypass result although difficult to scan is as good or superior to the normal process.
Shot with voigtlander Bessa T and testing cheap toy lens, 32mm fixed focus f/10, C41 bleach bypass test.
Old Fuji 100 12 exposure. Shot at ISO 100. Could have underexposed a bit. Developed in Fuji CN-16 N1-MV developer.
Imagine 3:15 minutes in developer and 8 minutes fix. All done. Well sorta. I borrowed this process from theoldcameraguy youtu.be/YRHdmLDbGec
Presoak 100f degrees for 3 min
C41 at 38C for 3:15

recommended underexposure 1 to 2 stops your mileage may vary, these were not underexposed.
Scanning: These were dense and I expected trouble in the Canon 9000F. I was right. Vuescan could pull up the images but they were very speckled and mottled. I scanned them anyway as color negatives at 4800 DPI and 48 Bit RGB. I was expecting disappointment but here are the results.
The raw scans were black and in photoshop I had to boost the exposure and the brightness to 100% each to get the image. I adjusted the colors in the histograms where necessary and opened the images. Usually they were somewhat washed but there was color. Allowing for auto levels, auto contrast, and auto colors, usually gave great results.
Taken at Milang on Lake Alexandrina.
When I was young, we would stay here with my Uncle, Aunty and cousins over Easter. It was a fantastic spot to swim, jump from the jetty (not this one) and basically be active all day with a BBQ at night. Good memories.
The photo looks like I've turned up the brightness because the end of the jetty is lit up. But I actually had to tone it down. All the seagull droppings have bleached the end of the jetty white!

... forgot that I had been exposing for macro before taking this which was much darker ... hence it was blown way out. My daughter said to keep it, as she likes bleached high key captures.
This looks like it was passed through the bleached process alright :)
Happy Sliders Sunday (by mistake)
