There's a magic in the air when the sun shines on yellow golden leaves, what a great artist is mother nature.
C'e della maggia nell'aria quando il grande artista "madre natura" fa le sue arte.

Looking at the difference in performance of Adox CHS 100 II compared to Kodak TMY, which I used the previous day for a similar photograph: flic.kr/p/2rdyiNw
CHS 100 II has a more "graphic" look to it: more contrast, a more abrupt transition from the dark shadow to the near-white tones. But it separates all of the values beautifully and has great acutance (Acutance measures how abruptly tonal transitions occur at the boundaries between different areas of an image, like where a dark object meets a lighter background. It describes perceived sharpness due to edge effects, not actual sharpness).
Rolleiflex 2.8E Planar
CHS 100 II rated at 25 ASA (with medium yellow filter) and developed in Thornton 2-Bath: 4.5 + 4.5 minutes.
Ever since Christmas when I was gifted a Horizon S3 Pro by my husband, I have wanted to make this photograph.
A one second exposure at f4, with Kodak Tmax 100 film, developed with Xtol 1:1 for 9.5 minutes.
I enjoy photographing the 4 or 5 riverbank locations within a few minutes walk of the house, every year. I get to witness subtle (and sometimes not so subtle) changes in the bank, the trees, and the flotsam that comes and goes each year. This year ,the changes are very subtle. Compare this with my recently posted September 2024 version: flic.kr/p/2rasXcZ
This time, I used my Medalist II with Kodak TMY film, developed with Xtol 1:1 for 8 minutes, which gave me slightly underdeveloped negs. Next time, 11 or 12 minutes.
Apparently I had not developed all of the film from this session last September - I found a few undeveloped sheets in the darkroom, so I processed them. It looks like I published a vertical crop of this scene, but not this one.
Photographed with Ilford Delta 100, rated at 50 ASA and developed in PMK Pyro.
Camera: Intrepid 5x7 with the 8.5" Kodak Commercial Ektar lens. About 10 seconds exposure at f22
We walked here and viewed multiple reg trees that are falling away yet some remain dark trees.
Large trees and lovely clouds up in the sky.
I especially like the "lightning strike" of a bare branch that interrupts the base of the trunk.
Photographed on Kodak Tmax 100 film and the Medalist II camera, with a yellow filter on the lens.
Developed in Xtol 1:1 for 9.5 minutes.
The Ektar lens on the Medalist is capable of resolving a remarkable amount of detail.
Nature can give us some amazing scenes, and this sky silhoueted against the dark evergreen trees was just so exceptional and stunning in it's colour variations. An amazing view taken from my balcony one evening. These Evergreen trees are in Stanley Park wich I can see from my balcony!
Photographed on 8x10 Ilford Delta 100, at 50 ASA, developed in PMK (Pyro).
Camera used: Intrepid 8x10 and f4.5 Kodak Ektar lens. 6 seconds exposure at f22.
A different version of the foggy road view published earlier today.
Adox CHS 100 II, rated at 40 ASA and developed with the Thornton 2-bath developer (4.5 + 4.5)
This film has excellent clarity/acutance and a beautiful tonal scale when exposed at 50 ASA or less. The 2-bath developer process works well with it. It's a bit grainy for a 100 ASA film, but I feel no need to compare it to tabular/core shell type films with finer grain for their speed class.
Hasselblad 500 C/M and 80mm Planar lens.
Technical: Photographed on Ilford Delta 100, @50 ASA, developed in PMK (Pyro) 1.5:2:100, 15 minutes.
Deardorff 8x10 with the Wollensak Verito 11.5", at "f8".
Experimenting with film/developer options.
This is Kodak Tri-X 120, exposed at 200 ASA and developed in Barry Thornton's Divided Developer, a variation on the Divided D-23 developer. The camera used was the Voiogtlander Perkeo II, with exposures in the 3-10 second range at f11.5
Conclusion: the divided developer did a good job at giving a balanced negative - not too contrasty, decent shadow information, good separation of values, and restrained high values. There seems to be a kind of flatness in the middle tones, and I'm not sure if the film/developer combo is to blame or not. Regardless, this is a pretty good result. Sharpness and grain character is good for Tri-X, handled well by the Thornton developer.

in those first seconds after waking, everything feels possible. the city still wrapped in velvet shadows, silent and slow. only the towers remember that time never sleeps. a soundless ringing for those who don’t need to check the hour. sevilla breathes softly. and somewhere above, the bells count minutes no one needs.

The pandemic squashed my desire to explore off the farm, so I rarely leave the property. I literally don't want to encounter other people anymore. (I could quote Laurie Anderson when she talks about life looking better on TV cause it "tones it down")
And so I am stuck. Physically, creatively, emotionally. Stuck. But my urge to isolate rules above all. Surely this is depression??
So I photograph the same things again and again, just to be "doing/making". I've photographed this tree every year for 7 years. Surely it has nothing left to offer?? I polish this same pebble and tell myself it's going to be better every time - but it's not - it's just repetitive. I wasn't even going to publish this. Oh well, wtf.
Zeiss Super Ikonta with Kodak Tri-X, rated at 125 with a medium yellow filter. Film processed in Thornton 2-bath.
I got out the old Rolleiflex MX (f3.5 Tessar, 1951) today and loaded it with Ilford Delta 100. I developed it in Adox FX-39. 1:19 for 14 minutes. That little Tessar is a very good performer. I ought to use the Rolleiflex more often.
Because this was really inexpensive (a friend sold it to me for $70 USD) I tend to neglect it, which is a mistake. It has its original focusing screen in it, and I ought to replace it, since it’s really dark and difficult to see in anything less than bright sunlight. Any tips on how to buy and install a better view screen?
I've recently done some work using Kodak branded Xtol again, after avoiding it for 5+ years. (I would NOT buy any chemistry made by Sino Promise) However, I am finding the developing times listed for TMX (and TMY) are giving me underdeveloped negatives, it seems. So I have been adjusting times by adding another 20-25% time to get better negs.
This is a test to determine development time for TMX 100 rated at 50 ASA. Listed time for Xtol 1:1 is 9.5 minutes, but this image is from a negative developed for 12 minutes, which is much better.
Camera: Minolta Autocord.
the sun falls, slow and heavy. the sky burns, the sea stays quiet. two figures pass under the tree, their steps swallowed by the dusk. no words, just silhouettes, caught between light and night.

Compare this photo with a similar one made moments later, on Ilford Ortho Plus film (next image).
Photographed on 8x10 inch Ilford Delta 100 film, using my Industar-37 lens on the Intrepid 8x10 camera. Film processed in PMK Pyro, 1:2:100 for 13 minutes.
The Industar-37 is a 300mm Tessar type lens in a barrel (no shutter), and it’s really a very good lens, as most Tessars should be.
Exposure was 9 seconds at f22
This is a very difficult location on the Marys River to access. Lots of wading through log strewn muddy waters, climbing over large dead trees and clinging to steep banks to navigate to one of only two places shallow enough that I can site a tripod. Some days I wonder what possesses me to do this!
Are they or aren't they? Everyone wants to know!!
But alas, they give no comment.

Compare this photo with a similar one made moments earlier, on Ilford Delta 100 film (previous image). In spite of being an orthochromatic film, the results just aren't that different from the Delta 100.
