It used to be a pub. The Sun Inn offered everything the traveller needed including accommodation and a beer garden behind the building. These days, pubs are being converted into residential homes and developers make sure that the yard behind is turned into accommodation too, rental or other.

A 691 acre state park originally called Westbrook, was designed by noted landscape architect Frederick Law Olmstead while the mansion in the Tudor style was created by Charles C. Haight all for William Bayard Cutting, an attorney, financier, real estate developer and sugar beet refiner, in 1886.
This part of the house faces the Connetquat River which empties into Nicoll Bay and finally the Great South Bay of Long Island.

The Bessemer process is a steel production method that is no longer used today. It is named after its developer Henry Bessemer, who developed it in England and patented it in 1856.
In the so-called Bessemer bulb, a cylindrical refractory vessel, air is blown through the very carbon-rich pig iron melted in the blast furnace. The carbon and other elements burn to form carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and other oxides. As a result, the temperature of the molten metal rises far above the melting temperature of the pig iron of 1,150 °C at least to that of the steel, which can be up to around 1,550 °C. When the carbon content in the iron has fallen below a certain value, steel has been produced from the pig iron. Experts can tell when the composition corresponds to the desired one by the color of the flame at the exit of the Bessemer bulb.
The Bessemer bulb is a so-called bottom-blowing converter. For the Bessemer method to work in the acidic process, the pig iron must be low in phosphorus and sulphur. Pig iron with this impurity was processed into steel in the Thomas bulb.

HAPPY EARTH DAY!
Shakespeare's Globe is a reconstruction of the Globe Theatre, an Elizabethan playhouse first built in 1599 for which William Shakespeare wrote his plays. Like the original, it is located on the south bank of the River Thames, in Southwark, London. The reconstruction was completed in 1997 and while concentrating on Shakespeare's work also hosts a variety of other theatrical productions. Part of the Globe's complex also hosts the Sam Wanamaker Playhouse for smaller, indoor productions, in a setting which also recalls the period.

The camera I used was the tiny Minox B. Not the best camera for night-photography for sure. Exposure time was half a second. And how to keep a tiny camera like this Minox steady for half a second?
I like the result however! It looks like a surrealistic, impressionist painting

The sodium acetate developer produces the coolest image tone in Kallitype.
One or the other user may well have doubts about this. If the results are not as cool as expected, this is not due to the developer but to the workflow. A really cool tone is only maintained if the print does not come into contact with tap water before fixing. If the print is rinsed with tap water after the developer or the clearing bath, the image tone will be significantly warmer. It is not a question of which shade is perceived as more pleasant, but rather an advantage to know how to control the colourfulness.
For toning before fixing (platinum, palladium, gold), a rinse cycle is advisable in order not to change the property of the toner by introduced acid. For all tonings after fixing, a cooler initial print has the advantage of a higher maximum blackening. This is not decisive for successful toning, but differences in hue and saturation become apparent.

Since 2019, FPP has been releasing a series of B&W Monster films. To date they have: Dracula (64 ISO), Wolfman (100 ISO), Frankenstein (200 ISO), and TODAY they're adding one more. Introducing the Mummy, a 400 ISO B&W panchromatic film.
To make this announcement even more exciting, FPP is offering this film in: 8mm, 16mm (double perf), 35mm, 120, 620, 4x5", AND 8x10" sizes. As an 8x10 shooter, I'm incredibly excited to be a part of this launch and share with you some of my initial test results.

Beginners in the technique of Kallitype often ask which developer they should choose.
Only a comparison of colour and tonal values with identical exposure time. To achieve the same level of blackness with the acetate developer, the exposure time would have to be slightly longer.
Here you can see how early car manufacturers used lead (instead of Bondo) to fill in roof joints. Notice how sanding (file) marks are still present in the lead. More importantly, just how thick the early paint jobs had to be to cover these scratches up.

Love to take the train and to end up in Winter Park. So refreshing to see people and to walk around so many trees. Is a city with an Urban Forest Management Plan. Also, there are benches in every corner. In my walk around the town, always stop at a church that is open to the public.
(Spanish : Cada vez que tengo deseos de caminar en una ciudad, tomo el tren y termino en Winter Park. Que refrescante ver los rostros y poder caminar por una ciudad donde tiene tantos arboles y bancos para sentarse. En mi vuelta por la ciudad siempre me detengo en una iglesia que esta abierta para el publico).

Every time I come to San Francisco, there is some kind of smart-ass billboard along the highway ... "ask your developer," it says.
Ask her what? Whether Twilio is better than some other provider? Whether the cloud is here to stay? Who comes up with these crazy signs?
Fortunately, it doesn't matter very much ... by the time I come back again, this billboard will have been replaced by something else just as mysterious.

************************
In early November 2015, I flew from New York to San Francisco to take a weekend street-photography workshop under the tutelage of Eric Kim. As you might expect, I took gazillions of photos; but not all of them were specifically associated with the workshop itself. On the way out to San Francisco, I took a bunch of pictures with my iPhone; and during the weekend, I took a number of photos that had little or nothing to do with street-photography per se.
I’ll upload the photos in dribs and drabs during the next several days, and let you decide which ones are sufficiently interesting to warrant a second look…
I've tested 9 programs for the purpose of processing challenging nightscapes and for preparing images for time-lapses.
