Looking back down the path, with Gibson Knott at the end of the ridge, and Helm Crag beyond it. Seat Sandal's summit is lost in the clouds and so is Fairfield behind it.

From Wikipedia:
The Palace of Westminster is the meeting place of the Parliament of the United Kingdom and is located in London, England. It is commonly called the Houses of Parliament after the House of Commons and the House of Lords, the two legislative chambers which occupy the building. The palace has been a Grade I listed building since 1970 and part of a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1987.
The site of the current palace may have been used by Cnut during his reign from 1016 to 1035, and from c. 1045 – c. 1050 Edward the Confessor built a palace and the first Westminster Abbey. The oldest surviving part of the palace is Westminster Hall, which dates from the reign of William II (r. 1087–1100).
The building was originally constructed in the eleventh century as a royal palace and was the primary residence of the kings of England until 1512, when a fire destroyed the royal apartments. The monarch moved to the adjacent Palace of Whitehall, but the remainder of the palace continued to serve as the home of the Parliament of England, which had met there since the 13th century. In 1834 a second, larger fire destroyed the majority of the palace, but Westminster Hall was saved and incorporated into the replacement building.
The competition to design the new palace was won by the architect Charles Barry, who chose a Gothic Revival style for the building. Construction started in 1840 and lasted for 30 years, suffering delays, cost overruns, and the deaths of Barry and his assistant, Augustus Pugin. The palace contains chambers for the House of Commons, House of Lords, and the monarch, and has a floor area of 112,476 m2 (1,210,680 sq ft). Extensive repairs had to be made after the Second World War, including rebuilding the destroyed Commons chamber. Despite further conservation work having been carried out since, the palace is in urgent need of major repairs.
From www.bbc.com/travel/article/20200312-why-is-the-palace-of-...:
In 2012, the Houses of Commons and Lords commissioned a study on the condition of the palace, which indicated the need for major restoration work. The current sewage system was installed in 1888; there are more than 1,000 areas that contain asbestos; the chambers are not wheelchair accessible; and even rodents populate the place. Part of the building’s mechanical and electrical systems were installed after World War Two and should have been replaced in the 1980s but were not. Over the years, steam, gas and water services were built on top of each other and next to high-voltage electrical wires. And about 321km of telephone, broadcasting and sound wires need to be upgraded.
The Anston limestone used in the original construction, which was cheap and ideal for carving, began to quickly decay in the 19th Century and was only partially restored in the 1980s and ‘90s. On top of all of that, Barry and Pugin used combustible materials to decorate the palace’s interiors.

Kahuna peers into the lowering rays of the setting sun as he scouts the dirt walkway along Vine St., two houses away. The pair of properties between my house and Vine are both surrounded by chain-link fence, as mine is, so Kahuna can watch any activity along Vine through the fences—people walking their dogs after work, and the occasional horse and rider. He keeps pretty good tabs on the neighborhood :-)

I went to Anglesey Abbey to finish off a test roll in the Autocord, and also to capture the main building with the wildflower meadow in the foreground. The meadow and weather were great for capturing it, but unfortunately it was clad in ugly scaffolding, typical! But still, there are other views and details to capture here, including the mill, and soon wished I’d brought some more rolls of film.

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.

The Red color is a bane for CMOS sensors, always blows out in the SOOC JPEGs.
Best shoot in RAW and deal with the Red channel by manipulating the Tone Curve. Getting a little better with this, all done via Olympus' RAW developer "Olympus Viewer 3".

Another one of the Bessa Skopar images taken with Bergger Pancro 400, developed by 2 bath Thornton technique.
This is a technical test: experimenting with Bergger Pancro 400, developed in the Thornton 2-Bath developer to see if it's a suitable combination.
Bath A; 13 minutes
Bath B: 5 minutes.
The Bath A went much longer than typical because Pancro 400 requires significantly longer development times than most other films. This 13 + 5 time gave me very good overall density, but a bit excessive contrast, with the brightest values going a bit too far, I think. Next time I would drop the Bath A time to 10 minutes.
In all, a good experiment and reasonable results.
This was using the pre-WW2 Voigtlanger Bessa: 1/2 second at f16 with a medium yellow filter. Apertures larger than f11 deliver rather poor results with this f3.5 Skopar, unless you like the "toy camera" look in your work.

A coworker and I went to see the Valley of Fire State Park for an afternoon. The park is a 1h drive north-east of Las Vegas, Nevada. He is our star developer, who is very productive, and comes up with creative ideas. I took this shot with his Xiaomi Redmi 5 mobile phone.
I processed a photographic and a paintery HDR photo from a single mobile phone exposure, merged them selectively, and carefully adjusted the color balance and curves. I welcome and appreciate constructive feedback.

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.

Something different! Being the experimental type I tend to follow no rules with B&W developing and never have any issues. With colour however i've tried to go by the book.. well until today.
I don't like wasting things and when you by a 5L C41 Tetanol kit you get 100ml of each chemical left if you make 2x 1L batches. Today I decided to add some open but recent 100ml developer to some open from 2018 developer and try to develop some film. I didn't mind Lomo / wacky colours as standard correct colours can often be quite boring. I developed 1 roll as I was not sure if I would get anything and my times and temps were "common sense" and not by the book. I was delighted to see photos on the first roll, which dates back to 2016! so I developed 5 more rolls.

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…
