Paper negative
Self-made film holder still lets in light.
But the effect of it makes the picture almost picturesque.
The thin strip of light only hits the elevations in the paper.

The time is up now.
Days are getting shorter and the darker moments become more strength. For the most people this could ne a mental problem. So it’s important to have periods like this week where people can find some happiness and warmth for their heart like here on the autumn Polaroidweek.
Have a nice week ✌️

The paper negative can give excellent results, but it also requires respect for the light and the right exposure.
I am beginning to suspect that I should go for exposure closer to ISO 8 thant ISO 6.

Baker Nevada just outside of the Great Basin Range National Park. This is a re-edit of a large-format film photo I took several years ago.
Taken August 12, 2024.
Toyo 45G Fujinon A 240mm/9. Rollei Infrared 400 film. Hoya 720nm IR filter - 5 stops exposure compensation. 1/8s F16.
Standard development in Rollei Supergrain developer 1:12 for 7 minutes.
This has been sitting on the desktop for some time - there were technical difficulties developing the negative, but I like the overall look of the image.
There is a substantial anti-halation layer on the Rollei IR film which must be washed off. The exposed film sheet sits on a rack in the developing tank, held in place by tabs around the edges - I suspect that the film was not adequately washed around the edges, and so the border is underdeveloped. In addition, it was a real struggle for my hazy 240mm lens to shoot into the bright blue sky at F16, so there is some faint mottling.
Taken early autumn 2024 on Kodak Portra with the Toyo 5x4 view camera. I need to find a backpack I can fit all this thing in, the carry case is almost as heavy as the camera. I wanted a shot much deeper into this woodland, but I can't carry the thing very far. Since found that if I get it all set up on a tripod, compress the bellows, clamp everything down very well, put if over my shoulder, I can go further. The Portra was home developed in Kodak C41 chemicals.

waiting for new developer and fixer.
these were 4x5 paper negatives taken ????
I used the wrong developer. sigh..
but they're fun to play with.
5 more after this.
of course, no comments needed.
some paper, dunno which.
see what you can see.
**wednesday I was playing with the LF camera and managed to screw up four more negatives. I'm glad it's photo paper and not 4x5 film.
this is how I learn, and in this case, relearn.
Callie is known locally as 'black jesus' - he is kind, a deep thinker, ridiculously easy company.
Six days a week, his long gangly legs and endless ropey arms make their way around the island by bicycle, (often balancing a variety of fruits and coconuts on his handlebars to sell), easily traversing 20km-30km a day.
On this day, he told me that he had recently had a stroke and that he had some paralysis down his right side. The doctor told Callie that it was a good thing that he took one of his epic bicycle rides shortly after the stroke had hit, because doing so had minimised the lasting affect of the heart-event on his limbs.
Before the portraits, I showed Callie the images I had taken of his sister Anna - he got emotional: there she is...there she is'...
Callie, and ordinary men and women like him, make you feel part of something that matters. That a world of decency, respect, hard work, honesty and self-sufficiency, can and does still exist.
Whenever I speak to Callie or see one of his enormous hands lift from a handlebar to waive as I pass him, his give-everything smile beaming, I realise that 'god is one of us' and that our blessings are too many to count.
