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.
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.

Another picture from this very special place.
The old graveyard is peaceful. The place connects me emotionally to the ancient mysteries. The magic and beauty of the place is there to see and feel, but so difficult to capture.
It was raining and windy but it did not stop me from taking the pictures.

It's Roid Week again - so here I am on Flickr again, very much enjoying all instant analogue magic that's already in the pool! Have a look if you haven't yet - it will blow my mind.
For Day Two, here's a 4x5 Polaroid I shot on a River Thames Pola-walk with Polaroid Master Rommel. If you don't know his work, check it out. I would not be shooting 4x5s without his inspiration, and indeed without the amazing Speed Graphic camera that he hand-restored himself!
For the rest of the year, if anyone wants to see what I'm up to, the place to go is my Twitter.

Intrepid camera 4x5" -- Schneider-Kreuznach Symmar-S 150mm f/5.6 -- Ilford HP5+ @ISO320 in HC-110 dil.H 9' @20.5C
Self developed; negative scanned in Epson V850
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.
Camera: Calumet C1 (large format 8x10)
Lens: Fujinon 250mm f/6.7
Film: Ilford FP4 Plus developed in Rodinal 1+50
You can’t go wrong seeing things from different angles. It often opens doors into new ways of thinking, living or feeling.
Just let it happen.
@polaroidweek day 6, 2nd image.
My @polaroid films are gone. I first thought that my photography time is over but i found a new path to keep my eyes open for some new images.
I wish a good time to all the people especially here in the @polaroidweek. If i find some fresh images next year i take part again.
Darvin is something of a legend in the Cayman Islands, known for dressing in full regalia as a Buccaneer for the annual Pirates' Week festivities. He is a serious and passionate man, and a champion of local culture, speaking in schools and the university. He is fiercely proud of his heritage but embraces the diversity of the community on the island. A man you can have a real conversation with.
Hidden behind some bushes and away from the path people uasually go, I found this tree with its beautiful trunk.

Not my first image from here.
This time its Velvia on 4x5 sheet for the shot.
A beautifully moody day. Just near perfect for this sheet. Possibly the dynamic range challenged it a little but it managed it just ;-)

Happy New Year to all my friends! I wish that you will have much fun, prosperity and that all your dreams come true.
For me, my resolution is - to make at least one large format photo each week .... !
The illustration of my life in my beautiful Ukraine. The toughest year. The year of war. But we here, at home, put together pieces of our broken hearts, lives and souls and move, no matter what, to our dreams.

So much talent has passed through the Universe, will the Universe remember?
Or just pass by unnoticed?
