Another rather challenging print from an overdeveloped negative, originally taken in 2012. Balancing out the reflection and the top part of the image took some intricate dodging and burning.

Back from Morocco, where we've spent a lovely time in Fez and Meknes. Walking around in the old medinas feels like having been transported back in time for at least 140 years. I tried to reflect this feeling in my compositions and prints. By the way, it was an interesting exercise in street photography (which is not my usual style), using a Hasselblad 500 c/m.

Camera: Hasselblad 500 c/m with 2.8/80mm Carl Zeiss Planar

Film: Ilford FP4+

Development: R09 1:25 for 9:00 minutes

Dark Room Print: Fomabrom 111 in WA developer, toned in 1+19 selenium and very briefly in Foma Sepia (bleach 5 seconds).

The constellation of Orion photographed in deep red Hydrogen-Alpha light and rendered in monochrome. The filtered view brings out the very faint nebulosity in and around Orion, most invisible to the eye.

The Belt of Orion is just below centre, with the region of the Horsehead Nebula below the left star of the Belt, Alnitak. Below it is the very bright Orion Nebula. Surrounding the left side of Orion is the arc of Barnard’s Loop, now thought to be a supernova remnant.

The large circular nebula around Orion’s head is the Lambda Orionis Nebula or Sharpless 2-264. At left in Monoceros is the bright Rosette Nebula, NGC 2237, and above it the fainter nebulosity Sharpless 2-273 around the Cone Nebula. The small patch at top is Lower’s Nebula, Sharpless 2-261.

Betelgeuse, at a record dim magnitude visually at this time, here looks more normal in brightness, at least brighter than Bellatrix at right, as seen here in red light, as Betelgeuse is a red giant star.

I shot this using an Astronomik 12nm clip-in H-alpha filter on the Canon EOS Ra camera, a factory-modified red-sensitive mirrorless camera designed to pick up more of this deep red H-a nebulosity than can a normal camera. As the original image is simply deep red, it is best rendered as a monochrome image. However, this could be combined with colour images to make an enhanced full-colour image.

This is a stack of 9 x 8-minute exposures at f/2.2 with the Sigma 50mm lens and Canon EOS Ra at ISO 1600, on the iOptron Sky Guider Pro tracker. Taken before moonrise on February 12, 2020. Stacked, registered and blended with Photoshop 2020. Nik Silver EFX selenium and Luminar Flex Soft Glow filters added for artistic effect, to add a soft blue glow to the image, not red.

The temperature was about -15° C this night with a fine chill wind!

Lith print in Moersch Easy Lith on Fomatone 532. I used a very long exposure (>3 min) to get more detail in the lith print.

Toned for >15 min in Foma Selenium 1+19, in order to change the greenish tone of this paper into brown.

I realise my record on the times is not very precise, next time I'll have to improve on that...
