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.

Printed on Ilford MG CT, developed in Moersch ECO and Selenium toned

 

New border added post print scan

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...

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!

I was 18 when I made this shot, and more than anything wanting to get away from my tiny, stifling home town. In retrospect, I find the few surviving images made during those last years at home fascinating; I wish I'd shot more. But I was just a kid with a camera, an oddball loner, not unlike most of the people who would become my best friends through the coming years. My sex drive had kicked in and I was half crazy most of the time. Given my inner turmoil, I have no idea how I was able to see this cat and fence and yard so well.

 

Unlike yesterday's image, I did clean this one up. In 50+ years, negatives can pick up a lot of dust and scratches, and the processing lab of the day was not especially clean or competent. A few years later, in Vancouver, I would learn film processing and printing, and gain some control over my work.

 

The camera: a Kowa H, for which I paid $85. Advertised as "the world's first 35mm single lens reflex electric eye camera", it was that indeed: a selenium cell would measure the light and select the appropriate (in its opinion) combination of aperture and shutter speed, or the user could override and choose manual exposure. The lens was fixed, a 48mm f/2.8, and fairly sharp. I also used two screw-on attachment lenses - 35mm and 85mm - although there was a significant loss of contrast and sharpness. Early days. Big learning curve ahead.

Best viewed on a large screen/monitor. Otherwise, the deatil gets lost and it seems too dark. I got up to close the window and this is the view I had from my living room window. Well, not quite. The view I had was in colour, but I took the liberty of converting it to monochrome (selenium) in Silver Efex 9

As small as it was, the exposure was based on the moon.
