Zeiss Ikon Contaflex IV with Carl Zeiss 50mm Tessar (both circa. 1958). Arista Premium 100 (rebranded Kodak Plus X). Nikon 9000 scanner.
I love this old camera. It's small (like a rangefinder), light, and takes pretty good pictures. On this day, however, the selenium meter struggled. It overexposed almost every shot.

Zeiss Ikon Contaflex IV with Carl Zeiss 50mm Tessar (both circa. 1958). Arista Premium 100 (rebranded Kodak Plus X). Nikon 9000 scanner.
I love this old camera. It's small (like a rangefinder), light, and takes pretty good pictures. On this day, however, the selenium meter struggled. It overexposed almost every shot. But still, not bad for a camera that dates from the late 1950's.

Zeiss Ikon IKOPHOT Rapid, a match needle selenium light meter in a leather case with a ornate chain. This thingy is from the 1950’s, but I found it at a flea market a couple of years ago. The seller had no idea what it was, she told me it belonged in a set with a camera which had been sold separately. So we gathered it had something to do with photography and as I found it to look truly curious I bought it for a couple of dollars. Googling it later revealed this in fact is a light meter.
About my Corner of Curiosities: A few years ago I bought a little box with drawers, thinking I would collect a few special bits and pieces in there. I parked this little set on top of my IKEA chest of six drawers which stands in a corner of my apartment. In time, I added more small shelfs, drawers and boxes and began to put curious items on display in all the little nooks and crannies. Quirky little things I mostly find on flea markets, but also get off the net. This corner of my home serves as inpiration, and every once in I while I walk up the IKEA dresser, put my elbows on top and rest my chin in my hands while I let my eyes wander through all these curious things. Moments such as these give spark my imagination and spurs my motivation to doodle in my journals. The collection is’nt all that special, as it’s not very easy finding fairly cheap, quirky and curious things, small enough to fit in the corner. My collection is constantly changing, if I find a new collectible, something else has to go or be moved around - as the corner now more or less is full.
Anywho, I thought I’d dedicate a photo album to this Corner of Curiosities, here on Flickr - probably for no other purpose than to tickle my own imagination :)

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).
Scanned print.

Rollei RPX 25 in Rodinal 1+100, semistand 1 h.
Printed on Fotokemika Varycon RC, developed in Moersch Eco 4812 and split toned in Thiourea-Selenium.
Se is not only important as a toner in analog photography, it also exhibits light-sensitive properties and thus was used in light meters (surprisingly correct even after >50 years).

Discovered last year that closeups of melting snow when converted to b+w look almost metallic. Couple that with some water drops from the meltwater and this is the result.
Sounds a simple formula but I
spent a good hour last night trying to time my shutter finger with the drip of the melt-water! Quickly melting ice doesn't stay still either (I brought it inside to shoot it) so focus drifts away through time.
Used flash to get the exposure fast enough for the water drop and used Silver Efex Pro with a bit of selenium toning to finish off the image.
I quite like the result. Hope you like it too.
