My wife had traveled with the boy, I had a whole afternoon to myself so I called a model in. It was just a two hour shoot with available light but I enjoyed it.

Rolleiflex 2.8E. Film Maco PO 100c. Printed on AGFA Portriga-Rapid PRN 118. Developed in Moersch Eco 4812 + Selenium 1-20 + bleach 1-50 + MT3 70-10-850
The folding Zeiss Contessa 35 (model 533/24) was designed by Hubert Nerwin and made in Stuttgart during the effort to rebuild the Zeiss Ikon name after WWII. Produced between 1953-1955 Nerwin included elements from his Super Ikonta's design and specially the distinctive extra lens for the coupled rangefinder.
The camera was superbly made in every respect and was equipped with a coated f2.8 45mm Zeiss Optron Tessar lens, 9 speed Synchro Compur shutter, uncoupled Selenium exposure meter, MX flash synchronisation and coupled rangefinder. The latter having a prism rather than the usual mirror.
Above all was the high quality excellence of everything coupled with a very distinctive appearance.
Been selenium toning this series in the dark room, this was my first attempt at creating a similar effect digitally with Photoshop.

This camera takes twelve 4x4cm negatives on a roll 127 film. This year, 2012 is the centenary of Kodak's introduction of the format. Once the mainstay of family photography, it is now obsolete, though not quite extinct. The film here is Efke 100 developed in Rodinal.
To mark this centenary year, I plan to use as many 127 film cameras as I can, the project will be recorded on a new blog “127@100” which can be found here: 127centenary.blogspot.com

Lith on Brovira BH111 in Se5 (+D + E), toned in selenium/gold (1:00, 1:30)
A relatively recent box of Brovira (~1970) which is uncommonly slow and controllable in the lith process (slow infectious development), the tone with this combination is, ehm special, but with the selenium/gold toning it comes quiet fine and it's not necessary to have an orange lithprint to achieve blue tones in the gold toner. This BH111 is a bit like the poor man's Oriental New Seagull ...
(Yes, I know, I should really level the horizon here, but it was 1 am and me completely obsessed with the tones and contrast - if you want to buy it, you get it leveled ...)
In a series of portraits of strangers I meet walking around making a short portrait session on the spot with what's available.. Here Janina is shot with a 7'' Petzval mounted on a Graflex Speed Graphic loaded with Ilford HP5+ 4x5 sheet film shot at iso800 and then the negative is toned in selenium to pop with some extra contrast. Home developed in Kodak Xtol 1+1. The negative is digitized with my DSLR and have curves adjustments for tones and dust removal.
Somewhere in the Western Fjords of Iceland.....It was evening and everyone else was hanging out after dinner. Being naturally anti-social, I went out in the rain for an evening hike up a creek. Well worth the trip.
Taken with my trusty Hasselblad with some lens...maybe an 80 with Acros film printed on ilford MGWT with selenium toning
An unjammed jammed flea market camera purchase. Seller couldn't get the camera's shutter to fire. Film advance wound, but no click. Sold the Aires to me for $5 with the leather case. Got the Viscount home and jiggled and nudged the self-timer until the shutter reluctantly released; works fine now. The rangefinder image is weak but still operable. The built-in selenium cell light meter miraculously still works. Nice build, solid operation.
I am slowly working on a analog darkroom series of photos relating to tea, gardens, and cafes.
This is a bit challenging because it isn't always easy or possible to set up a large camera at a cafe without getting on other peoples' nerves.
Gardens are a bit easier, as in this photo. This is the first image in the series, and I am in love with it because I love tea and the accoutrements that go along with it.

I decided to try this out as a dated shot so I tweaked it closer to selenium rather than sepia tone and dropped a filter on it. I dialed the filter down to little effect. I am running down on the Old Mill captures. I used the bough to hide the electric service. I will return some time soon; all doors were locked each time I visited. It tells us a lot about the early settlers' lives in the area. This cabin was built up near Buttonrock (Rottenbuck in the vernacular). The Buttonrock story is a bit tangled to repeat. Early on, the trout fishing was legendary up there. I expect it still is if your get above the reservoir and below Taylor, bad walking terrain. It remains a great walk up the access road along the North St.Vrain. Stop and admire the KKK administration dam on the way up. Built poorly and at a bad spot, construction was abandoned. This was considerably more than Boy George accomplished in his administration.
The cabin was described as follows on the website, 'The Billings Cabin, built in 1890, was part of a hunting and fishing resort west of Lyons. Billy Bolyes dismantled and numbered the logs of the cabin when the City of Longmont created Buttonrock Dam in the area. In 1980 the logs were reassembled in Old Mill Park." I am related to the family through a marriage in my family's last generation. Billy Boyles was another area legend.
One of the rail lines serviced the original Denio Mill located near here. An early Denio Ditch delivered water to the mill. It is possible it was the Denver, Longmont and Northwestern narrow gauge but built west by the Denver, Utah & Pacific. I think I remember a picture of the Denio Mill with multi-gauge tracks. The mill RR extension ended below the hill down Gay street though the ditch must have had a source well west of here.. The Lyons branch is now operated by the Burlington and Santa Fe, (originally Burlington & Missouri River) to Longmont and shows up in recent postings.

In experimenting with these lith prints, I've made my first darkroom prints in about 8 years. It's been a reminder that watching a print develop under the safelight is one of the real satisfactions of photography.

I should have taken this one out earlier. The darker areas toned first and the cloud stood out starkly. I was hoping to tone the dark areas more so I left it in the toner but then the cloud toned too... It doesn't look bad but I was liking the whiter cloud until it toned.
This is actually cropped a bit as it is an 11x14" print but my scanner is just 8.5x11". Ilford Multigrade Warmtone fiber based paper.
