Well hello Flickr. It is not until you've come back that you realised that you went away, and I now see there was a hiatus. I have been shooting, but not really scanning.
My darkroom work has been very regular (well until recently which might explain the scanning) and it has proved very satisfying. Please find a scan of one of my darkroom prints here. This was a test 8x8 which was on the way to a 12x12
If you are shooting film I highly recommend darkroom work to take you to another level. Ah go on.
vintage split selenium toned contact print.
(does this still count for 'roid week?)
this was an invitation for a party i had in 1987.
(that is, everyone got a split selenium toned silver print)
i took 4x5 studio strobe-lit polaroids of the party guests and gave them the originals.
I kept the negatives.
Nan Goldin came and I have a great portrait of her.
She was so stoned she has no recollection of being there.
I didn't get her permission, so unfortunately I can't reproduce it :(
Bongo was a party animal.
The branch again, just as technical reference.
The same procedure as with the previous print, but exposed one minute longer (8 instead 7) because the iron toner brightens up the lights.
fixed in a weak selenium toner (1+200) two minutes to protect the blacks against the blue toner
MT7 Iron blue toner 4+3+10+4+600ml 2 minutes
With longer toning times at first only the lights and the mid-range would turn from green to blue, after 5-8 minutes the blacks as well.

In order to judge whether and how the paper texture has an influance on fine details, I have chosen this negative.

Roland accompanied his friend, Trenton, on his photoshoot with me. He had no intention of being photographed. I insisted on taking a few shots of him. This is one of them.

A few weeks ago I posted The Doors of Perception. I thought it was a good result overall but I wasn't entirely satisfied with it.
This is a shot from another angle and a bit darker. I wanted to emphasize the rays of light breaking through the pilings to better visualize the famous quote from Aldous Huxley:
''If the doors of perception were cleansed every thing would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees all things through narrow chinks of his cavern."

studio work
This print was made by weaving 20 individual 5"x48" strips of Ilford RC photosensitive darkroom paper. I first assemble the paper (under a darkroom safelight) in a weaved pattern to the size of 4ft.x4ft. & then project my negative into the paper as it hangs on the wall. Then I bring the print to the studio floor and apply developer & fixer. After it's done with the chemicals I then take it outside and wash it with a garden hose. After it's dried, I then used photo bleach, sepia, selenium, stains, & inks.
