For Peter's 4th birthday - they threw the most awesome shadow appreciation party!
Love those wall decorations!
We recently bought a new couch (against my will, I wanted to reupholster this one) and had to move this one into the kitchen for a few days, waiting for the deep snow to melt so we could store it in one of our buildings, until we have a yard sale this summer.
Shadow immediately adopted it as her "elevated dog bed", until we removed it entirely.
A new risky test (due to quality problems) of Svema films, here the OTO 200, in Lyon France, December 26, 2022.
I used my Zorki 4K camera (year 1977) equipped the 42-mm shade hood of my Focaflex and a FOCA anti-UV filter.
Svema (Свема) OTO 200 is a super-panchromatic film coated on a very thin polyester flat base that looks very closed to the aerial film Agfa Aviphot 200. The film an extended sensitization in the red to the near IR at 780 nm,
The film was exposed for 200 ISO using a Minolta Autometer III and its 10° finder for selective measurements privileging the shadows zones of the scenes.
Typically, and due to the poor light conditions, exposures was at 1/125s or 1/60s from f/4.5 to full aperture (f/2 of the KMZ Jupiter 8 lens)
Parc de la Tete d'Or, December 26, 2022
69006 Lyon
France
After exposures the film was processed using Adox Adonal (equivalent to Agfa Rodinal) developer at dilution 1+25, 20°C for 7min (the Rollei Superpan 200 required 8min in the same conditions) according to data found on www.digitaltruth.com).
The film was then digitalized using a Sony A7 body fitted to a Minolta Slide Duplicator installed on a Minolta Auto Bellows III with a lens Minolta Bellow Macro Rokkor 50mm f/3.5.
All views of the film are presented in the dedicated album either in the printed framed versions and unframed full-size jpeg. The negative views have of poor density and the film suffers from 2 major other problems :
1- The film is shorter than indicated since I made only 33 views instead for the given 36 exposures.
2 - Aside the first 6 views, the emulsion is damaged by darker zones and density "punctures" indicated that the stock film is likely from a stock that was poorly preserved, maybe exposed to chemical vapors or outdated (contrary to the indicated expiry date in April 2024 (batch #33). The same damages were observed the previous FOTO 400 film test indicating quality problems for these Svema films.
As for the Agfa Aviphot 200 (Rollei Superpan 200) the film is backed with a water-soluble anti halation coat that need to be removed prior to development. Three bathes of 1min with water at the same development temperature was necessary to remove the black and dark blue layer.
About the camera :
This camera was manufactured in 1977 by KMZ company ( Красногорский механический завод, Krasnogorskiy Mechanicheskiy Zavod) located in the Moscow region. KMZ also manufactured the ZENIT SLR's among many other productions. Zorki 4K was produced between 1972 to 1978 and the previous Zorki models were inspired by the Leica II since 1949. This model 'Made in USSR" is branded in roman characters, intentionally for exportation. Other Zorki 4K were also branded in Cyrillic as "Зоркий". Zorki 4K was sold basically either with this Jupiter-8 lens 1:2 f=50mm or the Industar lens1:3.5 f=50mm. The Jupiter-8 is a Sonnar Zeiss optical formula and fits to the Zorki body using the screwing M39 Leica mount.
Its was sold to me in August 2022 from Austria with its original ever-ready leather bag, a front lens cap and a small shade hood accessory Minolta D42KA. The shade hood and filter of my Focaflex also fit to the Jupiter lens (Leica standard 42 mm filter)
This V2 Storm Shadow is a really nice figure, though his parts suck pretty bad. I've always loved that camo patterern he has, and he works well as an actual Joe team member. My main problem, again, is with his parts (most of which aren't shown here). They are all neon, and somewhat undetailed. Likewise, his backpack makes him very top heavy. I was barely able to pull this shot off as he just couldn't stand on his own with the backpack on.
All in all, a good figure with decent sculpting and paint apps, but he definitely has to have his accessories switched to really shine.
Withernsea beach..
Out in the car yesterday with Jill..
Got some more passport stamps to collect..
Two cafes visited, two passport stamps obtained! - Warley Cross Cafe at Driffield and Castle Cafe in Withernsea.
Would have been three cafes and stamps but but one of the cafes on our list only opens later in the week!
Had a bit of walk on the beach and a paddle here at Withernsea..
It was a bit hot! Nice to cool off..
My friend Bridget and I went out adventuring one day and ended up among some abandoned ruins. I mean, anyone that knows us should not be surprised, we both love abandoned spaces. Anyway, that day I had my camera set up to capture in black, white, and green. This turned out to be the perfect setting for that adventure as it gives hints of color here and there. While exploring I found this round structure with the stark shadow of another structure being cast on it. So I had to capture it the best that I could.
This image was taken in JPG using only the settings in my camera, there was no post-processing or editing.
A dilapidated farm house outside of Trenton, NC. I like how the shadow of the tree plays on the front of the house.
Trying to keep this as realistic as possible while punching it up a bit... unlike some HDR shots. (Shout out to Nigel!)
To be there in the moment, View On Black
