Fading Tulip - paper negative on a 100 year-old 10x8 full plate field camera. Ilford RC VC glossy paper, developed in Bromphen standard dilution. Lens is a Dallmeyer F2.9 8” focus length (ex aerial photography). Exposure on F11, ISO 1 (under weak LED lighting), 3 minutes. Scanned at 1200DPI - inverted in Lightroom - no altering of levels.

Pear on a slate. Working to avoid highlights I followed Edward Steichen’s example (36 hr exposure in his case) and made a cloth tent and bounced light off the the sides rather than using direct lighting.

Preflashed KODABROME II RC paper negative. ISO 2, F45, 5 hours exposure

Very pleased to be allowed to travel to Somerset (Hodders Combe) with relaxed Covid restrictions. Also very pleased with the results I got today on the 1890's Thornton Pickard Imperial camera and Penatc F2.9 lens. F5.6, 4 seconds ISO 4 with Polarising filter. Pre-flashed Ilford RC Multigrade Paper 6.5x8.5". Ilford developer 1:19.

Experimenting with some still life images of this lovely #Artdeco Coffee set - lighting is a challenge to minimise over-bright reflections and at the same time lift the shadow areas. F64 100seconds Ilford RC MG IV Glossy paper for the negative (ISO 2) - developed in Ilford Chemistry at 1:9. Shot with c 1890 Thornton Pickard Imperial camera - 8.5x6.5" negative.
