The brain has to learn everything from scratch when you are born and things you now give for granted are actually very complex processes your brain put in place to explain the world around you.

Your own image reflected in a mirror is one of this examples. Babies finding their way around them are fascinated from what they learn and that intrigues me.

Director Huh Jung's thriller was selected as the opener of the London Korean Film Festival 2013.

 

On 6th November 2013, the London Korean Film Festival celebrated its eighth anniversary with a Special Premiere Gala at Cineworld in Haymarket. Hundreds of VIPs joined us at the Gala and the reception afterwards including Director Huh Jung and actor Son Hyun Joo and many who have continued to support the London Korean Film Festival over the years.

 

Film makers and producers joined the evening as well as film enthusiasts. Before the film screening, the President of the Republic of Korea, President Park Geun-hye attended the Gala, she was accompanied by Lord David Puttnam and UK Secretary of State for Culture Maria Miller MP from DCMS. Before the speeches, a Memorandum of Understanding on cooperation in the cultural and creative industries between the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism of the Republic of Korea and the Department for Culture, Media and Sport of the United Kingdom of Great Britain & Northern Ireland was also signed.

U.S. Trade Mission Results in Multimillion Dollar Memorandum of Understanding between Oracle and Government of Balochistan

 

Islamabad, May 7, 2015 – Today in Balochistan House, American technology company Oracle and the Government of Balochistan signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) launching a multimillion dollar capacity-building program to train local youth on new software and hardware technologies. The new agreement is the direct result of an Information and Communications Technology (ICT) trade mission to the United States led by U.S. Ambassador Richard Olson and Board of Investment Chairman Miftah Ismail in October 2014. The trade mission has already generated millions of dollars in new business for Pakistani and American ICT companies.

 

In his remarks during the MOU signing ceremony, Ambassador Olson said, “Today’s agreement represents a new area of U.S.-Pakistan ICT collaboration that goes beyond private sector deals to embrace public-private partnerships and leverage tech innovations to improve the lives of people. We salute Oracle for its commitment to the Pakistani ICT sector.”

 

Oracle is currently working with the Government of Balochistan to provide the company’s “Safe City” products to bring cutting edge IT solutions to increase public safety and security throughout the province.

Following President Obama's historic visit to the American Arctic, please join us for a timely conference on the vital role of science which seeks to better understand the profound and stunning changes that are occurring in the Arctic. Scientific research and collaboration informs our understanding on the impact of climate change on the most northern latitudes while also informing approaches to safely operating in and sustainably developing the economic potential of the region. Our keynote speakers will discuss the vital role of science leadership in the Arctic and will examine the most pressing gaps in our understanding of this dynamic region.

Afternoon workshop:Understanding debt: between economics and theology. Discussion led by a brother of Taizé , Philippe Lamberts, Eurodeputy, and Rabbi Levi from Jerusalem.

Understanding the type of paperwork required to apply for a construction surety bond is a critical step towards becoming bonded. But all these financial statements and reports won’t make sense because there lacks an understanding of the complex requirements of construction accounting. This is where a Professional Construction CPA will come in handy.

Now that I have a general understanding how this Sinar F1 works and no longer mess up any of the basic steps involved in taking a photograph, I decided to tackle the next problem: Taking control of the development process.

 

More specifically, applying the wisdom of the Zone System which on paper I already master to perfection. It was time for some practical experiments. The following recount is mostly for my records so that I can refer to it later.

 

For this scene, I decided to go with a dark background. The light background I used before turned out to be tricky. I never really achieved an acceptable level of white. The results were always somewhat blotchy and uneven which is mostly attributable to a lack of light in my macro setup. This I figured would be an advantage with a dark background.

 

I first wanted to take a photo of my Pentax LX but this being an all-black camera body there wouldn't have been enough separation from the background so I settled with the chrome OM-2 instead.

 

I tried to keep the flood lights focused on the camera and have as little light as possible fall on the black backing paper. This was already more difficult than expected. The paper is slightly textured (as can be seen in the area right in front of the camera). I had the vague hope I could preserve that texture when placing the background on zone III. According to my spot meter, this required 1/8sec at f/11.

 

My next problem was finding the brightest spot in the scene. I went for the right front edge of the camera adjacent to the film rewind crank. This was what my eyes told me.

 

The meter indicated 1/8sec, again! Since the meter meters for zone V, and I wanted the brightest area to be on zone VII, I would now have to do N+2 development to raise the brightness two zones. Obviously, I would have preferred an N+1 development.

 

I also had to take into account, as always, the bellow extension factor. I have no good way to measure this currently. I placed a little object in the scene and compared its size on the ground glass. It was roughly half size which according to the standard formula for determining the effective f-stop (Ef = f * (M+1) with M being the magnification and f the f-stop selected on the lens) would mean one more stop of light would be required. I now had my shutter speed (1/4sec) and f-stop (f/11) I wanted to use.

 

f/11 isn't very far stopped down on LF but I figured I could get the depth-of-field necessary by tilting the front standard to cut the angle between the film plane and the camera body in half. This mostly worked except that with the plane of focus being parallel to the camera now, I still would have needed a lower f-stop to get the front of the lens in focus. I totally forgot about that when finding the optimum angle of the front standard. I find out-of-focus areas in front of the plane of focus quite disturbing and this shot makes it pretty obvious why.

 

Anyway, since everything was set now, I took two identical shots. I developed the first sheet by itself so that I could develop the second one differently if adjustments were necessary (a wise decision as it turned out).

 

Finding the proper development parameters was why I did the whole thing in the first place. I don't even yet know what my normal development times should be so I assumed HC-110 (dilution H) at 6 minutes. The rule of thumb would be that a one stop push would require an increase of development time by somewhere between 15% and 20%. I went with 20% so a two-stop push would bring development time up to 10:15 minutes. This is what I went with.

 

Now for the observations: The two-stop push did in fact increase the overall range, as expected. Except that I seem to be off by at least one zone as far as the highlights go. The brightest parts are the diffuse reflections in the upper portion of the body. This is clearly not zone VII, but maybe VIII or even IV. A 15% increase in development is therefore more in order here. Total development time would therefore be 8:15 minutes, a full two minutes less! This hypothesis I will test with the second negative that is still resting undeveloped in the film holder.

 

On the other hand, the excessive development times did not harm the dark background. This was what worried me most at first because my eyes were telling me that the backing paper wasn't really as dark as I wish it had been. The placement on zone III clearly worked and the two-stop push during development did not make the background noticeably brighter.

I have to give all wardrobe credit and props to Chriss. I showed her some previous images I took at the abandoned zoo and she came up with a theme of a cages animal. From the vest/coat to the makeup and the bracelets. They were to symolize slavery and captivity and this image in particular expresses that sentiment.
