Twin Falls Idaho

Shot in Twin Falls Idaho a few years back — film on a Nikon F100 / 35mm. I don’t shoot 35mm much very often - but I’m trying to change that and work it more. Stand development of Rodinal at 5% with a 60 minute burn and then scanned on a Minolta dimage.

No crop.

Fuji Acros 100

Look for the scene to fill the frame -- see how your limitations will define the impact to the viewer - and then make that just as important as what your displaying - ultimately. If you have unlimited power you have limited creativity.

the Italy

M and I and her parents ventured on a cruise around the Italian peninsula this last September.  I was really torn as to what photographic equipment to take on this trip.  I have many choices to consider - Nikon D3s, Nikon 1v1, Nikon F100, Sony Nex-7, Rollei 6008i and the YashicaMat 124g - I brought the Sony Nex-7 and the YashicaMat 124g after much deliberation between all.

The black and white was Fuji Acros 100 - my favorite as of late - purchased during the discontinuation of Fall 2018 - but it’s coming back as a II series. I develop using a Stand in Rodinal @ 5% with a 60 minute burn. I may experiment with an Xtol dilution soon as from what I’ve seen online that may be a bit richer result.

The YashicaMat124g performed well - but always bring extra batteries just in case. Mine were getting a bit long in the tooth it seeemd. And - gear surprises aren’t any fun when traveling.

I mistakenly scanned the above as a BW - and it surprised me how well it turned out. Typically I stay true to the nuances of the format and I don’t vary from that - but this time the image just pops so much better as BW - I like it much better.

New Orleans - 4

A New Orleans building where the light, the lines, with the interpretation from the Rollei 6008i in black and white Fuji Acros 100, makes this image better than being there.  No Crop.
