Description Reminds me of having another darkroom session... and that reminds me that I have no negatives left worth printing... and that reminds me that I'm a lazy bugger...

Anyway, here's one of my older prints slightly processed (border, stamp, levels, sharpen)


camera: Nikon EM
film: Ilford FP4, ISO 400
exposure: 1/50 sec. f3.5
paper: AGFA Brovira chamois

rawimage In reply to Locopunkster [2006-12-07 08:23:00 +0000 UTC]

no, no, it's bw. The color comes from the paper. it's old cream colored paper. Of course the saturation is pushed in PS

Locopunkster In reply to rawimage [2006-12-08 03:03:27 +0000 UTC]

Ahhh... So wait, let me get this straight. I can get a paper that when I print my B&W negatives onto it it'll look a cream color?

rawimage In reply to Locopunkster [2006-12-08 09:53:58 +0000 UTC]

I'm not sure if it's still produced nowadays though. The one I'm using is about 40 (!) years old

Awww, damn! T_T Is it still the same printing process as normal RC paper?

rawimage In reply to Locopunkster [2006-12-09 10:59:59 +0000 UTC]

rc? it's normal photopaper for black & white processing, but instead of white it has a cream color, that's all

πŸ‘: 0 ⏩: 1

Locopunkster In reply to rawimage [2006-12-09 16:00:52 +0000 UTC]

So the process is the same then. 'cuz we use RC Paper (Resin-coated) and by mistake I bought Fiber paper and the teacher started complaining because Fiber paper takes twice as long to develop in every part of the process

This is really cool. Black lines through black lines. The sky is in a whole different world altogether. It's proof of the times. Looks great! Well done.

Thanks mate. I wish it would have turned a little brighter in the shadows and not that askew though.

Archlungs In reply to rawimage [2006-12-06 21:28:03 +0000 UTC]

Reckon it's fine the way it is, man. With the shadows as dark as they are the structure looks in between two dimensions; the corporeal and the intangible. An imposing darkness. Half the reason why it's good as it is! The other half being technical skill, haha, you're very talented.

eisenkalk [2006-12-06 14:17:44 +0000 UTC]

interesting.
like the new stamp!
why do real scratches always look so less real than fake ones?
have to say i don't like the mixture of the big black space and the lines. either one combined with the sky would be a better pic imo, if you know what i mean... (theoretical, not that i would cut this photo in half or so...)

rawimage In reply to eisenkalk [2006-12-06 21:13:16 +0000 UTC]

Thanks, that's a real stamp. There's a guy in Neu Isenburg were I bought three custom made stamps and two ink-pads merely 10 bucks.
Hm. maybe because fake ones are controlled while real ones are unleashed beasts who do what they want. Yer, I agree with you. I'm not 100% satisfied with this one neither. To be honest, not even 80%. Why do you think it took me so long to submit it? I think the wide angle is too funky and the blacks are too black, but... damn, I lost the thread
