Thank Henry, and as you might say, I don't think that a digital camera would be able to handle the subtle gradations in blue that the Velvia has been able to do. Well not in the same way anyway.

 

I really like those pictures of Amiens Cathedral, especially the second one of the Portico. Absolutely glorious.

There we go, excellent, full marks to both of you.

 

Soon everyone will all be posting reflections and odd abstracts :D Resistance is futile.

 

Simple "à la manière de" Philip :)

I work at the present time in my home office and I listen "Anton Bruckner" Symphony n°4 , in SACD  by an Australian Conductor Simone Young (if you like Bruckner I recommend *) and with Philharmoniker Hamburg Orchestra . It's sublime really sublime , like Velvia with vacuum tubes amplifier :)

 

* I have 3 another versions of this symph. by Karajan,Celibidache, Barenboim

This is great Eoin, very well done, I like in particular the first one.

 

 

I like these Gary. Where were they shot?

 

 

This is a good catch Chris and I agree. I've also wondered why the app insists on long first continuous agitation. I usually drop it to 30 seconds of very slow agitation (meaning in that time I mange around 10 inversions) for all my development. Generally for a hybrid workflow I prefer less contrasty negs and try therefore to minimise agitation. It's difficult though because for some reason it feels that one 'should' move the tank a lot to really 'develop' the film. Stupid feeling, I know. 

 

 

Yes more please Charles. Really nice ones. Btw how does one shoot half-frame panoramas? (And I know the answer is "One just shoots half-frame panoramas").

If you watch the video they were shot in one of the building at 1.16 minutes

I bought an M6 three weeks ago and I shot two rolls of trix400 pushed to 1600. The photographs came out quite contrasty; even more than expected on the basis of some pushing I had done with a Pentax MX.

I do not dislike the contrast, but it might be a result of how I used the light meter (very bright sunny day with strong building shadows)

This photo was taken in downtown Taranto (Southern Italy).

 

PS I do like film

I like this, Montezuma. Although definitely lots of contrast, there are some nice tonal gradients going on, too. The wetness comes through well.
