Excellent tones. What do you expose your TriX at, and develop it in (time and temp too, please).

Pete

I exposed this TRI-X with the M6 set to 250 ASA, because it always shows a bit to short times for my taste.

Developed it is with a home-brewed Kodak D-96. This is a commercial cine-film developer, so the smallest package is for 60 liters IIRC. Therefore home-brew for 1 liter.

Used undiluted 13 minutes at 20°C and four movements every minute.

wow, these are really unique, Wayne!

 

 

Interestionlng story behind your image making, ...just got to love the shot (I much prefer the warmer version, incidentally). Just imagining you slitting the film in complete darkness (or possibly in a changing bag) indicates a labour of love, for art sake. Your images are, I believe, truly unique.

I am comfortable going out on a limb here and proclaiming that these may be the only Minox, Adox Color Implosion shots on the face of the earth. :)

Wow, talk about uber crisp and clean... very nice

Thanks, Chris.  I would even claim to have scan this using a BEEON if it would get a rise out of Henry :)

Ooh - converting colour film to B&W! If that doesn't draw Henry out of his lair I don't know what will. Lovely pic though.

 

On a whim this afternoon I decided to run an XP2 through at ASA 1600, but lacking a (willing) subject I decided to use 120 film as there would be fewer frames to expose. Then my motorised Rondinax died just as I was about to add the developer (which takes 18 minutes at this speed). My poor, pulseless right arm (I was daft enough to thrombose my brachial artery) is a bit sore after twiddling the Rondinax knob for 18 minutes of development, one minute of stop bath, five minutes of fixer and then ten minutes of washing. Fortunately, I was able to take apart the motor and its gear train and clean and lubricate everything so it works again. Maybe something to post later.

Here's a picture I took during my workshop with Mary Ellen Mark in Oaxaca, Mexico:

Really like the use of flash in this shot. It enhances the documentary look.

Phil - A very interesting photo that keeps on giving the more you look.  Gender neutrality at its best :)
