chrism Posted October 27, 2021 Share #78102 Posted October 27, 2021 And not playing a flute in this photo? I used to visit the vegetarian restaurant started by his disciples in Halifax, NS in 1981. It was called Satisfaction Feast, and the food was the usual tasteless kind of rice, beans and very little seasoning. Wife being vegetarian, sacrifices had to be made. For some reason, that kind of vegetarian restaurant always offers fruit crumbles and custard as a dessert, and one cannot get that wrong! Sadly the whole business dissolved with the sexual accusations that seem to occur in many such organisations/c*lts. Don't let my memories detract from your excellent portrait! It's very good. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The masochism comes from trying to make PET base films play along with Rondinax or Lab-Box developing tanks. There are several problems and you're supposed to avoid those films with those tanks. Masochism not, Maestro chrism. A really good photograph. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wayne Posted October 28, 2021 Share #78111 Posted October 28, 2021 9 hours ago, Kl@usW. said: R Wayne, these vignettes of the urban life in an American town are wonderful. Think about the huge bridge between Riga 1938 and Indiana 2021.... Amazing. Walter would be proud of you. Thank you Klaus. I think of Walter Zapp frequently when I pull any of my Minox cameras out. It is a shame how little is documented about the man. In Email conversation with Dong Goldberg, he related that on one occasion a journalist conducted/recorded a pretty extensive interview with Walter, late in Walters life. As it happened, the recording was lost before it could be transcribed. Tragic. Yes. I agree. Walter would be pleased, but probably not too amazed by the fact that this Riga is still being used. They , too, have that certain elegance I mentioned in a previous thread. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The polyester is too tough for the guillotines in 35mm Rondinax or Lab-Box tanks, and the 120 film is too stiff to reliably separate from the paper and coil up in the holding chamber of Rondinax 60 or Lab-Box tanks with the 120 module. Plus its stiffness makes it hard for the rotating light trap to make a good seal against the film when you take the lid off to clip the strap on the film. Finally, the film base transmits light like a fibre optic and so you can get fogging when the lid is off just through the exposed end of the film. I should probably admit that these films are better developed in a Paterson or Nikor tank. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post chrism Posted October 28, 2021 Popular Post Share #78113 Posted October 28, 2021 Thought up a torture test to continue my explorations into reduced grain films. Use a half-frame camera, which will double the size of any grain, and rate the XP2 at 1600 for extra cruelty. Turned out OK, and I had such fun using the Pen F that I've decided I must do it a lot more often. Naturally, half-frame means triptych time, and I decided to include myself in each frame. I suppose I could have changed clothes for each so I'd look like triplets rather than just the same boring old fart! Welcome, dear visitor!
