EoinC Posted September 30, 2016 Share #21961 Posted September 30, 2016 Advertisement (gone after registration) Very nice Gary soft color and pleasant to watch One question about trees cutting in NZ. If you cut all the trees it'll be like Easter Island in Pacific Ocean I hope that you re-plant them progressively , it takes fifty years even 100 years for trees of this size. Thanks for posting this picture and thanks for your canal Saint Martin choice Best Henry Gary's correct, Henry. The forestry is plantation timber. Pine grows straight and fast, but is not a native to NZ. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Advertisement Posted September 30, 2016 Posted September 30, 2016 Hi EoinC, Take a look here I like film...(open thread). I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
EoinC Posted September 30, 2016 Share #21962 Posted September 30, 2016 Kodak TMAX 100. I have during my last recent trip Ektar100,Portra 160 and TMax100 some rolls of TX400 (but don't use them). In total 50 rolls TMax 100 is pretty much unobtanium in 120 currently (I've had rolls on backorder with B&H for several months). 135 is still in abundance, though. 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EoinC Posted September 30, 2016 Share #21963 Posted September 30, 2016 Any of you guys tried the fujifilm 120 Neoprene 100 film...........I just bought 25 rolls of the stuff for India I use Fuji Acros Neopan 100 frequently, Neil. Be aware that it gives very deep blacks. I generally shoot it at ISO 50. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
A miller Posted September 30, 2016 Share #21964 Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) Thanks, Henry. Very nice color of stone Adam The black of the prior and the green of the plant give in addition a relief for the picture Thanks for posting Best Henry Klaus - Nice photo. Henry clearly favors you b/c with you the electrical wires are form part of the masterful composition and with me they form part of an ugly distraction... (PS: Henry is correct) 6008 I2, Distagon 50/4, Orange Filter, Tmax 400, D76 1:1 Strommast_170614_004.jpg Henry - see my comment to Klaus above... Absolutely superb Klaus Very nice black and white tone in this picture Thanks Henry Thanks a lot Charles Hallo Adam This is a wonderful photo, it has a presence, I think you succeeded! Thank you Charles Henry - The colors are wonderful but this is a case where the form is strong enough such that the B&W is better. Also the framing of the B&W is better b/c it cuts out the additional machinery on the top sides, which is distracting from the form in the first. Canal saint Martin Paris in b&w posted above and now in color Kodak Portra 160 Leica M7-35 Summilux Asph Image1canstmartkp16feclfht++++900.jpg Which you prefer ? Rg Henry Thanks, Henry Nice perspective effect with the blue sky in background Adam Thanks for posting Henry Thanks, Eoin. I like the "looking up to God" perspective of this, Adam, with the added story of the notes in the cracks.

Doc Henry Posted September 30, 2016 Author Share #21966 Posted September 30, 2016 (edited) For me, it's the B&W, Henry. I like the colour in the water, but get distracted by the colour of the lock gates. Thanks Eoin for your choice ... Canal Saint Martin is the place I often go for street pictures. Gary's correct, Henry. The forestry is plantation timber. Pine grows straight and fast, but is not a native to NZ. Gary is right , I don't know you are an expert in tree Thanks Eoin for this information ... "not native" to NZ you know that Gary ?

Yes Adam , I don't like electric poles or wires . They disturb me in a landscape picture in the middle of the nature and also as Adam have noticed in my canal color picture ! I'll go back soon there and I'll shoot , in being careful to Adam notice Best Henry Edited September 30, 2016 by Doc Henry 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EoinC Posted September 30, 2016 Share #21968 Posted September 30, 2016 Last weekend I flew home to farewell my Dad, and happened to dig deep in a forgotten cupboard, looking for lenses for my daughter (feeding her growing interest in film). In addition to finding my old Canon F1N, 17mm FD and 500mm Reflex FD lenses, a Kowa 6, which we took out shooting the next day, and a plethora of long-forgotten slides, I also found some films (including 4 unexposed Tech Pan 120, and 2 bulk loaders with something inside, one of which has a 1984 Tri-X 5063 label on it). Amongst them were 2 exposed no-name 35mm films, on which I had written ASA 20. I semi-stand developed them this morning, with one going to straight black. The other, however, has come out with some super high-contrast images, and a quick look with glazed eyes has me seeing some camels. I don't remember taking photo's of camels, but have encountered them in Australia and Afghanistan / Pakistan. I'll have to wait until I get back from work today to see what the mystery reveals. Either way, the shots will have been from between 1984 and 1991. It's amazing to me that they can survive the rough treatment I have meted out. What fun! There are also a Pan F (pre-+), 2 Kodachromes (which I'll try B&W developing), an Agfa chrome RS50 Plus, and a 120 roll of Fujichrome 100D to play with. Well, I got to see what and where - The film looks like copy film (which would explain the "ASA 20" I wrote on it), and only has "Eastman 31 '|+|:" and "Safety Film" and "X + ^" on it. Uber contrasty. The shots are in the Hindukush, in the tribal region between Pakistan and Afghanistan in late 1990. I don't even remember taking a camera up there. The shots prove two things worthy of mention: (1) I invented the "selfie". (2) As per (1), I had no friends...

Best Henry Thanks, Adam and Henry. Yes, it is the memory that is special. I loved it up there - Amazing people. It seemed to be always either 40ºC+, or snowing. I found some fosselised mussels whilst wandering around up in the mountains. I know that it was 1990, as I came back down from this area to find that the company I was working for had evacuated through Pakistan on a warning from the US Embassy as they expected things to kick-off with the onset of the 1st Gulf War - They didn't bother telling me, and didn't come back in until the Embassy gave the all-clear - Very reassuring. The tribal people didn't care about all that, though (or about anything else in the World. They were too busy shooting each other to be concerned about foreign wars. They were always good to me, except once, when they taught me a lesson on my ignorance. The film curls faster than Shirley Temple's stylist. There are a few shots that look like they may have more details, but greys are totally absent. 3 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The latent image is truly amazing. To put the electrons back after 26 years...wow! Do you think the brighter centres of the image are due to ..the original image formed by the lens...or an artefact of delayed developing? They really are beaut. cheers... 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Before I always use TX400 my favorite. I am now very well surprised in this film TMax100 deep black and fine grain Best Henry TMax 100 is very nice, with broader grays than Acros Neopan. I just checked my order of 120 TMax 100, and it's still on back-order since 24th June, supposedly due to the mystery number appearances. With the photo's I take, I don't think a few numbers appearing would make much difference... 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I may possibly have rescued more tones if I'd stand instead of semi-stand developed, but I had no idea what the film was - I'm over the Moon to have anything out of it. These films will have been severely maltreated over the last 26 years, so I got better than I deserve. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
philipus Posted September 30, 2016 Share #21977 Posted September 30, 2016 Probably an underwater film, methinks.

I also correct in SE Pro and I choose "Kodak Panatomic 32 X" I obtain with your permission this picture with more black and grey. Try also to print your negative. I think it'll be nice !
