A brief pause from the Color Implosion pictures, although I have some more to share.  The first in a series from the Chap Olympiad.

 

Neopan Acros 100 with IIIf and 50/3.5 Elmar.

 

 

Wonderful image - classic B/W shot with rich tonality... Well done.

Adam, to Steve Ricoh's inquiry about replicating Color Implosion:

 

perhaps Wayne can be consulted on this score...? :)  He seems to have it figured out...

 

The process requires a Zorki 1 rangefinder camera and Industar 50mm 3.5 lens. My particular camera is a brass Luftwaffe edition. Beyond that, all that is required is any color film and the daring to forswear all good sense in film usage. With the Industar, one must have enough light to shoot at at least f8. :)

The barn was shot with Zenit 1 SLR and MIR 37mm 2.8. But with the Zenit and MIR, sub zero (Fahrenheit) temperatures are required in order to induce the CI look.

A further tweak for consideration, somehow damage the light seals just enough to spoil the film at the sprockets top and bottom, just enough to induce a red glow. Another possibility worth trying (I'm making notes to myself here, not suggesting anyone else try this) store regular El-Cheepo film on a hot radiator for a couple of weeks, then expose.

Mike - I am equally impressed with your home development results as I am with the film!  Excellent!!

My next three photos are thanks to Adam Miller who gave me the roll of film I used. I like the results I got, I'll certainly try some more of this film.

 

Pentax 67, Cinestill 50, home developed.

 

 

 

Thanks, Edward.  Yes, if there were a newspaper called the Snow Blizzard Post I think I would make the front page most days :)

Love the use of flash in these shots, Adam. It creates a certain photo-journalistic look.

 

Very interesting, I am loading a roll of this film into my M7 as I write for a morning walk with a few LUF members! :)

Amman-Bangkok Flight.
