yep, thats super nice! Seeing through to the bottom of the pool is spinning me out a bit, my eyes see it as 2D, then 3S, then back again.
I think you really nailed the exposure here, Maris. Did you use a polariser?

24mins! yes, that played out well I like it a lot.

Oof! That doesn't sound too flash, Walter, but it sounds like you're taking it in your stride.
All the best with it, mate, and look forward to seeing you back in action.

I've enjoyed looking at and reading about all of your recent images, Bazz. This one definitely looks way, waaay out there,
I like the highlights here in particular.

The second version of the street corner show me more texture and I like it :) Funny that the parking sign is untouched over the years. The tree is really superb, I really like the background retaining just the right amount of detail. I'll give my current APX stash a go in Rodinal too.. these are gre...

Wow, thats interesting intel on the F2 Walter. The movement that I was thinking here was the water... at 1/30th or so this water looks quite different to a full second or two. But I can honestly say that you've got me on a mission to use these lenses to their potential and at the same time, using mo...

Maris, yes you're about right on the exposure :) Interesting that you rated APX100 around iso64... perhaps the film has lost no speed then, in the 25 years since its expiration. Oh, and the fix to speed graphic was done over breakfast this morning. I was trying to work out why they didnt ship them t...

This was a morning session at a crossing of the Molonglo river that hundreds of Canberrans drive past each day. The stump immediately stood out as a nice thing to shoot. Upon developing the negatives, this was the only sheet that looked thin, but I'm very happy with it. I think the stump clearly sta...

Walter, thanks for that! I've usually been sticking to F22-32, thinking it was some kind of universal sweet spot... I need to read Thalman's stuff! I didnt realise it varied by lens, but thinking now, of course it should. I've not fired up the large format enlarger yet, but have signed up for a mont...

Maris!! That is triple-A rated, gold plated tip giving mate, thanks so much! I was confused about having only up-tilt... this will make a huge difference. I shot some 35mm down the valley from Spencers creek last week, but it didnt even occur to me that I was looking toward Tate. I'll go back and ha...
