Cork oaks morning
Posted: 20 Sep 2021, 09:25
The harvested lower trunks of these trees really do bring to mind an army. Not sure how smart it was to shoot directly into the sun here... I guess a darkslide could get a bit warm/holey melty?
In other news, this is the first load of 4x5 ilford ortho that I've shot. I like it, though I've also switched up to Rodinal for development this week, so there are a couple of variables moving around. I might give it a run through HC-110.

I'm having some issues with my current laptop screen setting... The other images I took and uploaded to flickr yesterday are fine there, but on this screen are so dark and waaaaay too contrasty. Highly relevant to Walter's post, 'Which"... it all comes back to printing as the finished product, but it'd be nice to be able to show you guys what I'm trying to achieve
Ortho and Rodinal aren't the big news of my photo week, though. The old (1953 or so?) Super Fujica 6 that I picked up last week has been superb. I've sot more medium format in the past week than I had in a month or more with my press camera.
