Still shooting, a little.

G'day all

I've not been able to post for a while as I'm living away from home and still getting organised.

I've taken up a teaching position and have limited facilities where I'm staying. The best I can do in regards to LF imaging is to capture using my simple lens 5x7 camera, wet process in the laundry and scan/post process/print digitally.

I've made 3 images so far, here are 2 of them, both on pre-flashed RC paper, exposed with yellow filter and developed in half strength Multigrade developer.

Nice motifs, isolated trees in a paddock, very Australian. The yellow filter is surprisingly effective in taming those skies and bringing out the clouds. Blank skies used to be a paper negative tradition but your's look much better.

I see your marginal notes are mirror-reversed. If you are going to write on the emulsion side why not write backwards so the positive image is easy to read. How hard can it be? Leonardo da Vinci did it all the time.
