Who doesn’t love the gear acquisition bug?? May have treated myself to a #Linhof Technika to save lugging the heavier thing around for some quicker shots. So far I love it but the lens it came with has a few limitations and some really nice quirks.

Test photos on expired film and it’s come out nice. The Carisbrooke castle photo is on my trusty but heavy AF monorail Toyo. Must. Develop. The. Slide. Film. I keep blaming the delay in processing on needing a million bottles for the chemicals (it’s not cheap, doesn’t keep and mixes in the wrong final amount for me). That’s my excuse, and I’m sticking with it, and it’s nothing to do with a total loss of confidence in myself on that front.

Must remember focussing loupe though. That’s essential. 🤦

Castle road, photo on a linhof with unexpected vignette from too much rise movement. I’m an idiot.
Trinity landing, cowes. Supposedly public but it depends on how pricey your boat is, I guess?

My first foray into large format portraiture has some issues. Overexposed, thanks to a lack of aperture control on the lens and a slow, hand-actuated shutter. That hand actuated shutter is also responsible for some camera shake, resulting in further lack of clarity.

I made a few mistakes in development: loaded the film the wrong way, so it slipped out of the holder and got scratched up during agitation, and forgot to rinse off the anti-halation layer.

After an embarrassing eight-month hiatus, I've begun to post my black and white photography again on #Pixelfed. Sorry about that! I hope you enjoy it.

PixelfedSteven Louis Ray (@stevenlouisray@pixelfed.art)Garden Leaves (2018) Going by the notch codes on this sheet of 5x7 film, this was shot on Delta 100, and most likely developed in HC-110. I can't honestly tell if this is a negative scan or a darkroom print. Maybe I need to have more coffee. This image has always tugged on my heartstrings for some reason. I love the tonality. I hope you like it. :-) #believeinfilm #largeformatphotography #blackandwhite #fediphoto #darkroom

A black and white image arranged in portrait style. The edge of the film negative can be seen against a dark background. Large green leaves of an unidentified plant extend up from the bottom right corner toward the center and upper right of the image. The veins of the leaves are prominent, as are the stems. Their lamina or sides extend out from the body of the leaf quite a bit.
