My heart! I tried to do a hasty contact print of this last night in the toilet (shh) which was a total disaster. There are three shots of this, two black and white and one colour on expired slide film, which I am yet to develop. In the cramped downstairs loo with the enlarger propped up on the toilet seat, I spilled some developer on the two B&W negs. One is a write-off and this one has some damage I’ve been able to cover up a little with the canner and some fun smelling chemicals.

Here’s the salvage effort of Totland Bay, Isle of Wight.

About a year ago I made my first experiments with self-developing black and white film.
For my birthday my family came over and I made a series of portraits with the Lomo LCA 120. on this picture you can see my dad. There‘s a couple more on my #lomohome (check the #linkinbio).
I forgot exactly what the film was. I ordered some Fomapan 400 for medium and 35mm just yesterday.

First test actual film photo from the large format. I'd hoped to have a more interesting photo but the tide was high and too rough to get to where I wanted with the intention of getting some halation effect on the film.

It's also the first lunch break I've been able to take in a long while, so it is what it is. Loving it so far and need to learn more, make some adjustments to the bellows frame as I accidentally knocked the front standard giving a little wierd dpeth of field when it should have been locked.

Oh, and developing. No more sloppy habits! clean fingers and clear dust before scanning in. 🤦

Nerdy stuff:
