A thread for intimate woodland scenes.

I'll start with one in Acadia National Park. 4x5 Kodak Ektar 100.


I had to visit the location many many times before getting the image.
If you are interested in the story behind this photograph, this is a video about it

Hiking last weekend on Cape Lookout, north of Newport in Oregon. I've lived in this area 20 years and never taken the trail down this peninsula.
Photographed on Ilford Delta 400 with my "new" Kodak Retina III. Film processed in BER49, my new favorite developer.

Just to make it clear to myself, this is a print of a scanned negative? Did you make the outer effect yourself? No that this detracts in any way from the result.

Yes, I started with a scanned negative, then I made a larger Digital Negative in PS, printed it on Pictorico Transparency film and contact-print the film on Fabriano paper sensitised with VDB sensitiser.
The outer effect is "natural" - the brush traces on the paper when I applied the sensitiser (the sensitiser is applied locally, not on the entire paper).

Using paper negs in a self made wooden pinhole box with curved back.

Amazing photograph, full of lovely contrasting textures and tones. And the sense of defined spaces is breathtaking. So so nice.

Thank you, David - much appreciated!

I was recently handed a few rolls of a Ukrainian film to try - Astrum Foto 100, 200 and 400 speed in 35mm. These seem to be classic film types of the Tri-X/Plus-X style, with somewhat graphic qualities, very little base fog and they appear to actually deliver box speed. On the down side, they are spooled into CHEAP plastic bulk-loader canisters that don't always play nice in practice.

Here is a sample of yesterday's shoot using the Astrum Foto 200, processed in Rodinal:



By the way, this was shot with my "new" Retina Reflex IIIc with standard 50mm Schneider lens. A surprisingly good rangefinder camera!

Taken between Arcata and Eureka, CA years ago... Probably with a Rollei 3.5... I was attracted to the incredible fragmented detail...
