Also some (many) of the photographs by Thomas Joshua Cooper… only the other day I was going through his books, great body of work. All of it about water.

Thank you so far for all the suggestions...
In my old darkroom I had two Paterson safelights (like this one), but that room was half the size of the current one, so I think I would like to add...
Hello everyone,
after almost a two-year pause caused by moving to a different place, renovating house and basically life happening, I am finally very very near to having a darkroom again. It is a...
Thank you. I wasn’t aware of this documentary, but I have always enjoyed Ravilious’ photographs…

This is pretty old - back from 60s or 70s, I mean, 1260s or 1270s... So it might fit in this thread...

Guys, this whole thread makes me feel very inadequate. I think I would be able to make such a thing - got some practice with soldering kitchen LED strips as well as some basic RC model stuff for the...
My experiences are rather limited - only one or two boxes in 4x5. In my experience the results with Pyrocat HD were less then ideal - I have read somewhere explanation by some of their staff that the...
Thanks everyone for your kind words...

I have been out of darkroom for a few years and found all of Wolfgang's developers still alive upon my return (original solutions, undiluted)... Anyway, you can simply try to see if it works... :)
Time to revive this thread a little bit - as I stared to revive my own printing

#3 indeed. For me, this is part of the beauty and attraction of the whole thing - "hands on" approach, creating physical objects, no screen time involved (unless I decide to share the final print...
Nice one, Easton!

I have been looking at this format as well in recent weeks - scouring the bay for holders - Adox cuts their film in this format regularly I understand...

Rick, having just bought some Lupex to try out (since Foma is no longer producing Fomalux), I am wondering about these filters - are these just any green / blue filters or some specific ones?
Thank...
Jim, being something of a book nerd, always looking at different / better ways how to do things, I have looked around, but have only found his "Craft of Photography" and "Art of Black and White...
Joe, Dugan, John, thank you so much.
I am quite happy with the print indeed - the day I was there was extremely windy, most of my other negatives were either spoiled by it or indeed not even...

Austin, I keep returning to this image - so "utterly simple" yet complex image... With beautiful tones - not so easy with snow at least in my experience... Very well done!
Maris, thank you for this article... I own and use an 8x10 Tachihara and recently when my son asked about the camera and the company I was sorry not to be able to respond. Now I can finally learn...
As you can see, I am going through the backlog of negatives that I did not have time or strength to print before...

Thanks everyone for your input - the idea of condensation did not occur to me, but that might be the case.
Having learned the "hard way" some time ago I always carry a spare (or two) nowadays....
A quick question to those of you who use the Pentax Digital spotmeter.
Situation: I have put a fresh (or at least newly bought) battery (from a well known brand) maybe two or three weeks ago,...
I did not spent enough time in my darkroom for quite a few months, or rather years, so these days am going through a stack of unprinted negatives. This one is from a few winters ago - January 2019 I...
Thank you for your responses, so far. I think I ought to have formulated my questions better. Of course, there are many styles, what I had in mind were mostly what might be called a "detailed study...
I have been recently playing around some still life images (still lifes?), one thing I have been rather struggling with is the choice of background. I have been looking through the still life threads...
Merg, thank you very much for your kind and encouraging words!

Paul, I did not mean that you are emulating, far from that. We are all trying to hone our vision, our craft, probably each of us has his "obsession" that fills his mind and eye for longer or shorter...
Paul, this series of your still lifes on the windowsill is very beautiful - I keep returning to those (and wishing I had a similar window to play around...) Also, it reminds me of another expert on...

Maybe I am alone in this but I do find the combination of a pinhole negative combined with with printing process very addictive. Been out of darkroom for months if not years (apart from some...
It depends on paper... with some, like Fomatone, higher temperature influences not just speed but also colour / tone.
I am not sure about NOVA heated tanks - you cannot see what is going on inside,...
