Well, some of us have day jobs, but since my last post on this topic (Wednesday) I spent 7 hours with a floor sander (6pm to 1am) prepping the living room floor. Still need to do some touch-up sanding with a hand-held sander...hopefully get sealer and top coats on this weekend. Thursday night I spent with my girlfriend...I love her, but I also love her hot tub -- that floor sander was brutal! I am still closer to 59 than 60, but man, my back was wasted!
I was going to platinum print tonight, but my GF wore me out ...so tonight I went thru a huge stack of 2 1/4" negatives deciding which ones I want to platinum print tomorrow...along with some 8x10 and 4x10 negatives I developed Monday night. I'd like to squeeze in developing a few recent 11x14 negs this weekend, too. But no, no new negatives made since Wednesday. All the 4x10 and 8x10 negs were taken with my Fuji W 300/5.6. I did have a Fuji 250/6.7 in the pack, but I did not have a yellow nor orange filter for it, and the scenes called for it (Big-Leaf Maple leaves!).
The 11x14's were with the trusty 19" RD Artar, except for a portrait of one of my boys with a Suter Basle Aplanat B No.6 which is on loan to me (same focal length as the Artar.)
Me, my 11x14 and the Suter (in the backyard of my new place):
