A 365 day thread for 2016


Recommended Posts

<p>If there's enough interest I'd like to offer another 365 day thread like we just completed. While I'm pleased with the way it worked, I'd still be interested in any suggestions that anyone might have. I'd be glad to act as facilitator again if that's satisfactory, but would also step aside (but still participate) if another member wanted to keep it going. I'll start with a picture for today.</p><div>00dfCF-560015284.jpg.281f23abd2829101c62e6fdbe01f329c.jpg</div>

<p>Thanks, Q.G. I'm looking forward to seeing what images you will bring to the new thread this year. The picture, btw, was taken New Years Eve in either 1977 or 1978. The Kodachrome 25 was outdated and my dad gave me all of it I wanted from our camera store. Free film and cheap processing: those were the days.</p>

<p>Hello everyone. Sunday Farmers Markets are a highlite of the week for me.... I "starve" myself a bit on Saturday and have a late breakfast at the market.... In Hawaii, food that is delicious is "Ono", and the various vendors stamp that onto each plate!. I also stock up with the veggies.<br>

<p>I like how you captured the slickness and tonal range on your photograph re: Chambers Building. How did you achieve that look? </p>

<p>I am a late comer to b/w film. I have only done the development stage, no printing. I have shot with Delta 100 and HP5+; and Tri-X at 400 and 250. When I have shot with Delta 100 at the standard ID-11 rated at 100, I sitll have some grain on mine. Or is it your photo downsized or something? </p>

<p><strong>Ray</strong>, it's just a matter of getting to know what works best. The combination of film and developer used on that Chambers image produces very fine grain, and the PMK Pyro developer contributes to that "silky" look by producing negatives with a very big tonal range. Careful scanning is another major contributor. Of course, at the size these images are displayed on this Forum, I wouldn't expect to see much grain.</p>
