I too was moved by this story and the picture you posted (was that yours...Lost in thought?) Excellent work! I am a psychotherapist by trade and photographer by volition. I am always taken by the power of a photograph. The ability to reveal the soul is what makes the difference between a snap shot and a piece of art.

Hi there,

I'd guess the trickiest problem I have, well in the category of

little annoying things that ruin negatives, is keeping the film

holders dust free. I've tried the drudgery of vaccuum cleaners, I've

tried canned air.

Anyone have a favorite method that works? Has anyone tried OnePass

rollers?

Any thoughts would be appreciated.

Hi folks,

I've seen some great looking lith prints and would like to try my

hand at it. Already made one mistake! I looked up lith developers

at Calumet and ordered Nacco Lith. It was for negatives! Sheesh!

Anyway, as I understand, lith paper is not needed, but lith developer

is. So first off, where can I find lith paper developer (I can't

find it anywhere in the states) and secondly, do you folks have any

other tips on getting started. Thanks!

With a blush, I must admit, because I want to use readyloads. After having some (not many but some nice negs) negs ruined with dust in just the wrong place, I'd like to give the ready loads a try. Sadly, Kodak seems to want to limit that market to TMX.

I'm wanting to experiment with pushing tmax sheet film two stops.

First off, is that a good idea to even try?! Secondly, I've found a

lot of data on pushing sheet film in rotary processors and in tanks.

But I perfer to tray develop my film. Are there handy guidelines for

this? Thanks!
