Is this a b/w photography account now?
Idk, but I’m having fun. #lastoftheroll from the last couple rolls (Ilford Delta 400) Old Jena 50mm on the close-focus limit is totally my jam, man. It also tends to jam there. Man. There’s nothing happening in these shots, which is why I like them.

last night at Mauerpark
Ihagee Exa with a Hanimex 90-230mm f/4.5 lens that weighs about three tons and has the size and shape of a very big black …pepper grinder. Lens attached to tripod with the comparatively dainty camera dangling off at the end. Not the most practical of combinations, tbh. Exposure time 10s or so, on Ilford Delta…

experiments in process abuse
these are all prints on Ilford MGRC (black and white) paper, which makes very nice colors when left unfixed and then exposed to light 1 – developer, no fixer, slightly bleached in hydrogen peroxide (which turned it brown), the color circle is exposure with a desk lamp 2 – developer, no fixer, citric acid, hydrogen…

shed. Ihagee Exa, Ilford Delta 400, darkroom-printed on ~40 year old ORWO photo paper which still worked, somewhat surprisingly. I messed up the black border in the top left but hey – gives it character or whatever.

Farbfilm vergessen
Farbfilm vergessen Process notes: Ihagee Exa; f5.6 unless I bumped it, 1/150s because the Exa doesn’t go any faster. Ilford Delta 400, split-grade printed. Need more practice with split-grade printing, absolutely zero intuition there. I mean the results are okayish but that was more down to the universe than down to me. Also I need…
