Show us yer film shots then!

I agree ^^^
 
Wow thanks all, really appreciate it! Portra 400 has the most amazing subdued colour pallette, not to mention absolutely incredible latitude.

freecom2: I don't mind critique at all, don't worry. On my calibrated monitor the difference isn't actually that great, but it appears dimmer as it is shade light only whereas the other has more direct light. That said it probably wouldn't hurt if it was 1/4-1/3 stop lighter.

It's a stunning film, and what you are doing with it doesn't hurt either.

Thanks - only because some people get so touchy about even the lightest of comments, have to cover my back sometimes (although luckily F&C isn't anything like this). True, agreed on a slight increase - it's still a good picture nevertheless, as I'm sure you know :)
 
I spent 2.5 hours yesterday afternoon shooting some 5x7 images around the old redundant filters at Tottiford Treatment Works. I decided to use divided Pyrocat HD this morning to process the images but instead of using 1:20 for 6 minutes which I normally use for divided Pyrocat HD I used the normal 1:100 for 6 minutes. After following all the steps as I normally would I became a bit suspicious when washing the HP5+ negatives as the wash water was coming out pink after leaving the Expert Drum, this stangely became 'more pink' the longer I left the film washing. Took the lid off the 3006 and I had 6 slightly pink clear sheets of film.

To compound the error, I was so convinced I had my processing 'off pat' I decided for the first time since starting with large format not to shoot a second negative of the shots and made do with just the one negative from each of the 6 shots, as I have been storing up a lot of duplicates I probably will never process.

Doh!

 
Bloody hell Ed! What a nightmare, I've had it a couple of times but never as bad as this.

Only the positive side you can now post in the '100 Ways to Ruin a Film' thread.

Back to the drawing board eh?
 
When I built my 6x12 camera, the first two rolls of film all had shots like that.

EDIT: Actually, no. My film was completely black.

GF670, Portra 400. More here. I've been doing all my work in film in 2013. I love it.

I dont care about quoting this again, absolutely gorgeous.

Also love Ed's black sheep at night shot ;)
 
Osh. 2 more exquisite squares. Great light, super subjects. You really are the Velvia king.
 
Thank you so much again people. Osh, another two really solid landscapes, you are building up quite a portfolio. Those Velvia colours are insanely nice.

Another one from the same shoot as earlier..

Beginning to think we should ban OSH, his pictures are stunning and showing me up!

Just to bring the quality back down a notch :p

Love this Andy, nice to see some more from the Mamiya.
 
wow... I leave the forum for a couple of days and return to all this awesomeness....

beautiful work
 
H'mm this is turning into a "pro's" thread with all these excellent shots.
 
Okay maybe not a 'proper' scan of a negative or something but today marks a big step in my traditional photography.

2 years ago I took my first photos on film, 3 months ago I developed my first black & white film and today I printed from a negative!
 
Following the recent board activity on the Fuji GW690 need/lust/purchase front, here is a sample image from early 2012 using my ex-Japan well-worn version.

The big wheel in Manchester:

Well done mate, its a magical moment when the image appears on paper.

Andy
 
Nicely done Dave, hopefully my lust will be satisfied this week....well until something else comes along that I can't live without. :lol:
 
Thanks Andy, like me I'm sure you'll marvel at how good something with the aesthetics of a house brick really can be!
 
A frog.....dunno if the colours are right as I took the shot about 30 years ago, and the frog is dead now. erm I resized it in photobucket to 1000px but it didn't work.
Oh forgot:- Rollei SL66 80mm planar lens

Tom, Brian - those are some really nice portraits of two very different looking subjects.

Posted some trolley images 11 pages back. Here are some more. Still Ektar 100 and on the GF670. These are all shot around the Brent Cross shopping centre in residential areas.
