well putting it in a freezer while it develops usually )desite some blue ffect etx with sx70 etc= slows down the process, but maybe it really dares the pics, we should investigate further, Sherlock :-D

Thanks to Richard I fell in love with Ratcatchter. Is it a screenshot then? Did some of my underwater-potography two days ago with black and white. Arghhhh why is my scannnerrrr dammmaaageedddd *cries bitterly*

^
One is a screenshot and the other is a restaging....! So a mixture...my scanner is broken but i'm using the one at work so i have to keep scanning and pretending its work related!!

well from my experiece, with these, yes, the dark ones if you want a ot of detail, but I am not really amazed by the contrast itself but rather by the blckness of it. Mine can be very dark but there is n ver darkish grays and black, like in yours, so I do achieve contrast, but not such one as yours, thats what I mean, it must have been a really well conserved film.
^
yeah it was in a fridge for years I think...the guy had a lot but i ended up paying some ridiulous amount because i got confused with multiple item bidding! I also put it in the freezer to develop after i shot it which may have done something...

I always do that + filter..guess you are luckier with yours!
^
yeah i had a filter- one was really awful and you couldn't see anything apart from some vague outline but these ones worked...mind you - every other pic on my camera seems to lately come out very dark so i'm not sure why...! i guess it depends on which film you get!

beautiful! It's so expressive... pity the 600 BW film is so expensive!
^
i know, really costs too much- its such a heart wrench buying it when i could buy so many FP 100C films in its place!! Thank you so much for your kind comments, I am glad you like them!

Black and white is always something special. I like the polaroid greytones a lot. They are so soft.
I am looking forward to see more too.

The photo taken is more precious than the empfty film in the camera. Think of this :D

^
indeed- it is always more precious :) thank you for your kind comments! I am glad you like my first experiments...

i can't get enough of this film!

^

great experiment
hope to see more soon

^
thank you! yes i intend to make a series of these but don't want to waste the precious film so will think of more subjects- luckily the many camera means i can leave this film in there and use the others till i find the perfect subject!
