this is amazing photograph, very dreamlike and painterly. I don't entirely understand the process, eg did you use both type59 and 669 film for this shot? If i understand correctly, you used 669 chemicals to properly expose the type 59?

^ Thanks, basically I took the old dried 59 chemicals and replaced it with 669 chemicals, unfortunately the amount of chemicals on the 669 is not enough to cover the film are of 59.Just give the 59 negative the normal exposure. |

Heyyy congrats Rom! You had SOTD the day I went away, and you have it again the day I get back! This one is seriously awesome, don't think I've seen it before? I love that f2.5, so dreamy....
|
^ Hey SF, wondering where you are, don't tell me you went to the US again ;=) Yeah the 2.5 lens is great but huge and heavy, 5 lbs. Your speed graphic camera that I sent to you have a focal curtain so it can accommodate old barrel lens which I think are just fantastic. Hope all is well. |

how do you get the 669 pods to work with your larger film?
|
^ easy, just exposed the expired/dried 4x5 film first, then take out the pods from 669 and put a double sided tape. I used the bathroom with just the night light on, then proceed to remove the dried pods and attach the 669 pods in its place, then develop the film. |
