Projected Portraits

Yesterday I began a project. Friends and relatives of my mother's came to visit at my father's place. I made portraits of most of the guests with my middle format TLR Seagull camera. My intention is to develop the films at home and then send the portraits as postcards to the guests.

I made something like 20 exposures on two films. The first is a Portra 160 - i. e. a colour film. The other one is a b&w Ilford 125. Both will be developed in Caffenol - a process I have yet to try. The Portra will in the process turn into a b&w negative.
The following step is to scan the negatives and turn them into printable png files.
I will document the process and publish it here on the blog.

Digi Bewe Oh

I really like the look of the b&w pictures that I get out of the Samsung NV7 digital camera. I only use it for black & white photography since the colour pictures are very bleak. At least when compared to the ones that I get with my Fujifilm cameras. And the grains really evoke the impression of black & white film. A friend of mine documents solitary bees making homes behind this plexi glass screen. No digital tweaking was made apart from the flying bee picture. These pictures are straight out of the camera.
