Dry plate tintype

Happy Holidays!
Happy Holidays! At least Jake’s got what he always wanted… 😉 … and perhaps so have I. The blog just got a makeover. This year’s been difficult for me to…

Boy’s Room
Also taken this spring: gold-toned kallitype on arches HP 140#. Shot with a Mamiya 7, HP5+, developed in Xtol. And this is gold toner #2 at the end of its…

Vague Recollection
From a photo walk through Durham Township a few weeks ago, this shot of the interior of the Durham Mill was taken with a Widelux F-V: a 35mm panoramic camera.…

Nesting
Walked outside today while my wife and son were raking leaves, and found this seemingly-happy bird nesting in one pile… good thing it left before I started shredding them! In…

Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day 2011
Made with a homemade matchbox pinhole camera, shot on Acros 100, and developed in DD-X. Almost all of my shots were terribly over-exposed, which I find rather unbelievable but undeniable.…

It’s That Simple
This one takes some explaining; it’s some of what’s been eating up my time for the past few weeks. This shot started life on HP5+ developed in Xtol. I digitally…

A Bit of Snow
Most of my shots recently seem to be of this fella, and I’ve grown a bit reluctant to keep posting him… but I just can’t resist this one. Had I…

Velociraptor Jake
Ilford HP5+, Microphen. This shot was rescued from a roll that I terribly over-developed (… apparently 18 minutes at 75 degrees is too long for EI 12500). Back story: Jake…

Study In Blue
I’m still getting used to having a computer that doesn’t crash randomly any more – the ability to dive in, find a shot, and post it feels totally alien. (Thanks…

Super Powers
One of the most wonderful parts of visiting family in Germany was watching Jake interact with all of them. Like this superhero battle, where (seemingly) Spider-Man is doing battle with…

Harvest Festival Hayfight

Where Did I Leave That Statue?
Proving that I’m still alive (or that some clever facsimile thereof is able to post to my photoblog): Acros 100 + Microphen. Which, should you try to Google for it,…

He watched the Earth fly past.
From the old to the new! I’ve been slowly stepping through cameras of the 20th century – 1930s and 40s Voigtländers, 1950s Ricohs. Well, my two Ricoh Diacords failed while…

The Graduate
While I don’t really understand why we have to have a “graduation ceremony” for pre-K, I have to say that it was a helluva lot of fun to shoot.
