Public School I can’t read the number on the sign here, so I can’t tell you which public school in Brooklyn this is, but it was on 4th Avenue in Park Slope. Pentax 17, Kodak 5222, Beeranol. #BelieveInFilm #halfframe

The Geekery I stopped at this comic book store in Matawan to see if I could find something. Greg Pak visited this store when the first issue of his Death of the Silver Surfer came out, and I stopped by and met him in person for the first time, and […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

Palm Tree Lomography Turquoise is an amazing film. Leica R4, ECN-2 development. #BelieveInFilm

The Jansky Memorial Final shot of this. I framed this shot in the viewfinder so that the center two waves would fill the frame, and what I got was pretty much what I was trying to get with the previous shot, a close shot of the entire monument […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

The Jansky Monument Here’s the monument itself. It’s a stylized representation of the antenna Karl Jansky used to hear radio from outer space. This is a good example of how the viewfinder framing is incomplete with the Chroma Click; I framed this […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

The Jansky Monument A diptych with the Chroma Click of the Karl Jansky Monument outside the former Bell Labs site in Holmdel, New Jersey. Jansky created the science of radio astronomy, and it took a good 20 years before anyone understood the […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

Christmas Cow This building used to be a butcher’s shop. It’s now a chicken restaurant, but they kept the cow, and even decorated it for the holidays. This is from my second half-frame roll through the Chroma Click. Not seeing any light leaks here […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

The Writing Is On The Wall Oddly, this is more legible in this picture than it was in real life. There’s a lot to explore here. Saw this on a building in Highlands, New Jersey. Contax IIIa, Kodalith 6556 (EI 6), developed in Photographers’ Formulary TD-3. #BelieveInFilm

Free Parking In Rear My second roll through the Chroma Click was in half-frame mode, because I wanted to see what the lens did with less ground to cover. It’s hard to tell with this roll, though, because most of the photos suffered light leaks. I […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

Pedestrian Crossing Shot this on Tuesday with the first roll through my Chroma Click. First impressions: the lens at full frame has character to spare. Lots of edge blur, iffy focus. With its fixed focus and aperture, this appears to qualify for […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

Foggy Harbor Belford Harbor was enshrouded in fog yesterday. I thought it would be interesting to develop film shot in low contrast fog with high contrast developer and see what happened. I think it worked well. Smartflex 3445, Kodak Anastigmat […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

Tree Scan This is the scan of the negative used to make the Kallitype I posted earlier. It’s got that lith film look. Black and white doesn’t mean there has to be gray. Contax IIIa, Kodak Kodalith 6556, D-19 high contrast developer. #BelieveInFilm

Tree Almost 50 years ago, this was our Christmas tree. My folks got a live tree for a change, and planted it after Christmas. It has taken over this half of the front yard, swallowed up the power and phone lines, killed all the grass underneath […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]

DQ Grill & Chill We got a flat tire when we were driving to Florida last month. We found a tire store that was open on Sunday (a rarity) and they patched the tire. It was lunch time when they finished, so before hitting the road again, we got some […] [Original post on pixelfed.thereisnocat.com]
