blog tag: Rodinal

Pictures developed in Rodinal.

Kurdish protests in Düsseldorf

Film has one disadvantage that I normally see as an advantage: Processing it involves more than just copy & paste. A lot of effort and skill goes into developing film and especially with black and ...

that big bear

Last year in January I was facing a huge backlog of pictures to post-process after not editing anything for about 2 or 3 months. I thought that I needed to catch up to be able ...

canal television

Flying with film can be a bit difficult, especially if you’re flying with high ISO film and the police officers don’t know how to use the machine for hand-checking the film. Since I was travelling ...

trains

After 11 hours of cars, planes and bus rides I was really really tired today. Do you think though that this kept me from scanning my first roll of Leica pictures to see how they ...

pointers

This morning it was snowing and snowing and snowing. So much that we even considered building a snowman! However, it was just too cold and we didn’t have any good gloves for that sort of ...

pray

With -8°C out there we actually decided to have a warm day in today. There isn’t much to report apart from the fact that I have shot 21 rolls of film with my Leica so ...

like a good friend

The last few days I’ve been scanning a lot, and still, I have about 14 developed rolls lying around here waiting to be scanned and another 10 rolls to be developed. I have given up ...

How to develop black and white film the lazy way

A lot of people feel rather intimidated by doing their own film development at home. I definitely understand it, I was worried myself and didn’t dare to try it myself until after someone else showed ...

abstraction

These days not only the dismal weather is a hindrance, but also the darkness. Since we went to tango a little later today I had to go out earlier to shoot a couple of rolls, ...

on sale

On some days I can really understand why Vivian Maier never showed her work to anyone. Although I generally get very good feedback from my blog and know that a lot of people like it, ...

silent observer

Every week I try to at least shoot 3 rolls of film, two rolls of 35mm and one roll of 120. Sometimes I shoot way more, but some weeks are difficult. My health has a ...

partner look

Half the fun of film photography for me is a healthy amount of experimentation. Yesterday I was bulk loading my first roll of film from a 100ft roll of XP2 and now I’m eager to ...

Making of: historical re-enactors

In case you ever wondered what it looks like when I shoot my pictures, here is a little glimpse: namely a picture my husband took of me while I was taking a street portrait of ...

black and white (eye-)candy

Tri-X and I seem to have a little love-hate relationship going on. At first I didn’t like it at all, mainly because I only ever tried it in Rodinal and shot it with a yellow ...

feeding the birds

Creative work seems to be a constant up and down. On some days everything seems to fall into place effortlessly and on others I just don’t seem to be able to get anything right. Lately ...

(cos)playing

Yesterday I felt like the universe was trying to prevent me from shooting. Just as I was about to go for a walk with my Rollei it started pouring down. Today I remedied the situation ...

surreal

I was surprised when I saw the results from this roll. The experience of shooting it was really a rather rough one. I didn’t know the city too well and just wanted to shoot a ...

hope

On my last trip I actually moved out of my comfort zone quite a bit and asked some people whether I could take their picture. It was not quite on the level of street portraiture ...

old fashioned

During the last few weeks I’ve been developing film and only looking at the results with a magnifying glass rather than scanning them right away. It was an exercise in patience and now I’m getting ...

se un agente del kaos

I have now finished developing all the black and white rolls that I brought back from my most recent trip. I even developed some from before as well, which means that in total I developed ...
