Thanks for the feedback! This was my first time scanning B&W film myself, I just did a batch inversion from one reference frame and stopped adjusting when it looked fine.
Just went back and adjusted the black and white points based on the histogram, and it looks a lot better!
f1.4 is just the max aperture of the lens I used. I think this was shot around 1/15s f11. Not 100% sure on the aperture since I just set the camera to shutter priority.
This research paper seems to indicate that you could skip the decarb step if you will be steeping for ~60mins at a consistent boiling temperature. But it is likely much more effective to decarb for a few minutes prior to infusion. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5549281/#SD1
Nice! I like that you got the pigeon and tree trunk in focus, while the background elements are a little off kilter. Very fun shot!
Yep, small world! I took this around Xmas time. I was hoping for some snow, but the fog made up for it
Really nice framing in this photo!
They're dressed up for a thanksgiving day parade in Detroit. They were marching with a balloon of Captain Underpants.
Thanks!
I get that, things are always a little more calm and quiet when it's raining/foggy.
Thanks! This was a double exposure, so I blocked out half the frame with a tree trunk and took a shot. Then I flipped the camera and took another shot without advancing the film. The canon a1 has a switch specifically for this, so you can re-engage the shutter without advancing the film.
Thanks! Yep definitely not Hawaii. I didn't even know Hawaii had a chinatown, very cool!
Fuck lawns
In Michigan you can opt-in to always get a mail in ballot for every election. Highly recommended.
