I loved my Yashica Mat and working with that larger format. In the late sixties and early seventies, I lived in San Francisco and had a not-too-convenient dark room in my apartment, but I lived a few blocks away from a city parks and recs, extremely well-run community dark room. I loved my time in the darkroom and for the past few years I have been trying to learn my way around the digital darkroom. Working with my old film in digital format has been a pleasant reminder of how much can be done with a B&W print. The cool news is that all of our old processes and goals can be accomplished faster, cheaper, with more control and finer, more specific application in the digital darkroom. You are going to have some fun!
Best, Phil

Thank you waegwan, back in those days, I bought Kodak Tri-X in 100 ft rolls, and developed it by often pushing a full stop or more. I sort of embraced the grain. The pleasant surprise is how much fun it is to work with these as digigal files. I appreciate you taking the time to comment.

Interesting, in those days I was shooting mostly 120 in TLRs. I too enjoy grain and high contrast. I shot a lot of Pan-X 100 because it was all I could get in 120 but every once in a while I'd get a roll of Tri-X 400. I developed my own film and made my own prints but it was community dark room so I had no control over the temp or age of the chemicals. It was always a little tricky to see what I'd get. Fortunately I enjoyed the time at the enlarger doing test strips, tilting, dodging and burning. I have just recently gotten a film scanner and started in that. :-)

No disrespect, but I think he'd make a better Santa Claus than a bouncer or doorman :b
Anyway, good catch :-)

Great catch, I love the shoes and the bird; they really make the photo for me :-)

Just walking into the PP sky


I really like this one, the contrast of elements the sky, the sea, the wall, the walkway and the man. The tone control is perfect. :-)

The human face acts as the canvas that displays the inner emotions.


Very nice set. I love capturing faces somewhat between poses when they are more natural like these :-)

I posted this photo as one of my favorites and Nalu requested that I try it in B&W. I do believe it is slightly better in B&W. Thanks Nalu for suggesting it. I sometimes think I get a bit carried away doing things in B&W or more often sepia.


Wow! What a catch! The IQ is stunning and the PP is perfect. This is the kind of work I can only dream about :-)

Out for a morning walk, saw the sun and shadows on these steps and thought this would make an interesting B/W….and waited until a subject was at the top.....


Very nice contrast, the figure at the top of the steps really makes the composition. You maximized being in the right place at the right time :-)

I am posting this in two sections (birds and black and white) To me, anyway, the pose, and apparent "attitude" of the bird conveys my impressions of what the bird represents. I am sure there are innumerable adjectives that might describe what is "in" the image, or perhaps not for some. Do you have one?

There is no need to pixel peep on this image. Not that great. It's the image as a whole that I like.

Hope you enjoy!


Artistically stunning! Thanks for sharing :-)
