Fuji Blues are like a punch on the nose, they certainly get you're attention.

Lovely stuff.

Yeah, I used a full roll of 50 on a poppy field.
I don't see a lot of difference between 50 and 100f, I think I'd rather stick with the extra speed of 100 in good light.
Velvia 50 probably comes into its own during longer exposures..

I like a bit of flare on a poppy shot, even when it's as subtle as that is. :D
 
I recently got some "high speed" slide film from boots to take some shots of kayaking... I shall post the results here, and I'm most interested to see what the comparison between boots own brand (manufactured by Fuji) and the real Fuji Velvia.

These are some images my son took as we walked some old train tracks... It is cool watching this eight year old, moving around and composing his shots.

All n All we walked about 1 mile maybe a tad more down these tracks...

Shots are cool, for an 8 year old, definitely got the eye (y)

I don't think they're as sympathetically scanned/pp'd as they could have been.
I think they are better than the scans suggest, but that's always the caveat when someone else does it, they have they're own idea of how they should look.
Its little things like the halos and usm, things you would try to correct if you were doing it yourself, that spotty herbert at scans'r'us wouldn't bother with.
I can't say nothing about scans really, mine are slide copied......:LOL:
You could check the negs and see if there are focus problems, hence the usm, and/or under-exposure issues.
You should chuck him a roll of slide film, see what he makes of them..:)
 
Those are great - the first one is really punchy. (y)
 
CLICKY

I dunno if you can still get it? I always called it Rodinol, although Google searches respond to both spellings.
 
They have it at silverprint, thats where I bought mine from, like...hurr....2 years ago.
Click AGFA > chemicals > b/w developers.
I've not opened the damn bottle yet, probably be off by the time I get round to it.
Ere, do you want it sprog, I can't match my ambition with action, heck, I'm not even shooting b/w:LOL:
I'm not sure Rodinal is the smoothest developer available for fine grain though.

Those are nice scans btw, scanning is half the battle.

Wouldn't mind joxby, what's the shelf life on an unopened bottle? I fell for that once with some Ilford stuff and all my film came out bright purple and blank, probably not worth the risk come to think about it.:crying:

What would you peeps recommend for a fine grain developer? I've read about some using very low concentrations and long development times to get the best tone & detail.
 
Grant was nattering about weak Rodinal solutions and really long development times, like...hours, a while back, he said tonally they were great, but grainy with it.

After 6 months in limbo we've just arrived at our new house and in the mean-time I've bought a scanner. As I was unpacking I came across these from my time out in the Balkans and given this week's events it seemed appropriate to chuck these up. They not for crit just for sharing, it was my first slr and I didn't know one end from the other, an Olympus IS-500 if memory serves me. Believe it or not I knew less about photography then than I do now ;).

We were asked to airlift two airconditioning units onto the top of these new UN or NATO buildings that were built in Sarajevo.

Apparently this building was an old government building before they bad guys shelled the arse out of it at which point the snipers moved in to pick off the women and kids. Nice place Bosnia.

Well, some ones got to ask...

What do we do in the greased pig competition..:cautious:

Ahh, its a meat packing place....

Today, twelve Cloughertys spanning three generations work together to insure Farmer John products are in keeping with the past. They closely supervise every detail of the packing process. Quality control is foremost. So, consumers are always assured fresh delivery daily. What's more, the Farmer John family responds to consumer demand with a growing selection of wholesome meat products. They include: a full line of lean, fresh-cut pork, savory sausage, wonderful wieners, franks, Polish sausage, bacon in two thicknesses, boneless smoked fully cooked ham, as well as a full assortment of pre-packed ready-to-eat luncheon meats, liver spreads and more. Hot or cold, for breakfast, lunch or dinner, Farmer John products always reflect high values and low prices. On the holidays, every day, families who know what's best put Farmer John products between their knives and forks.

The pork plant, located south of Los Angeles in Vernon, became a tourist attraction in 1957 when set painter Les Grimes was hired to decorate one of its walls with a farm scene.

Inside the Pantheon in Rome.
This is a scanned slide that I shot there in 1969.

1969.....:LOL:

like, my digital 1's and 0's will still be around in 39 years.....I think not, they're lucky to last a week the way I "filter" rubbish.

I like that, the darkness surrounding everything makes it quite abstract.
 
Some recent street stuff with provia 400x great slide film going to buy a load more of it.
