Blogging In Black and White

Rainy weather and tapeless workflows have had me thinking about shooting film...
I’ve got some rolls of Tri-X 100, T-Max 400, and Ilford 100 laying around somewhere, but no darkroom access makes me a sad panda (because they’re black and white!).

These are 11x14 fiber prints. I had to archive them by shooting instead of scanning because I didn’t have access to a big enough scanner at the time.

While I appreciate all of the technical advantages that modern DSLRs and Photoshop/ACR/Lightroom/Aperture/etc. offer, I’ll always love the darkroom environment more than a computer. it’s generally relaxing (the same can’t usually be said of digital printing workflows), and the uncertainty makes it much more rewarding!
