Here's one from my other thread:

A few Tri-X. Middle shot with a 19mm vivitar with much vignetting due to a polarizer. Here, though, I don't mind. Again, poor scans.

I don't know what it is about these, but I really like them! ''allot''

Thanks! I took them at the Shaolin temple and bird sanctuary in China. This is where Buddhism took hold in China, and, almost as importantly, kung fu. They were developed at a little lab in Jeonju, Korea, where I was living. This lab always gave me the best prints. I typically like high contrast b/w, and they seemed to read my mind.

I tried large format 4x5 today and got these.

Good composition, but look like they are a full stop dark to me.

My first try at using a slide copier to copy a negative. I got an excellent condition Auto Bellows M from B&H last week and a near mint slide copier from ebay that arrived today. I figured that I'd save money over getting crappy scans done at by whichever processing place I used, and prefer it over a scanner.

This was the only negative on a roll of Fuji Superia 400, I believe, that actually came out. It was probably taken about 5 years ago with a ZX10 and Tamron 28-300mm, and not processed until about a month ago. It's not the best picture but I just wanted to show of the fruit of my labor. Plus, I'm pretty excited about my new setup.

The negative was copied using a K-7, Auto Bellows M, Slide Copier K, and M 50mm 1.4 at f8. Imported into Lightroom, exported as a non-compressed TIFF, imported into GIMP where the orange cast was removed and the color was inverted, and auto white balance applied. The AWB worked very well I think.

Anyway, considering how much I just wrote the photo should probably be better, but here it is anyway.

An OLD shot, circa 1979 (approx) Moon over Cades Cove - Pentax MX with (I believe) a Sigma 28mm f2.8 on Ilford HP5...
