  1. I shot and developed my first sheets of color 4x5 (#Ektar100) this evening. My chems hadn’t been touched in a month or two, but they are sealed in glass bottles with little air space at the top. The developer wasn’t super brown so I felt optimistic. As usual, the Stearman Press tank leaked like crazy. Even after doing the “squeeze me” trick, and even while “burping” the blix before every set of inversions. It appears to be at the filling/venting caps as opposed to the gasket around the lid. If I shoot 4x5 regularly, I might try one of the Jobo tanks which would also allow me to use rotational agitation.

    The emulsion on the color sheets seems to be a lot more slippery than on the Arista 100 I have shot previously in my #CrownGraphic. Several of the sheets fell out of the hanging clips and into the bottom of the bathtub…I had to pick each up, re-rinse it, use my finger to sort of “squeegee” the top edge of the negative, and use a fresh dry clip.

    Four exposures now hanging safely to dry. Two are super overexposed. One because my shutter stuck open on the 1 second setting (I need to get the thing worked on, slowest speeds are unreliable) and one I forgot to stop down before firing the shutter. There went $14! I was at the very last bit of light before sunset so I had to shoot slower than I’d hoped - I was unable to access my first intended location so had to call an audible.

    The negatives don’t look amazing, but I think that may be because I don’t shoot color much. Every other time I’ve thought they looked terrible once they’re backlit on the scanner they look nice. Hopefully this will be one of those times.

  7. I've always loved Lake View Cemetery next to Cleveland Ohio. Its a great place to go on a run. This is a multi-exposure shot of Jeptha Wade Obelisk, its atop the hill looking over towards the lake, right up past the more popular Haserot Angel in the cemetery. The cemetery has a lot of well know individuals buried there, President Garfield, Eliot Ness, Rockefeller, Harvey Pekar, and many others.
