47mm F8 F32 4x5 Norma HP5 by Nokton48, on Flickr

My widest LF lens, the chrome 47mm F8 Super Angulon in Compur shutter. Mounted on an original Sinar Norma Recessed Lensboard. Tim Kelly lighting, extreme close-up, lens less than a foot away from my test target. Three Broncolor Pulso C171 Monolights plus fill panel, HP5+ 4x5 (in Linhof Plate Holder) D:23 1;1 in 8x10 Unicolor Unidrum and Uniroller. 8x10 4X print Arista #2 RC Multigrade dev Omega DII laser aligned 180 black Rodagon Omegalite Diffusion Head

In close up mode this lens -almost- covers 4x5. You can see that in the four corners of this shot

I'm going to add one more thing, a Broncolor Strip Light (30cmx110cm) up high and behind pointed down. Soft light to rim the subject and provide separation from the background. That will be the icing on the cake.

Derek, I like this one! Using it as an example though, I have been curious about Kenmere film and your post here might be a go-to for me to develop it (or other) film I shoot based on what you or others here do that appeals. Since the upgrade I found myself reading the head-bartender's Initial Post for the thread where he asked for Film and Developer to be included. I notice many nice posts even on this page where that info is absent.

So to everyone, not to be a pain in the arse but, I echo Stephen's charge with this thread to include that (Film, Developer, Dilution and Time) info as it is instructive.

Great thread, several on this current page.....David
 
I am not sure if these have been posted here before. They were taken on a trip around parts of the South Pacific in the late 1980's early 1990's on a sailing ship "The Eye of the Wind". The images were shot with a Pentax camera (I cannot recall which model) and a zoom lens (ditto) on Fuji color slide film (I know this as I used it pretty much exclusively back then). When digitized they were converted to black and white. All of the following images were shot on various islands in the Louisiade Archipeligo - to the east of Papua New Guinea.

I love this first one (Red coat Green Hat) but also enjoy seeing you in color Helen. I'm guessing color because it was taken with Eric's camera?

Thank YOU David~
Yes,love the photo of Eric too.
Eric took that photo of me, with the 35 pre asph lux. Color we both hardly ever used.

btw, Adore the mood of your color photos above

Hey David.
I use Adox Rodinal for most everything. I think this was 7ml to 500ml for 8 mins at 68F

Thanks for that Derek. And now I feel like the Dev-Nazi asking everyone to include all that info. I suppose we can always ask for specifics when we want it. I had just read Stephen's request in opening post and thought maybe good to refresh that. And I was curious.

I use the same as you mostly. I always liked Rodinal and still find it works great. If I'm smart, I will limit myself to a couple films (Iford is always good) and fine-tune what I do in the tank. 1:50 seems to work for me and it's quicker than 1:100 :p getting my times better zoned in is what I need to do. I may also try Stand Development sometime with a roll or two in spite of the hour long commitment.

I have used stand Dev several times, always works but of course takes longer. I find semi stand works better for me. Ever try caffenol? you might like that as well.
