Another darkroom picture

Not very creative, I know...

Forgot the blog again...

Oops, forgot to post here again. My project has continued:

The kitchen sink, day 3 of my instant picture a day project.

Making coffee... a few dishes left from last night.

Lit just by the tube above.

1/30th, f/5.6, 3200 EI on Manfrotto tripod with cable release. I could have used 1/60th f/3.8 hand held but I thought I'd use the tripod for once. I do love the indoor versatility of this FP-3000B film for that though, so fast like Ilford Delta 3200 which you can also get in 120 size if you want to use this instant film for previews and lighting checks instead of silly one a day projects like mine.

35 seconds developing before I peeled the picture out. The picture got stuck at the end in the rollers as I was pulling it out as it was against a cupboard door and it was on a tripod so there is a bit of a lighter streak in the dark strip to the right because it got more developing solution for a few seconds before I got the picture out.

The Polaroid a day thing has been done a long time ago so this is nothing new but I still thought it would be fun, hopefully my ending won't be as sad:

My project will probably be a dog's breakfast of subjects so what better subject for the second day than my dog eating breakfast, which happens really fast so I had to work quickly here. I'd prefocused and metered beforehand and considered using a tripod but my dog ate at a different angle than he usually does so I was glad not to be tethered to a tripod, I usually am.

This is Fujifilm Instant Black and White FP-3000B, a 3200 ISO film so I was able to shoot hand held for 1/30th of a second at f/3.8 with my Mamiya RB67 Professional S using the standard Mamiya Sekor C 90mm f/3.8 lens.

I've started an instant film picture a day project. Felt I might as well resurrect the old blog too...

I love instant film. A picture right away. Almost as fast as digital but a real picture.

I love the system medium format camera. Polaroid back, back with B&W film, back with color film, if I had $10000 I could add a digital back, change lenses, change finders, add a flash bracket grip. So versatile.
