I love the strong shadows, Fran. They give scene a very surreal appearance.

The way the shadows play around the couple work very well, an almost surreal photo, nice one Fran

I am the lucky one, who received this photo, and looked at it every day since I got it. I read so often here about the difference between the scan end the print. Now I know better what was meant. The print is absolutely lovely and also shows the whole texture of the windows in the highlights. By the way, my very first FB print that I hold in my hands. Hope to get there as well, though I nevertheless appreciate modern RC paper. Frank

Would love to know more about this picture - subject matter and technical details but on face value it is intriguing.

Kind words there - thank you all.


Some details then - I shot this on a photo walk about in Dublin over Christmas 2017. I shot it on a Holga, and the light was strong and contrasty - which I think really suits the Holga. I knew when I saw the shadows this was a shot. The film is Berger panchro 400, stand developed in Rodinal 100:1 for an hour, inversions at the half way mark. This gives a fairly flat neg that is easier to print - especially when the image itself is contrasty. So at printing stage, I did need to add in a fair bit of contrast. The paper itself is MCC110, which I like a lot, but am just out of now. I used dektol I think for the paper development.


I think the Holga has some fantastic strengths and if you use it where it works well, you can get great interesting results. I think city shots are especially well suited to it, something significant in the fore to mid ground, don't expect fine detail!
