Tarky7  Pro User  says:

I took the shot using one of my Pentax 6X7 cameras using a Poloroid back loaded with Type 665 (positive negative) film. The film produces and instant black and white image as well as a negative. The negative was cleared using a mix of sodium sulphide podwer and water. Then a print was made using some ancient Portrega paper, which had a sepia cast, the final 8X10 print was scanned in on another ancient device, a Umax Vist S-12 flatbed, and them slightly enriched using photoshop.

The info is listed here as a reference to those who are embarking on shooting with film. Poloroid 665, and its coresponding 4X5 film, Type 55 are a really great way to get the instant gratification of digital with the fantastic viseral quality of Silver Halide Black and White.

Thanks Taj, Osiris, Okaypro, laurie and trini for the comments !

My pinhole shoots 665, but the results
aren't quite like this :P

What kind of lens/focus did you use? *Really* appreciate
you posting the info.

Osiris, Pentax 6X7 with the 105 mm / 2.4 lens and the macro extension tubes, shot wide open (2.4) opening a 1/2 stop to compresate for the extension tube, 30th sec exposure hand held bracing against a tripod. Light was daylight augmented with a HMI frenel for bounce ( Lowel Omni would do the trick)

Thanks resinacacia, SSBSCPand Lisa exposed !

The whole composition, plus the black/brown/white and great contrast. Superb shot. Well worth the effort you apparently put into taking it.

This is my very first favourite on Flickr :) (apart from 1 photograph of me myself (as in me as the subject) ;-))

Hi, I'm an admin for a group called SML Fine Art = 大中小藝 = SML ファインアート, and we'd love to have your photo added to the group.

1. Fantastic composition. This photograph stands out from the rest of your photographs and I agree with Flickr's interestingness algorithm. Some other ones I'm not sure (yet) but possibly because I'm not so into women.

2. You are quite a person and fulfill quite a bit of the qualities I seek for my next venture. (see first paragraph in SML Wiki: How to unGoogle yourself for details).

3. I created a wiki page for you as a result:

SML Wiki: Kit Latham

4. And, as previously mentioned, you do need a hub. See: SML Universe

5. Oh god why are you not gay? You'll make for an ideal husband for me. :) If you have no idea what an ideal husband is for me, check out SML Ideal Husbands.

6. Aside from having presence on those networking sites, I also have domain names pointing to those sites.

7. I would like to initHHI with you. You sound way too precious. Do you skydive?

Crazy is good.

Cheers,
See-ming

'Aww, shucks'

initHHI

I have not sky dived before, but I have no fear of heights. Last week I was taking photographs from a low flying Cessna 172, and he was bring the plane to almost full stalls to get some of the shots.

Thank you so much for your compliments, and you are right, this image does stand out, I have others from that same time but I have not posted them on Flickr yet.

Funny, you mentioned the Wiki, I have started to build a Wiki about 10 days ago, but I am up to my ass in alligators right this second, for the next 3 days I am under water with work, I have several clients that I am doing a combined SocNetWrkng Viral Campaigns as well as finishing their Wordpress blogs, one is a full Gallery WP integration. I just love Open Source and open APIs
