The Still Life

Paper Negatives


I am in the process of writing an article about this process for those who are unfamiliar with the concept and possibilities. www.ipernity.com/blog/kiwivagabond/501429 There is of course the historical process of paper negatives and more contemporary styles of shooting with paper in your camera instead of film and processing that in a traditional darkroom process.

© Graham Hughes 2015 All Rights Reserved Silver gelatin paper negative process. Developed and scanned. Rolleicord 1A TLR Taken as a test inside Gallery259 with this camera. Triotar Lens. A bit of background... One thing I have always wanted is a good TLR. I like the square frame and the waist level thang.......and they just have that feel. My Pentacon 6 is the same but the shutter timing has gone all weird....and am processing how to sort that......I shoots paper and I am okay wit that ......but I loved it with film. I have tried various cheap TLRs.Lubitel, Ricohflex, other Rolleicords but they have never really worked consistently, or not worked at all. BUT I love them. This 1A fell into my lap and these were a quick test with some paper before I finished my weekend @Gallery259.
