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.

Silver gelatin paper negative scanned , inverted...then digitally kissed gently if at all needed in Nik Silver FX and PS CC. Vintage Ernmann 5 x 7 LF Camera, Lense 1944 7" F 2.5 Kodak Aero Ektar. Tetenal paper for negative developed in Moersch Eco 4812. These are shots from my first day of using this lense. This lense has come to life as if re-incarnated in contemporary times as a portrait lense on a Speed Graphic, that's where the cool seems to be. I realised that my use here is maybe back to some kind of close to its intended purpose..........not landscapes.....but the whole aerial photography thing, (I know this image is far from aerial). I like what it does. I really do.
