The rest is up to the hybridizer. They are entitled. Taxonomists are mostly not liked. You finally learn and remember a name then they change it.

Coop Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 We use to get an abundance of Robins that would move thru on their way to somewhere. No longer though. We were in Navasota, 100 miles west of Houston visiting friends about 3 months ago and they were everywhere for one day only, then moved on. Reminds me of an ex employee.

Tpt life Posted May 10, 2020 Report Share Posted May 10, 2020 Many of the Robins, that often leave here mid-winter, stuck around. This was a really mild winter here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Gary Beasley Posted May 13, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 13, 2020 Im learning to do an archaic photographic process call Van Dyke printing. I ordered a few chemicals I lacked, mixed up the sensitizing solution and painted it on to a sheet of all cotton paper and let it dry. Earlier today I resized the shell of a bank of black lights Id built for alternative processes like this so I could hang it under the work table of my enlarger and put a shelf right under it to put the contact frame under the lights. First I did a test strip with a calibrated step scaled to determine exposure time, next one I put the scale on one end of the paper and a negative I shot at Sloss Furnaces in Alabama, an empty corner of the pump room. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wtnhighlander Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 So, this process develops under UV, not visible light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gary Beasley Posted May 14, 2020 Report Share Posted May 14, 2020 Its mostly uv sensitive. Its also whats called a print out process in that the image forms during the exposure. In this case processing is basically washing the remaining sensitizer out in running water then putting it in a weak fixer bath where it darkens some. During drying it gets even darker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Immortan D Posted May 28, 2020 Popular Post Report Share Posted May 28, 2020 Without anything better to do, I grabbed my 17 years old Sony DSC-F828 and started shooting boring objects around the house. My goal was to get the "perfect" pict right out of the camera, without any post-processing whatsoever. Here are a few examples: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
