Tripodplaces

A more abstract street shot. I’ve had a 8X12 of this on my whiteboard for a few weeks now¹ and once I get my darkroom set up, I intend to make a bigger one to frame².

Technical details

Leica M3, 50mm Summicron, Neopan 400, developed by my lab in Ilford chemistry.

Why I like it

It’s something new for me, but one of the first shots where I really think I got to the gist of B&W photography (at least what I want to do with it).

1. Whiteboards are great for keeping test prints. Much like a pinboard, but with the ability to add notes. [↩]
2. Unfortunately, my normal lab prints B&W shots on colour paper, which doesn’t look as good as I want it, you get a kind of pinkish undertone in the midtones. [↩]
