On October 22nd, on the Fall Photo trip with the Monochrome Guild, Gordon, Helena and I went out for a morning drive. Arturo wanted to sleep in, and Nigel had to take part in some online meetings. The three of us headed southeast from East Coulee, down to Dorothy. It was a rather frosty and cool morning, as we weren't really used to winter conditions yet. The light was spectacular, and we took advantage of the opportunity to take a few photographs.
I shot this one on 8x10 film and processed it a couple weeks ago, together with some of the other images that I've recently posted. This is a sheet of Ilford FP4+125, rated at 100 iso and developed in Perceptol 1:1, for 11:45 minutes. I ran this batch on my Jobo processor.
This is an old farm house near Dorothy. I was drawn to the old kids bicycle beside it. I shot this at about 11:00 in the morning on October 22nd. I used my Chamoix 810V camera and a Nikkor-W 240mm lens. I added a #8 yellow filter to increase separation in the cedar shingles on the wall, lighten the value of the grass, and lower the value of the sky. The exposure was for 1/8 second at F36.0.
