Back on March 17th, St. Patricks Day, I processed a batch of 4" x 5" color negatives on my Jobo Processor. This was with the old processor, shortly before it died. Since then I've replaced the processor with a new CPP-3 version. I mixed up a Jobo C-41 press kit that I had in stock. The process is really simple and consists of just a sort pre-soak, followed by 3:30 minutes in developer, 6:30 minutes in bleach/fix, and then a wash. A short bath in a stablizer solution is required at the end. The process temperature is quite high, at 40C, and this is what makes the Jobo unit ideal.
This particular shot was taken on the Apparitions outing to Vancouver Island last October. I was out there with my friends Arturo and Chris and we spent a week exploring and photographing. This shot was taken on October 25th at around noon. I used my Ebony view camera and a slightly wide 125mm lens. The film was Kodak Ektar 100, exposed at F20.0 for 1/2 second. No filter was used.
This is a shot of the now abandoned Vancouver Island Railway. I understand that a section of the line down around Nanaimo is still in use, but it has been shut down to all points north. This is the crossing over Rosewall Creek, in the Provincial Park of the same name, near Mud Bay.
