Dec. 16? Houses and Trees
I swear that I had scheduled this Lumenbox lens post for today, I distinctly remember clicking on 16 and hitting schedule. I’ll try the same thing with the post I’m writing right now. Who knows if that will work? Edit: WordPress scheduling is broken I guess. I definitely scheduled this to post at midnight and…

Dec. 9, Blurry
I was finishing up a roll of Adox CMS 20 II that I was shooting at ISO 12 when I decided to finish the roll with indoor shots. As you can imagine this resulted in some quite long exposures that required a tripod and cable release, which was all fine and good until I decided…

Dec. 1, 14 Frames of November’s Odds and Ends:
Yikes! I was supposed to post the odds and ends from the end of November yesterday. Instead, here they are a day late and a dollar short, there are more than I expected for what I recall as a somewhat photographically lean month. I’m over 65% sure that these have not been posted before (maybe…

Nov. 11, 10 Frames of Reno Alleys with Adox CMS
I hope you’re not getting too tired of seeing photographs shot with Adox CMS II? It’s a film that seems to always pleasantly surprise me and I currently have several rolls on hand that I plan to shoot in the near future. The Adox Adotech IV, the developer recommended by Adox and the only developer…

Nov. 1o, A Tree Sampler,
I love taking photographs of trees and I hate taking photographs of trees. To be clear, I’m a great admirer of trees, but sadly, my depictions never seem to do them justice. The very three dimensional and extremely textural qualities of trees almost never translate well to the cropped two dimensional frame of the photograph.…

Nov. 9, Adox CMS II, How do I Love Thee?
I know that I’m easily amused, but I’m always amazed at how many black and white films exhibit distinctly different characteristics depending upon how they’re exposed and developed. Adox CMS 20 II is certainly one of those films. On the bottle of Adotech IV, the recommended developer for CMS, it gives instructions for developing CMS…

Nov. 2, Learning to See with a 50mm Serenar and Adox CMSII
Typically I don’t get on all that well with 50mm lenses, I find their field of view just too narrow and constraining, but yesterday I was thinking about why I took up Photography in the first place. Not so much to take nice, or even interesting photos, although that’s certainly a factor, but more to…

Oct. 26, 6 Shots of Houses with Adox CMS 20 II
A few more from the same roll as Long Shadows in Reno, as these have long shadows as well I suppose they could have been in that post, but it seemed like these stood apart a bit from the shots in that post and maybe deserved their own post? In any case, these are just…

May 17, First Try With the Adox System
This is another batch of photos that doesn’t really fit with the lo-fi theme of this blog, nonetheless, I couldn’t resist posting them. Adox CMS 20 II is a microfilm film (is that redundant?) intended to be used with Adox Adotech developer as a system. I’ve seen a few photos taken with it that almost…
