Work in Progress in the darkroom 🎞️ Might have to take this frame into Photopolymer Gravure process to compare those silver nitrate shadows to oil etching ink! . . . . #35mmfilm #bwfilmphotography #darkroomprint #darkroomphotography #delta100 #ilforddelta100 on #ilfordmultigrade paper #canadianrockies #canadianrockymountains #hikealberta #canadianfilmphotographers #northernfilmcollective

Despite a few challenges (swipe to see plate cutting sadness), I’ve grown in absolute love with this print😊 Watamula is a special place, mainly because the ground is porous and the force of ocean waves pushes air in and out of all the tiny holes underground. It looks like the coastal rock is breathing and it’s fascinating to hear the sound of the ground inhaling and exhaling (swipe for a windy video clip). As a prairie-dweller, the ocean coast always feels especially striking with its liveliness. ➡️ This photopolymer gravure print ‘Watamula Exhale’ is off to Pennsylvania for the #9inhandpressprintexchange Printed at Edmonton’s wonderful printshop @snapgallery . . . . @9inhandpress #printmaking #photopolymer #photogravure #polymergravure #photopolymergravure #intaglio #intaglioprint #intaglioprintmaking #toyoboplate #gamblinetchingink #hahnemuehlepaper #yegartist #yeg #watamula #coastline #nature #landscape #blackandwhitelandscape

Mystery 35mm film for the win! 😍 So you ever switch to shoot a specific film camera for a few years, forgetting that you have a half exposed roll of film in the one you set aside? Yesterday was one of those days I went to pick up the heavy duty Canon EOS 1 that I hadn’t shot in a while, and noticed a mystery roll of film still inside of it. After last night in the darkroom, I was thrilled to see these amazing owls appear🦉 This roll was from a past visit to @albertabirdsofpreycentre which is a great organization here in Alberta. I can’t wait to print some of these in my next darkroom session! . . . . #ilford #ilfordfilm #ilfordhp5 @ilfordphoto #35mmfilm #filmisnotdead #filmphotography #blackandwhitephotography #womenwhoshootfilm #35mmnegative #monochromeguild

Results are in: Better for drinking than toning 🍷 Got my hands on dry tannins and different tea mixes for new tests. Alt process printing is fun times.

Darkroom silver gelatin photographs from the Nikonos III underwater 35mm film! Not shown: A ton of other little steps in the process 🤣 These are ‘work prints’ without split-grade, dodging or burning exposures, mainly so I can get a feel for which frames I’ll print in a more complex approach on fibre paper for final work 👍🏼 #filmphotography #analogphotography #darkroom #darkroomphotography #silvergelatin #silvergelatinprint #filmisnotdead #ilfordpaper #analogphotography #analogvibes #processvideo #ilfordphoto #grainisgood #monochromeguild #edmontonphotographer #edmontonfilmphotographers #albertafilmphotographers #canadianfilmphotographers #darkroomprint #monochromeguild #nikonos #nikonosiii #underwaterfilmphotography
