Re: View of Leeds

Here's my version tweaked with my uncalibrated eye on my uncalibrated monitor - just a bit less cyan and it brings out the sky naturally too. http://www.yatecourtbarn.adsl24.co.uk/images/4854922708_a168de46ab_b%20copy.jpg The shot has quite a nice balance to it, with the building in the upper left a...

I'm pretty sure you're missing a big dial with a red zone and the word 'DANGER' there, Tim.

That's a really nice camera for £800 - shame I still can't afford it!

Re: Now Have CPA!!! (WTB: Jobo CPE2 or similar in any condit

I have a magnet on the base of a 15xx tank - but at the moment I need the tank need for 120 roll processing because I don't have a 120 reel for the 25xx tank. And I'd prefer to ditch the 15xx tank because I don't have the roller extensions anyway ... Confused? You soon will be! So if you have a 25xx...

Re: So, how would you focus this?

So here's one of the e6s. I'm actually quite pleased with this one. I think the problem with the blue e6s was due to cross-contamination of the chemicals. Even though I thoroughly wash everything in between, I won't be using the same measuring vessel for all of the chemicals from now on. I think I'm...

Re: So, how would you focus this?

I just thought I'd mention it's not a hedge .... it's actually a bank - the far bank of a deepish gully running water across the woodland. I've been back this evening and had a go with minimal front tilt and a higher pov, so I'll post the result(s) once I've sorted developing and scanning out. I hav...

I've added an image for the background that roughly represents this example shot.. http://www.timparkin.co.uk/static/focus/index.html I look much slimmer in your calculator Tim - thank you very much! I couldn't get the calculator to work though - Firefox on XP. The sliders wouldn't move or update t...
