I got paparazzi'd by my friend while being awestruck just after totality Go on holiday with your photographer friends, you'll get a sick album to show off afterwards Thanks @cyan.pictures for getting this when I didn't even notice

Warning: as soon as this user gets their film developed and photo edits done, they will become an insufferable eclipse poster Went on a roadtrip with fellow camera nerds to a small Spanish village. Life changing. I don't and won't have the words to describe the feeling of totality. #photography

My friend's camera pointed at the sun waiting for the eclipse.

The rear screen is missing and is replaced with a sticker that says "shut the fuck up"

The totality of the eclipse shot on my camera handheld before I put it down to experience the moment.

A prominence on the sun is visible as a pink spot on the left

The last moment before totality, taken with shaky hands so a ghostly ring of fire is on show due to motion blur

The midsummer night is one of my favourite nights of the year Technically it's tomorrow but that's a Sunday night and I have work on Monday

All this being said, the Aviphot 80 derivatives are my favourite films, when exposed correctly they're fantastic. They also make excellent positives.

I'm on my stag do and I've never felt like a group of people have put up with my shit (an incessant amount of cameras) more than right now Tell your friends they're important because if they put up with you dragging in EIGHT cameras to a weekend event they can be nothing but friends ❤️❤️ #photography

I put a 720nm filter on my phone camera today. #photography #infrared #blackandwhite

A black and white view of a river and a bridge. The image is taken in infrared, so the leaves of the trees show the Wood Effect and appear bone white due to reflected infrared.

I buried the lede here, of course it's photos! I'd be a pretty poor excuse for a chemist if it wasn't. Kentmere 100 in Perceptol 1+3 for 35 minutes, constant rotary agitation.

Some lovely thick negatives on a roll of Kentmere 100

Chris Barne 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿@christotheb· Apr 12

Place your bets folks, is it pictures? Using perceptol 1+3 because I don't have a lot and I have 6 rolls of film to dev.

Two rolls of film fresh out of the washing stage still on the reels

Calls Landing, Leeds Louis Le Prince shot some of the world's first moving images in this area of Leeds in 1888. This was shot on the 5th of January just before I started at my new job! #photography #leeds

One from back when I was doing a short study into topographies in February #photography #blackandwhite Lewis Baltz used 35mm microfilm for his works which I tried to emulate here in the editing style.

Sunny weather means infrared time! I still think I'm trying to find my groove with aerochrome photography. #aerochrome #infrared #photography I am in the market for a full frame Sony mirrorless to IR convert if anyone UK based has one they are wanting to sell

I'm so burned out on the human version of this scan that I just ignore the emotional plea in username accounts now. I guess it's part of my digital immune system alongside recognising phishing.

Thrilled to hear it's now automated, that's just peachy. 🙃

I think this isn't fair unless it's on a calibrated display. A lot of the time I wasn't seeing the colour difference but the luminance difference because I could only see the line at the edge of my vision Either that or big ups the screen on the Pixel 7a. www.keithcirkel.co.uk/whats-my-jnd...

Okay, either you're a mantis shrimp in a trenchcoat or your display has a secret wide-gamut mode nobody told me about. Suspiciously impressive.

Lately I've been emulating different photographer's work for a little inspiration. This evening was taking some photos in the style of @rainhayes.bsky.social (my work is not a patch on the real thing) I saw a broken-stemmed crocus in the garden so brought it in to take photos #UV #photography

Today's photo walk was with the aim of trying out some New Topographics style photography. I'm happy enough with these and I'll try again some more tomorrow. Got to make use of the unending cloudy weather somehow! #photography #urban #blackandwhite

@mariegardiner.bsky.social I just found my little fish message from when I bought your zine and now it lives with my darkroom prints

A piece of paper shaped like a fish inside a polypocket with black and white darkroom printed photos.

Message reads:
Thank you for supporting
