HP5 has been my go-to for a while. I have a friend who recently shot a roll of Dracula 64, an infrared sensitive film, and I'm excited to see how that turns out.
What were your shot parameters (coffee in/out) if you recall? I wonder if some of the lemon acidity could be reduced by increasing extraction with higher temp or finer grind? That said, I'm with you on Blue Bottle. I'm in NYC and their coffee seems underwhelming and overpriced even by local standards.
Interesting. I support their right to make that decision and I'm glad that's an option in the Fediverse. I'm not sure I'd want to see that change happening if I were a member of their instance (I haven't spent enough time there to have an informed opinion about the alleged problems they cite in the post), but I suppose the strength of federation is that users can choose to move to another instance without necessarily losing access to Beehaw's content. I wonder how this will play out among their userbase?
Thanks a lot! Yeah, I developed the film and made the print myself. I really enjoy doing the whole process start to finish because I find it very meditative, and it allows for a lot of creative freedom.
That's super cool. It looks like the OP got some decent results with Ektachrome, if a bit washed out. I wonder how much the saturation loss was due to the film being expired vs. the processing. I've never tried this but look forward to seeing how yours turn out!
I did a quick search on kbin and the Lemmy community browser and didn't see any dedicated photo critique spaces... yet! Of course you're welcome to post anything analog in /m/darkroom for feedback.
If you feel like you're up for committing a bit of time to moderating and growing a new space, creating a magazine is really easy—just mouse over the plus sign in the upper right, and click "Create New Magazine". You'll fill out a few details and you're all set. After creating mine, I filled out the sidebar with some basic info and created a sticky welcome thread so that the main page isn't blank until you get a few users. Then I posted in some related magazines on kbin and elsewhere trying to spread the word without being too obnoxious. I also made posts in /r/darkroom and /r/analog on Reddit. The good news is that my advertisements here were well received—it seems like everyone else is just as excited to see a new magazine getting started. Take a look at my profile if you need some examples, and feel free to post here if you decide to go this route and need some more help.
Check out our new darkroom community if you're into darkroom processing or analog/film photography. I'm trying to get it off the ground, so crossposting any of your analog content there would be greatly appreciated!
