As the title says, a final monochrome photographic print that was sprayed with developer and then sepia toned. See the two previous relevant posts for more details on this experimental technique and method.

MORE PAINTING WITH DEV


Another example of painting with photographic paper developer. The concept was for a design for a Musician's Album Cover. For the Image Derivation module of a 9231 City and Guilds Certificate in Photography. The young man in the above studio portrait is the same person in the post of 19th January 2013.

Basically instead of fully immersing the exposed photographic print in the developing tray. You load up a water bottle (similar to those that you can purchase for watering flowers, with a trigger release) with a small solution of photographic paper developer. Then placing the print in a clean dry tray you just liberally spray the print with the solution. Then stop and fix as per normal.

An experimental print for the above mentioned module and certificate, circa 1993.

ANOTHER ZOOMED EXPOSURE


This monochrome photographic print was taken with my 70-210mm telephoto lens fitted to the camera. The camera was held in place by the clamp from my Cullmann Touring set. After the first timed exposure, the lens was moved by a fraction (and so on) until the exposure was completed.
