Root and bark - a photo on Flickriver

Root and bark

2021 has been a long year, and it has been a long time since I have posted a photograph; sometimes weeks have gone by with none taken.

This one was taken in the early days of April, and was my second photograph with a Voigtlander Bessa I. I am still rather slapdash with this camera, learning its foibles, but it is a wonderful thing in the hand - solid, and with surprising heft for a folding medium-format camera. At a little more than the advertised 6x9, the negatives are things of beauty in their own right. With this first roll, the lower edge has not developed properly, a failure of agitation, I assume.

Blenheim Park, Oxon, April 2021. Voigtlander Bessa I, Rollei RPX 100, Ilford ID-11, and a few very, very minor tweaks in PhotoShop.

If you like my photographs, please consider buying a print at my website, captures.life. I haven't yet finished building the site and putting in all of the terms and conditions and policies, but the bits that involve buying a print, having it delivered, and contacting me if anything isn't working or goes wrong are functioning just fine...
