I had my slides all mounted and ready to ship a week ago.\u00a0 They had been titled, scanned, and fit into (seamed) sleeves.\u00a0 The problem was, they wouldn’t fit into the Dragon Folio box.\u00a0 It was then I noticed that every other slide in the box was mounted in cardboard. Mine were in plastic mounts.\u00a0 Instead of remounting my original four, I decided to save them for the next loop of Folio A.\u00a0 I mounted four new selections, all in cardboard mounts;<\/p>\n

“Same As Surly Curs” –\u00a0<\/strong>the title is a crossword puzzle type of clue (the answer is “growlers”).\u00a0 This was shot\u00a0 during what is possibly the least-known photography celebration; “World Toy Camera Day”, observed on the third Saturday of October.\u00a0 I employed a Holga 120 CF stereo camera with add-on wide angle lens attachments (which add vignetting) and a roll of Provia 400 to shoot a few photos on my deck to honour the occasion.\u00a0 Developed in a Jobo processor in my basement using Tetenal Colortec E6 chemicals.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“DISC-guises” –\u00a0<\/strong>this image is one I originally considered a focal point failure, but I revisited it, mounted the chips and decided to submit it anyways.\u00a0 It was shot with a TL-120-1 on APX 100\u00a0 film, and sent to dr5 for Dev1 processing.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“How To Winterize Your Vehicle” –\u00a0<\/strong>I’m fairly certain that this was captured on one of a handful of trips to\u00a0Mclean’s Auto Wreckers in Rockwood.\u00a0 When I feel the urge to go explore this vast car graveyard, I call ahead, then I bake something with beer for the Mclean’s proprietors to gain my admission – chocolate stout cake, raspberry beer blaster cookies….you get the idea.\u00a0 It’s either bake them something beforehand or share your photos with them afterwards, and sharing photos is just too much damned work!\u00a0 Shot with a TL-120-1 on Fuji NHP 400 negative film, then cross-processed in Argentix (Arista) E6 chemicals using a Jobo processor in my basement.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

“The Jazz Standard” –\u00a0<\/strong>this title is also a crossword puzzle type of clue (the answer is “Autumn Leaves”).\u00a0 This is a pinhole image, and I captured this just prior to Hallowe’en 2018, using one of Todd Schlemmer’s terraPIN Oskar^2 stereo pinhole cameras on a GorillaPod.\u00a0 \u00a0I seem to recall that the exposure was somewhere around the 1 min. 32 sec mark.\u00a0 Todd’s cameras are 3D printed using environmentally-responsible materials.\u00a0 This roll of Fuji RVP was developed in a Jobo processor in my basement using Tetenal Colortec E6 chemicals.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
