Don’t know what it is but the darkest months of the year, when it makes sense to lock myself up in the darkroom, I just don’t. Ok it might be a factor that the temperature is at maximum +14°C in there… but now I’m itching to get back to it. So I’ve developed some film, as always in Caffenol, I like to use it because it’s free of chemicals(I use enough of those when doing wet plates) and also I’m pretty lazy when it comes to develop film. I put all my film in there for 70minutes for a stand development and then it’s done.
I also prepared everything to get my wet plating going and today the weather was perfect for it. So nice to get back into wet plating again! You never know what to expect with this old technique but I’m very happy with todays result. My first plate was pretty as an Ambrotype but the second one will be very nice printed in Lith. More results to come…
