My first attempt at reversal processing, using a high contrast caffenol. My second attempt at reversal using the same developer from the first attempt. The entire process, including developing, bleaching, and re-exposing to light, took 2.5 hours. 120mm film developed with rosemary. I still don’t know what exactly caused the streaky, ghostlike effect. Film from that same ghostly rosemary roll. I mistakenly cut off the corner of this photo in the darkroom; the markings from the clips I used to dry the film are evident in the right bottom corner. 10 minute exposure on 120mm film, using a pinhole camera. Three people spinning in an art gallery. Shot indoors at night using a pinhole, with an exposure time of 4 minutes. They were very dizzy. 35mm, third attempt at reversal processing with caffenol. One of my first handmade darkroom prints on expired photo paper, fixed with seawater for 72 hours. I weighed the print down in the fixing tray with a few pebbles, so the fixer didn’t reach all areas of the print. The resulting light streaks are where the print changed color after I exposed it to light three days later.
