Sunshine in a Bottle

Here, I'll tell you a secret,

There is no sunshine in a bottle, 

but 

the dim rooms of winter can often allow you 

to bend the rules a bit. 

Those dawns are hard to forget, too,

the sun streaking in, 

last nights cigarette still clinging to your throat and lungs,

starting the day with a cough that ends in a retch.

I wish I had a better tale for Christmas, 

but here it is. 

Look elsewhere.

Cross-Processing with Fuji RHP 64T

Here are my first experiments in cross processing E-6 film in C-41 process. I used Rollei/Compard Digibase Chemicals for this development, and developed at standard times and temperatures. I enjoyed the effects, though, some of these shots have me completely baffled as to how they turned out sharp when the rest are grainy.  Cross-processing is for me. Next, for bleach bypass, another weird process that leaves the silver on the color negative.  I can't wait. I believe I shot this film at 100 or 200EI, seems a bit under-exposed.
