A Trip to the Museum

Who doesn't enjoy a visit to the museum? In this case the Yorkshire Air Museum in North Yorkshire. The great thing about this place is that when you pay for a visit the ticket lasts for the whole season so i make quite a few visits throughout the year. Apologies for some of the scenes that i have posted before, however these are new to the Holga

Absolutely excellent. Holga (and pinhole) always make be think of the way you visualise things in your mind's memory eye. I think that's why they strike a certain chord.

Thanks Toby, yes you're right. It's previsuslising the image that makes me think that this could work...
 
Very nice set. There are 2 that stand out to me from which are the Petrol pumps and the Tractor.
Thanks Ian, and to think I didn't think I had a cat in hell's chance of recovering the shadows in either shot when I took them. It was so dark in the shed, there was a coffee vendor and I was in the queue and thought "Why Not"

This is what intrigued me. Knowing my Holga which is roughly 1/60th when it was measured, and at f/8 at the best with a slow film, its done very well

I don't know if this is a virtue of Delta 100 and DDX developer
 
I watched a video on test was Ilford HP5+ one stop under there was little difference to the correct exposure, 2 stops and again very good, 3 stops under and things start to go a little flat

One stop over, no difference to correct in fact it went to 6 stops over and still very usable, 7 stops and it states to fall apart, negative film is so forgiving to over exposure and less so to underexposure, scanning when under exposed
you can get away with, darkroom it’s not that forgiving

Yes I think I have seen the same video I was impressed with the overexposure results. It's interesting to think what would have happened with the technical development of film stocks had digital not been invented Would we have incredible high ISO film's to play with?
