New scan of an old print. This is another in the "House and Tree" series from my darkroom days in the 80's, maybe early 90's. No Photoshop except to scan the old print. The house and tree are from one original source negative, and the clouds and sky from another. The house and tree were enlarged onto 8x10 Kodalith high-contrast sheet film which served as a mask for creating this montage in the darkroom.

The house and tree are from one original source negative, and the bird (one of my pet doves at the time) is from a much earlier negative. They were combined onto 8x10 Kodalith high-contrast sheet film for this montage.

No Photoshop -- Another scan of an old 8x10 print from about 20 years ago. From an original black & white negative, an 8x10 transparency on ultra-high-contrast Kodalith sheet film was created. This was then contact printed onto 8x10 paper.
The "snow" is actually black pepper, shaken onto the film during the contact exposure. (For stars I sometimes used salt).

This is the original crappy "drug-store" print of a shot from the Eighties that I would later get some good mileage out of in the darkroom -- including the one posted below, which I actually sold for Christmas cards!

New scan of an old print. This is another in the "House and Tree" series from my darkroom days in the 80's, maybe early 90's. No Photoshop except to scan the old print. The house and tree, from the original source negative, were enlarged onto Kodalith high-contrast sheet film. While subsequently contact printing onto paper, table salt was sprinkled over the film to act as stars. Not entirely successful, as about half of them seem to be hollow stars, the salt crystals letting light through their middles...
