it is quite easy to find
old photographs in
flea markets - but what about
old negatives?
I had been looking for some in
Valtteri and found only a few:
three large black and white negatives probably from the
50's/60's.
darkroom prints:
✻ my favourite - the photographer must have nailed the exposition: it was quite easy to print.
✻ the negative was quite overexposed - but I really like the subject. could that building be Turun linna?
✻ the hardest to print: it was clearly shot towards the sun and the figures turned out very dark.
I wonder if these three photographs were all shot with the same camera: according to the focus it must have been an
agfa with a fixed lens - like my
clack.
printing old negatives is so very interesting: I am going to look for more. maybe my friends could send me a few - if they have some: it would be such a wonderful gift!
