I took a walk down the Schuylkill River Trail on a blustery spring afternoon. I got some dystopian vibes.

These were all shot on my Nikon fm2 using Ilford Delta 3200. I printed them on expired Agfa Brovira BEH in Moersch easy lith.

Much wiser since my goodbye

Was fortunate enough to get ahold of some Soviet era Slavich Bromportrait from 1983. The paper is wonderful for lith printing though exposure times can get up there. Some of these needed exposures of 6 minutes! With shorter development times, the paper has a nice brown tone. Longer developments get the classic yellow lith.

I paired the paper with some negatives shot on Svema MZ3 for consistency. Unfortunately with the paper and the negative being so contrasty, it didn’t always work. Going to try next with some HP5 negatives.
