Caffenol

Some of my fellow members in the photo club are very inclined to use instant coffee when they develop film. Not to drink while developing, but actually soak the film in a mixture containing instant coffee. The negatives does not turn dark brown but seems actually alright when finished. I have my doubt that coffee is the real working component in the mixture but something else. Until proven I think coffee is just a blind and fun part of the recipe.

I'll stick with my ususal developer for a while longer.

Photo club meeting

Yesterday we had another meeting at the photo club. All digital contests on the program. I did not participate this time. Forgot to upload pictures. More interesting was the collection of pictures heading for the Trierenberg Supercircuit salon in Austria. We are seven participants from our club. I participate with four monochrome and four colour pictures. Here is a picture from our coffee break.

Exhibition

Yesterday my photo club hanged the exhibition that will start on Sunday and last for three weeks. It is called "The Red Line", meaning the subway line from Gamla stan in the centre to the farthest end Fruängen. The exhibition is held at Midsommargården at Telefonplan.

Nice result

Those who finished early discussed darkroom and printing techniques.
