This image is a lith print photograph depicting a rustic rural scene. At the center, there's an old, weathered outbuilding with a corrugated metal roof, some parts of which are patched with lighter panels. A wooden ladder leans against the building, and a neatly stacked pile of firewood sits along its side. Surrounding the structure is an overgrown yard with dry grass and bare shrubs, suggesting early spring.

In the background, several houses with pitched roofs are visible, partially obscured by leafless trees. A forested hillside fades into the mist in the distance, creating a soft, atmospheric effect.

The lith printing technique gives the image its characteristic high contrast, grainy texture, and warm, slightly sepia-toned hues. The shadows are deep and rich, while the highlights are soft and creamy, contributing to the timeless, nostalgic feel of the scene. The broad border around the image also enhances the vintage aesthetic typical of traditional darkroom prints.

This is a lith print photograph depicting an old, weathered wall with a single window. The window has two upper panes and two lower ones, each covered with lace or floral-patterned curtains, partially obscuring the view inside. The wall itself is in a state of decay—plaster has crumbled away in several places, revealing the underlying brickwork. The surface is richly textured, with cracks, stains, and peeling layers contributing to a sense of age and abandonment.

To the right of the window, a simple line drawing of a face is visible, possibly graffiti. The expression appears stern or angry, adding a subtle narrative element to the scene.

The lith printing process is evident in the high-contrast tones, grainy texture, and warm, sepia-like coloration. Shadows are deep and rich, while highlights are soft and creamy, enhancing the tactile, almost painterly quality of the image. The border suggests it is a traditional darkroom print on old expired paper.

This image is a lith print photograph, characterized by its distinctive gritty texture, high contrast, and warm, often sepia-toned hues.

The scene captures a solitary figure—likely a young woman—ascending a wide, outdoor staircase. She is dressed in dark clothing, wearing a coat, a baseball cap, and a backpack. The staircase and the adjacent wall create strong diagonal lines that guide the viewer's eye through the composition. On the wall, the letter "F" is boldly spray-painted in a stylized, graffiti-like font.

Soft, dappled light filters across the scene, likely from trees casting shadows, adding a dreamlike or abstract quality. The use of lith printing enhances the mood: the shadows are deep and textured, while the highlights retain a delicate softness. The borders of the image are slightly darker and warm-toned, typical of prints on aged or fiber-based paper.

This is a black-and-white photograph taken from behind of a woman walking along a tree-lined path. She wears a large, floppy sunhat tied with a ribbon at the back and a sleeveless, patterned sundress with thin straps. A light-colored shoulder bag strap crosses her back. The background is softly blurred (bokeh), creating a sense of depth and focusing attention on her silhouette and the dappled sunlight filtering through the trees.

The image shows a warmly lit interior scene, likely captured in the late afternoon based on the long shadows and golden hue of the light. At the center of the image is a napkin holder containing red paper napkins. The napkin holder itself has a smooth, organic shape and appears to be made of ceramic or plastic in a soft peach tone.

A shadow with partially readable letters (possibly spelling part of a brand or word) falls across the napkin holder and the table surface. In the background, there is a couch or bench with cushions draped in fabric that is tinted orange by the sunlight, casting dramatic and artistic shadows that contribute to the image's visual interest.

The image is a black-and-white photograph of a single rose bud. The flower is centered against a deep black background, which creates a striking contrast and isolates the subject, giving it a dramatic and elegant appearance. The texture of the petals is clearly visible, with delicate highlights and shadows that emphasize their softness and natural form. The lighting appears to come from above or slightly to the side, enhancing the three-dimensional quality of the rose. There are also some fine specks or dust particles visible, which could suggest that the photograph was scanned from a darkroom print

The image is a black and white photograph that captures a tranquil scene by the edge of a body of water. In the upper portion, we see a grassy and slightly muddy shoreline with a few tree trunks. The lower and central parts of the image feature water reflecting the trees and sky above. The reflection is distorted by ripples in the water, creating an abstract, wavy pattern that gives the image a dynamic and somewhat surreal quality. The photo appears to be taken on film and scaned of a darkroom print, as evidenced by the black border and visible edge markings at the top and bottom.

This image is a lith print, a photographic printing process known for its gritty texture, high contrast, and warm or cold tones depending on paper and developer choice. The scene depicts an old rural house, likely in Western Ukraine with weathered white walls and a steep, dark roof.

To the right, a barn with a corrugated metal roof leans at an angle, partially covered by bare tree branches, suggesting it’s late autumn or early spring. A wooden ladder rests against the roof, adding to the rustic atmosphere. The foreground is overgrown with dry grass and weeds, while the background reveals rooftops and distant trees under a pale, cloudy sky.

The lith printing process enhances the mood of decay and nostalgia: shadows are deep and gritty, highlights are soft and creamy, and the entire image has a distinctive vintage look with some edge fogging and chemical staining typical of old or hand-processed prints.

This is a black and white photograph featuring a single bird perched on one of three parallel power lines. The bird is centered in the image, drawing the viewer’s attention. The composition is minimalist, with a clear sky forming the background and a fine grain texture likely due to the use of film. The scene conveys a sense of solitude and calm.

The image shows a black-and-white photograph of an old, abandoned building partially covered in snow. The structure appears to be in a state of decay: the wall is damaged and patched with a lattice of bricks, and the plaster is peeling off. Leafless vines have overtaken the building, hanging down over the roof, window, and walls, adding to the sense of abandonment. The window, which is central in the frame, has broken and reveals a glimpse of a curtain inside, suggesting it was once inhabited. Snow covers parts of the roof, vines, and the ground in front of the building, indicating it is winter. The overall mood is quiet, melancholic, and nostalgic

The image is a black and white photograph taken in the Carpathian Mountains. It features a single alpine flower—likely an anemone—standing out sharply in the foreground, surrounded by grass and mountain vegetation. The background shows a soft, blurred view of mountain ridges and cloudy sky, creating a strong contrast between the crisp flower and the dreamy landscape behind it.

The photo has a distinctly grainy texture, characteristic of high-speed film, suggesting it was shot on a high ISO black-and-white film stock. The grain enhances the raw, atmospheric quality of the mountain scene, giving the image a timeless, almost documentary feel

The black-and-white image shows a clear glass of water placed on a crumpled piece of paper. The surface is smooth and flat, and the background is a textured wall. Light passing through the glass creates intricate reflections and refractions on the wall, forming abstract shapes and patterns. The lighting suggests natural sunlight coming from the right side, casting shadows and creating a striking contrast that adds a sense of depth and calmness to the composition.

This is a black and white photograph of a quiet, wooded area. In the center of the image, there is a small wooden structure with a pitched roof, possibly a gazebo or a shelter. The scene is dominated by tall, slender birch trees with white bark, some of which are in the foreground and partially obscure the structure. There is a large tree stump near the center-right of the image, casting a long shadow across the ground. The overall atmosphere feels calm and slightly nostalgic, likely due to the monochrome tone and the natural, somewhat rustic setting.

The image was printed using the lith print technique,  a photographic printing technique known for its distinctive high-contrast and grainy aesthetic, often with warm or sepia tones and dramatic shadow detail.

The image depicts a quiet, serene lakeside scene. In the foreground, a small rowboat is moored at the edge of the water, slightly tilted and partially reflected in the rippling surface. The shoreline is grassy and uneven, leading into a wooded area with tall, leafless or sparsely leafed trees, suggesting early spring. The dense forest in the background creates a dark, textured contrast to the lighter foreground. The overall mood is calm, nostalgic, and somewhat melancholic, enhanced by the lith printing process which gives the photograph a vintage, artistic look with rich blacks, soft highlights, and a warm tonal range.

Finally, I developed the film from the #FolderWeek 14.04 - 20.04
.
I developed it in Foma Retro Special according to the Foma datasheet. I got overexposed and very overdeveloped negatives. The flatbed scanner can't scan them properly, so I had to print them using contrast grade 0 or 1

This black and white photograph depicts a serene natural landscape featuring a calm body of water, likely a lake or a pond, surrounded by leafless trees, suggesting it was taken in early spring or late autumn. The trees, mostly birches, are reflected in the still water, adding a sense of symmetry and tranquility. A prominent birch tree leans diagonally toward the water in the foreground, while other trees line the right-hand side, creating a natural path along the shoreline. The absence of leaves and the soft light give the image a quiet, contemplative mood.

Es gibt den #Kentmere Film jetzt auch als 200er. Spannend im Sommer, da muss ich mit dem 400er zu oft abblenden. Werde ich mir mal ein paar Rollen kommen lassen. Gibt es als 35mm oder als 120er Mittelformat.

The image shows an old, dilapidated house with a heavily weathered wooden door and a damaged exterior wall. The structure appears to be made of a mix of wood, stone, and plaster, some of which is crumbling and missing. The roof is metal, uneven, and has two brick chimneys protruding from it. Vines and dry vegetation are growing up the walls and around the entrance, adding to the abandoned feel of the scene. In front of the door, there is an old bathtub lying on its side, along with other scattered debris. The overall atmosphere suggests neglect and decay.

Мандруєм старою забудовою Львова. Безмежно люблю ці двори-колодязі. Нажаль багато з них зараз умовно доступні через наявність замків на брамах. Але іноді може пощастити 😀

на фото внутрішній двір-колодязь, сфотографований на чорно-білу плівку. Це типовий двір старої частини Львова.
Фотографія зроблена з нижньої точки, дивлячись вгору, що створює цікаву перспективу. Видно стіни будівель з обох сторін, що формують вузький простір. Стіни виглядають досить старими, з пошкодженою штукатуркою та слідами часу.
У верхній частині двору видно скляні елементи - схоже на засклені галереї чи балкони, типові для львівської архітектури. По сторонах видно кілька невеликих вікон. Через відкритий простір вгорі проникає світло, яке створює контраст із темними стінами.
Такі двори-колодязі характерні для історичної забудови Львова, особливо в центральній частині міста, де будинки щільно примикають один до одного, утворюючи закриті внутрішні простори з обмеженим доступом світла.

Давно не було Львівських артефактів 😀
Такі старі рукомийники ще досі можна зустріти в старих будинках. Багато з них звичайно зникли. Але, наприклад, в кав'ярнях і барах часто їх лишають як арт об'єкт або вписують в дизайн інтер'єру

Це чорно-біла фотографія, зроблена в старій частині Львова. На знімку зображено ретро рукомийник, вмонтований у муровану стіну. Він має характерну округлу металеву чашу з краном, що додає зображенню шарму і атмосфери минулих епох. На рукомийнику стоїть горщик з декоративною рослиною. Поряд видніється частина старого дерев'яного стільця — усе це підсилює відчуття камерності та затишку.

Світло падає під кутом, створюючи глибокі тіні та сильний контраст, що надає фото драматизму й підкреслює фактуру предметів — від металу до дерева й каменю. Цей тип сцени дуже характерний для історичних районів Львова, де вулички вузькі, а світло проривається через щілини між старими будівлями.

This image is a darkroom print created using the lith print technique, which results in high-contrast tones, gritty textures, and a unique color shift often toward warm brown or peach hues. The photograph itself was taken using the Intentional Camera Movement (ICM) method, which involves deliberately moving the camera during a long exposure. This creates a sense of motion and abstraction.

In the image, several tall trees dominate the composition, appearing distorted and ghostly due to the motion blur. The vertical streaks emphasize the movement, creating a painterly, dreamlike atmosphere. The background is filled with more trees and foliage, but the details are obscured by the blur. The ground shows a similar directional blur, enhancing the dynamic, almost surreal quality of the scene.
