Worcester and Birmingham canal

Worcester and Birmingham canal, originally uploaded by Christopher Preece.

I don’t do much black and white film photography these days, however I have found a way to re-create my favourite look on digital using Photoshop.

This looks like Ilford FP4 with a red filter, developed in Paterson Aculux and printed on Ilford Multifibre paper at grade 4.

I guess this is all academic now that most of these materials are no longer available (I have shot some FP4 lately but haven’y located any Aculux yet!)

Thanks to Hilary and Helen for hanging around under the bridges of the Worcester and Birmingham canal last Sunday, they were very patient as usual.
