Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 06/01/2026Could I ask what tripod that is? From the angle it looks light but still stable. 100
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 06/01/2026It comes with a plastic frame that you stick in like a film holder to compose and focus. After that's all set, you switch backs and expose it. 010
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 20/08/2025Back in the tintype lab after a break. First time using an elderly copper lens. All the veiling is from sloppiness and not a strained metaphor. #tintype #alternativephotography 130
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 05/04/2025Tons of mistakes while I'm learning tintypes and this is incredibly fun. An extra flick of the wrist when you pour the developer or dropping the plate in the silver bath a little slower than before will completely transform the result. Like learning to drive stick on a go-kart. #largeformat 030
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Took it home and put it on a light table. Reversed it in LR mobile. Gonna try to print it. Would really like to find out what year that car is so I can figure out what this was take on and ~when. 030
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 01/12/2024Was going through some boxes in my parents' basement and saw that an old frame was, in fact, an oddly-sized contact frame whose black background is instead an ancient LF negative. My dad said he found it in the basement of the IN house that they lived in in the 80s, and just held onto it. (1/2) 150
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 14/11/2024Man. Rahm's so obsolete that a decade ago he couldn't even get help a guy named Daley get enough votes to hit the runoffs of a Chicago mayoral election. 010
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 02/11/2024Excellent. The alignment looks purposeful - like how there used to be a minuscule shift on label cuts or colors when they would go down an assembly line that had been running a while. 010
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 02/11/2024What type of vinyl cutter did you use? That looks really clean! 110
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 20/05/2024I once thought rabbits were the most stressed-seeming creatures out there but: no. Cicadas. 130
Steve @flusteredlibrarian.bsky.social · 25/03/2024Would you recommend the Intrepid for a beginner? I've been wanting to get into 4x5 and keep coming back to that one as a possibility. (assuming that one on the left is an Intrepid?) 100
