Quoting!

mkdir “geh oida”

macht was anderes als

mkdir geh oida

(Fast) immer alle Variablen quoten in shell scripts.

This is an excellent picture.

I like it so much that it now resides in my wallpapers directory. Hope you don’t mind :-)

Oder wir lassen den Scheiss einfach bleiben?

So wegen dem Planeten waers.

Because of Windows.

You hold the film on the edges and let it slip through while winding it on the reel. There’s a bunch of videos that show the process. It’s pretty straight forward.

As with everything: pratice first until you can literally do it blindly.

I don’t wear any gloves. I start with clean hands and whatever tiny fingerprint-fragment might get onto anything, will be dissolved multiple times by the chemicals anyway :-)

Plastic reels just have a tendency to jam. In the end it’s basic physics. You push a thin and flexible material down into a spiral. At some point the resistance will win.

If you keep your plastic reels clean and dry(!) and use films with a decently thick base, it usually still works fine though. Once you use a a film with a more flimsy base, this will turn into a problem.

The make of the film material is basically zero problem with metal reels though, because you wind the film onto them. No pushing of flexible material involved. Metal reels also just work fine if you get sweaty hands inside your changing bag because it’s summer and everything is hot.

I mostly use metal reels nowadays. Because the handling is absolutely predicatable and they’re also easier to clean and dry. Sometimes i still use the plastic reels, because i have them, but only with films like Ilford. Because they are thick enough to not jam up everything.

Der andere Linke hat ein Komma falsch gesetzt! Das ist unvereinbar mit meinen Idealen darum bin ich gegen ihn!

Fun fact: Kodak had some issues with gelatine that contained too much sulfur back in the 1920s, which ruined a lot of the material they were producing. Happened because the cows have eaten a different type of grass.

This led to Kodak becoming a large cattle farming company too, so they had control over that part.

Side effect of this was the development of faster film.

Film science is completely bonkers.

Thanks for the info :-)

That coarse structure makes it look like an ancient photograph you found in a damp basement, which contrasts nicely with the scene from present day.

First of all: i really like the look of that picture.

But out of curiosity: went there something wrong during development or was this done on purpose?

Helmet lamps are the perfect way to constantly blind yourself in foggy conditions. Or rain, or snow.

That wallpaper is something. Wow.

Potentiell ein Turmfalke :-)

Because i just checked: seems to be a male (red cheek)

I’ve seen a bunch of them around here and i’d say your identification seems correct.

hint: the “Merlin” app from Cornell Labs is pretty good for checking things like that. Or https://observation.org/ if you at home and have the pics on your computer.

Some people need to be competitive in everything apparently.

I watch birds to relax and keep my brain from thinking too much. That movie was a lot if fun though.
