Redscaling film is one of the easiest tricks in photography and one of the first ones I tried/wrote about. But it's been a minute, so I re-wrote it completely:

The Redscale Film Guide
https://www.analog.cafe/r/the-redscale-film-guide-jdmc

The guide explains what redscale film is, how to do it at home/with which films, and why it works. It also explains how to get colours other than red.

:Іноді здається, що міста мають очі. І не тільки в камерах спостереження, а й у маскаронах, що визирають з фасадів. Вони нічого не говорять, лише мовчки спостерігають. Може, щось знають про нас таке, чого ми самі ще не усвідомили.
А якщо відійти від пустої філософії, то в мене майже закінчуються фото з тестових плівок. А довідзнімати нові нема коли - сесія наближається. Скоро вже нічого буде постити. Треба все ж таки буде наробити собі плівок кадрів на 12, може швидше трошки справа піде.

A black and white film photo of a brick building in Saint Paul with sculpted faces—mascarons—mounted above each window. The figures appear to gaze outward solemnly. The grainy texture of the film adds a moody, timeless atmosphere. Reflections of neighboring architecture are visible in the glass.

Side grip and focus ring with markings are now assembled, so I'd consider this one finished! I ordered some film and developer, so hopefully I'll have some test shots at the end of the week!

"A black and white photograph capturing a narrow alleyway nestled between two towering residential buildings. The buildings are multi-storied, featuring numerous balconies and windows that line each floor. The alley is cast in shadow, creating a stark contrast with the light hitting the building facades. In the background, a tree is visible, adding a touch of nature to the urban setting. The perspective of the photo emphasizes the height of the buildings and the narrowness of the alley."

**Chinese Alt Text:**
"一张黑白照片，捕捉了两栋高层住宅楼之间的狭窄小巷。这些建筑有多层楼，每层都有许多阳台和窗户。小巷被阴影笼罩，与照射在建筑正面的光线形成鲜明对比。背景中可见一棵树，为城市环境增添了一丝自然气息。照片的构图突出了建筑的高度和小巷的狭窄。"

Another portrait. Two Arri tungsten lights, one at 90° with a softbox and one at 45° without, but aiming at the hair. No gels this time. There was also a reflector but I forgot to move it for this pose so it's kind of irrelevant.

Antique store snapshot

UA

: Вперше в житті я потрапила в антикварні магазини вже в Америці. Чомусь молодша дитина їх дуже полюбляла. Він взагалі ще той thrifter. Але потім і я почала час від часу заходити, є в них щось заворожуюче.
Мене завжди дивують дві речі.
Перше , що, знаходячись за приблизно 8,000 км від Харкова, я бачу там речі, знайомі з дитинства. Ось в’язана серветка майже з таким візерунком, як любила вʼязати моя бабуся. Ось комод, дуже схожий на той, що стояв у неї в хаті. А ось тарілки, не ідентичні, але дуже близькі.
А друге, це побачити там предмети, які я ще вважаю сучасними. Але вони вже потихеньку перекочовують у розряд антикваріату. І це дуже дивне відчуття.
