baton rouge

It just so happens I ordered some color print filters off of eBay for making pinhole color paper negatives -- when the bulb in my dichroic enlarger blew. I ordered a new one, but it's taking its time getting here. So, I decided to pull out my Omega B600 enlarger and try color printing with filter packs. It's not as hard or as tedious as I thought.

This was a four second exposure (sky, plus two seconds) at f11 using filters 40M+40Y+10Y+5Y. For this film, this corresponds almost exactly to other prints I've made using the Omega C760 with dichroic filtration. This is surprising only because some of the filters, I see, are dated from the 60s!
