Rosedale, north Yorkshire Moors

Looks very good. I have experimented quite a lot with night photography but mainly long exposures of moving lights like ships, cars etc.

If you haven't already seen it, there are some useful reciprocity numbers published by Ilford. See this thread: https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/ilford-film-reciprocity.153342/

Looks good to me as well. What made you decide to develop normally for 6 mins and then stand for 24?

Thanks

I like that: "enjoying the solitude of night, the therapeutic qualities of sitting and thinking." Well said.

Something thing to try: In the past I have figured out the correct exposure for whatever light source will be in the photo, then wait around dusk for the ambient light to be at a level where I can place the tones I want in the scene to match that exposure. That way you don't get so much of a problem with flare and burned out highlights surrounding the light source.

Though I admit, I'm reluctant when it comes to waiting around in cold weather...

Svenedin, thanks for link the Ilford info looks interesting, so some more experimenting is in order.

Pentaxuser I stumbled across a book on night photography by Andrew Sanderson its a fantastic read and full of useful practical tips. In the book he suggested the use of dilute developer/static processing to reduce negative contrast. First impressions are that it works really well. I have other negs shot around the same time and developed the same so will post as well.

Thanks

John

Thanks. I haven't seen the Andrew Sanderson book. Sounds like a useful source

The Sanderson book is a good one. You might want to take a look at Henry Wessel's Night Walk.

I'd be out there too at night if there were houses like that around me! Nice photo.

Very well done, I like it

Terrific shot
