I have an ongoing fascination with America, its back roads and the icon of the road trip.
“Outside it’s America” is the title for prints made over the years of my own experience.

The game changer for me in the darkroom happened 20 or 30 years ago when I discovered the awesome Beard enlarging easels .

The most versatile and creative camera I own - the Pentax 17 - all day at our Son’s wedding for close ups, creative diptychs and panos then in the evening slow shutter flash images on the dance floor.

We spent a wonderful day wandering around the Imperial Palace in Hie back in February - really enjoying revealing those memories some months later in the colour darkroom.

When I sent a set of images photographed at Calke Abbey to a friend on Instagram who loved this National Trust property I knew, they would have a greater “visual currency” to her than if she’d just swiped through them on social media.

A couple of constructed triptych images from the last Mersey Meet up I went on with @stigofthedump.bsky.social and others - The “Homeless Jesus” lies on a bench in the grounds of St Nicholas Parish Church.

Lots of colour negs from the last year from the Pentax 17 - can be daunting but I’ll follow the same #slowphotography procedure that I use for mono. Make contact sheets, mark up candidates for printing etc - no hurry, this isn’t meant to be a chore ….

Been making a few more cemetery lith prints - these are from LCA 120 negs.
After toning and a brief wash they get dunked in a home made hypo clear wash aid solution of sodium sulphate then into the archival vertical washer for 30mins.

I’d stood in this spot for several mornings in a row before I saw the carved face in the tree.
The next day I had better light and the Pentax 17 was loaded with some HP5 - I continue my #HalfFrameStories

Haven’t used any FB paper for a while. I’d forgotten how much it slows you down and forces you to be more contemplative and, well patient.
First step is to make some test strips from one or two negs and leave them to dry (sometimes use a microwave but in no hurry)

All colour also so winter RA4 fest ahead.
