Kellenspitze (2025)

(latest 8x6" Kallitype print from last night)

This mountain is the tallest peak in the Tannheimer Alps, here seen from a narrow ridge path in the north east. It was a fabulous warm day with so many mountain flowers in full bloom and clouds forming/drifting between the passes and nearby peaks, later developing into a heavy thunderstorm (thankfully only when I was already descending again...)

@toxi I'm looking forward to find the time + setting to experiment with digital negatives. Did some things with alternative processes in traditional darkroom, long time ago...

@pyrenaicus I think quite a few your pictures would be very suitable for this kind of process and the mood it creates/adds! If you trust me, send me one of your images and I will mail you a print back...

@toxi That's very kind of you. I would love that.

@pyrenaicus Let's do it! It's best if the image has a decent contrast already (and 16 bit TIFF if possible)...
