Kentucky Darkroom and Processing

03/08/2024

Here's a video I found when finding version of "Seven Bridges Road," a song I really like.

To me, this is a B&W video with toning. It's not sepia, it's....

Hmmm. Know it's applied in post, but don't know what it is.

Kinda want to reproduce it for a few shots I have...

Ideas?

Help me create the Wildwood cabin/studio on the 11-acre wood.

Does anyone know of someone who does bobcat work (leveling ground, pushin' dirt around) really reasonably? We just bought some wooded acres in Southern Ky about an hour from Lex and need a cabin/studio site worked up. It's about a foot of "material" to be relocated closely, scraped off of sandstone bedrock.

Ours will be a little larger than the below rental cabin (which picture I stole for illustrative purposes), not two stories, and have a greenhouse and a couple of "out-buildings" (can you say Out House?) Will be very similar in look and feel and be up on top near the edge of a 20' rocky cliff, with wonderful wooded acres below and around.

Completely off-grid. Yeah, a challenge, but in the long run... No Electric Bills, No Water Bills, and propane only for cooking and the generator if solar gets gloomy days.

Can't wait to get started!

Any other helpful folks you might refer?
