Pushing & Pulling Film:
you can read the full thread, or keep reading for my condensed version.

Pushing film involves deliberately underexposing your image, then asking your lab to push (over-develop) the film 1 or 2 stops to compensate. This results in higher contrast than you would get shooting and developing a film at its rated speed.

Pulling film involves deliberately overexposing your image, then asking your lab to pull (under-develop) the film 1 or 2 stops to compensate. This results in lower contrast than you would get shooting and developing a film at its rated speed.

Bear in mind that cross processing already increases contrast, so you may have to consider pulling the film to compensate. Here are a couple of real world examples:

• Its sunny outside, and what you are shooting is very high contrast. You shoot 200 ISO film as if it were 100 ISO. You then drop your film off and ask the lab to cross process it, and to pull 1 stop. This results in your pictures having more normal contrast while still leaving room for colour casts.
• You are shooting something indoors, and there is low contrast in your scene. You shoot your 400 ISO film as if it were 800 ISO. You subsequently drop your film off at the lab and ask them to cross process it, and to push 1 stop. This results in your pictures have higher contrast than they would have done normally.

Types of cross processing

• E6-C41: taking slide (colour reversal) film, and processing it in colour negative chemicals. This is the most common type of cross processing. It usually results in increased contrast with strong colour casts.
• C41-E6: taking colour negative film and developing in slide chemicals. This usually results in muted pastel colours with very little contrast. As a result you may want to ask your lab to push 2 or 3 stops to increase the contrast.
• E6/C41-B&W: taking colour reversal or negative film and processing as black and white. This results in a black and white negative. As colour film is usually more expensive than B&W, you may want to only use this technique if you are out shooting colour and decide you'd rather have B&W.

some cross processed images:
- The film used was Fujifilm Sensia 400/cross processed.

*First of all, cross processing may overexpose your image by about one stop. Therefore, you need to account for this when shooting. If you’re shooting 100 ISO film, just set your camera setting to 200 ISO. This will allow less light in, taking care of the overexposure. It’s best if you run a roll normally, with no adjustments, to determine if you even need to worry about this.

The first roll I did was processed pretty much on target, without any ISO adjustments.

Contemporary Art Museum, Niteroi, Rio de Janeiro

By gandy_

Designed by Oscar Niemeyer with the assistance of structural engineer Bruno Contarini, who had worked with Niemeyer on earlier projects, the MAC-Niterói is 16 meters high; its cupola has a diameter of 50 meters with three floors. The museum projects itself over Boa Viagem (“Bon Voyage,” “Good Journey”), the 817-square meter reflecting pool that surrounds the cylindrical base “like a flower,” in the words of Niemeyer......thanks to wikipedia!

Subterranean Homesick Blues

Johnny’s in the basement
Mixing up the medicine
I’m on the pavement
Thinking about the government
The man in the trench coat
badge out, laid off
Says he got a bad cough,
wants to get it paid off
Look out kid
It’s somethin’ you did
God knows when
But you’re doin’ it again
You better duck down the alleyway
Lookin’ for a new friend
The man in the coon-skin cap
by the big pen
wants eleven dollar bills
you only got ten

Maggie comes fleet foot
face full of black soot
Talkin’ that the heat put
Plants in the bed but
The phone’s tapped anyway
Maggie says that many say
They must bust in early May
Orders from the D.A.
Look out kid
Don’t matter what you did
Walk on your tiptoes
Don’t try “No-Doz”
Better stay away from those
That carry around a fire hose
Keep a clean nose
Watch the plain clothes
You don’t need a weatherman
To know which way the wind blows

Get sick, get well
Hang around a ink well
Ring bell, hard to tell
If anything is goin’ to sell
Try hard, get barred
Get back, write braille
Get jailed, jump bail
Join the army, if you fail
Look out kid
You’re gonna get hit
But users, cheaters
Six-time losers
Hang around the theaters
Girl by the whirlpool
Lookin’ for a new fool
Don’t follow leaders
Watch the parkin’ meters

Ah get born, keep warm
Short pants, romance, learn to dance
Get dressed, get blessed
Try to be a success
Please her, please him, buy gifts
Don’t steal, don’t lift
Twenty years of schoolin’
And they put you on the day shift
Look out kid
They keep it all hid
Better jump down a manhole
Light yourself a candle
Don’t wear sandals
Try to avoid the scandals
Don’t wanna be a bum
You better chew gum
The pump don’t work
’Cause the vandals took the handles

still can't get over how much i love this,
