October 2009: Results from Paper Tests for Solargraphy
For
approximately the same number of days Gregg Kemp in USA and I in Finland had
set out our test cameras to compare the colour results of different papers. The cameras were exposing from September 18th pointed into roughly the same scene until October 25th, 2009. Here are his fine results:
Colours in solagraphs are interesting. How is it possible to see the results in colours?
In my experimental tests I have notices some differences with black and white photographic papers in the past. I have set out several cameras to compare the colour results of different papers. Each camera was loaded with a different type of black and white photographic paper as Kodak Professional Polymax II RC White Smooth Glossy, Kentmere Variable Contrast paper Select Glossy M.Wt, Ilford Multigrade III RC De Lux MGX 1M, Ilford MCIV Multigrade IV RC De Lux, Fomaspeed Variant 311 Multigrade, Fomabrom Variant 111 Multigrade, Argentone BW photographic paper Polybrom RC Variable, Fujifilm Fujibromide Rembrant V G2 BW paper Variable grade.
The project 80+1 is taking place in Kilpisjärvi, (Finland) and in Linz (Austria) from 17, June to 6, September.2009 and online in the Internet. More information; www.kilpiscope.net
The project presents high-standard artistic and scientific perspectives on the issue of climate change and its impact in the arctic. It is a large-scale project together with Kilpisärvi Biological Station (Helsinki University), Ars Electronica Center (Linz, Austria), and the Finnish BioArt Society.

On 21, June is time to replace the exposed pinhole cans with new ones.
The name ”Solstice” is derived from the Latin sol (sun) and sistere (to stand still), because at the solstices, the Sun stands still in declination; that is, the apparent movement of the Sun's path north or south comes to a stop before reversing direction.
Here are solargraphs exposed in April 2009 at 67°N and 19°E. You can compare the document photograph with the solargraphs exposed face the West in a vertical and a horizontal positions.
Worldwide Pinhole Photography Day will be held all over the world on Sunday, April 26, 2009. This is an international event created to promote and celebrate the art of pinhole photography. I have attended to this worldwide Pinhole Day already four times with my solargraphics of Worldwide Pinhole Day. http://www.pinholeday.org/org/
The March equinox will occur on March 20 in 2009, marking the beginning of spring in the northern hemisphere and fall (autumn) in the southern hemisphere. The March equinox will occur at 11:44 (am) at Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) on this date.
