Show us yer film shots then!

A nice walk where I was pleased with the camera, pleased with the film and pleased with myself, not because the images are magnificent or anything, but because I think I learned something important that will stand me in good stead for future expeditions.
Can’t ask for more than that.

Lovely pictures, great reflections!
 
An old door with a modern lock?
did not notice that Brian, was trying to convey opening the door into the light. The flipping sign was bolted to the wall or I would have moved it. LOL
 
I adjusted my monitor last night to better match my print to what I was seeing.

So please let me know if things look different or odd.

The sign is the most interesting element for me.
 
I didn't use the whole roll at Chester, so took camera out for few more snaps and found this interesting, to me, scene. The fungus that was growing from beneath the bark, living thing that looks like a tree growing on a dead thing that used to be a tree.

Fomapan 400. Rodinal 1+100 semi-stand 1 hour @ 20°

One from my first ever bulk-rolled cassette. I only rolled about 12 frames as a test, but they all seem to be good in terms of no scratches or light leaks. The semi-stand for the Fomapan 400 worked well too with 30 secs of initial inversions, then a single gentle inversion at 15 min intervals. Lots of grain, but in a way I like.

An Overcast freezing cold day up on the West Pennine moors yesterday, The wind was biting and blew straight through your clothes I had to go back to the car and put on a waterproof jacket over the top of my windproof, and it was still freezing.

I took this knowing I was going to use my home made developer.

Surprised the tree came out so well considering the slow shutter and the wind.
 
Low Water Level.
The level of the Watergrove Reservoir was recently quite low. It was flooded in the mid-1930s, I guess this tree has stood there all this time.
