I was out with my 1969 Rolleiflex 3.5F Planar as it was sunny -- I took some 'Family Snaps' then this bloke came into the pond near our Town Center with his horse and I got him 1/125th at f5.6 on 2004 outdated Ilford Pan F film - I rated it at 25 ASA and processed in FX15 formula but it was over-developed and very contrasty -- luckily I had a box of Ilfobrom Glossy S/W Grade 1 and printed it on that with the D72 print dev laced with some drops of 1% Benzotriazole as it was at least 30 years old -- and it came out well and I scanned the print with my Mustek 1200 UB flatbed + PhotoShop 7 .

You've made a smashing picture here Peter...but your processing went right over my head.
 
CRTM and Trevor Bray : I can't understand when people talk about they did an 'HDR in Lightroom' -- I only know about 'darkrooms' !!

I've been trying out Foma Fomapan Action 400 recently. I know, not everyone's favourite, and I have had trouble with the last few Creative 200 rolls that I used with R09. Anyway, not only do I like budget film, but I also like a challenge. I developed this last night. First appraisal, it has that ashy look of Foma, and looks a bit prone to high contrast, but it is a cheap fairly fast film. No problems so far with backing paper stains. I'm not sure that Foma likes R09, so I'm trying it in cheapskate 1:3 dilutions of Ilford ID11 stock. Developed at 20C for 23 minutes with gentle inversions. every minute.

The above image of the square windows?

Nope, it's a wall at the end of a corridor in my University. You can see the bottom of the stairs to the right leading up.

Had me fooled. I was looking at the window handles thinking they're upside down.
 
From my Skye trip, I had been to the Fairy Pools once before but was limited for time as I had to catch a ferry to Harris, and didn't get to the higher reaches. So on this occasion I made a beeline for that area to catch it with some late afternoon sun before it got too dark.

Mamiya RZ67 ,polariser, and home-developed Portra 160.

Thanks.

It's really weird how I sometimes reject a shot then, months later, quite like it.

Perhaps mood has something to do with it.

I've been trawling through all my old film photos to see if I have any rejects that I now feel more favourable towards.

Come up with these three so far.
