In my efforts to catch up with my excessive shooting habits – I have a problem, I admit it – I developed 4 rolls today, all pushed in Rodinal. I’m done now with all the pushed black and white film I had left, but I still have quite a few rolls of C41 film to develop. Tomorrow I’ll finish off my old C41 chemicals with a couple rolls of pushed C41 BW film and then start the new batch off with a roll of Cinestill. I’m really looking forward to that one, because I’ve been wanting to try it for a while.

By the way, the solution for “my problem” will hopefully arrive soon: I bought myself a Pakon F135+ after all and it has already reached Spain. Now, here’s to hoping that it will get through customs quickly so that I can start scanning at lightning speeds! Imagine that, scanning a whole uncut roll of film in 3 minutes! That way I maybe have a chance to keep up with myself.

All pictures taken with: Olympus XA, F.Zuiko 35mm f/2.8.
Eastman Double-X stand-developed in Caffenol-CL, 60min.

Seems that I got noticed again!

Although that particular building site is gone now there always seem to be some around.

Looks like it wasn’t that cold then. These days it’s freezing though.

Notice the umbrellas? Well, around here those are important in winter. Better than snow and freezing fingers while shooting, but still hugely annoying. I don’t shoot manual cameras when it rains.
