shoot

One of the rolls I developed earlier really made me smile. It was an entire roll of pictures from the city festival and I caught some great stuff. I’m very much looking forward to showing it to you. However, I will probably develop the other rolls first and make a longer post with all the pictures. Since I only have single rolls of Tri-X, RPX400 and XP2 left to develop it will probably have to wait a little until I shoot a roll that I can combine with those in the tank. My favourite ways of developing RPX400, XP2 and Tri-X make them non-combinable. This tells you though that I’m catching up on the development! There are a couple of rolls of medium format Tri-X to be developed too, but then that’s it on the BW front! I also want to make some progress on the C41 front, before I travel to Germany, because I will be coming back with more stuff to develop, but for this I will first have to get rid of my old C41 chemicals, which is actually not so trivial. This stuff is rather too toxic to chuck it down the drain.

By the way, just as was to be expected, dealing with customs for my new Pakon is a bit more difficult than it should be. In this case the number just didn’t want to work with the online system of Correos so that we had to send the paperwork back by normal post. I hope that it won’t take too long nevertheless, because obviously I want to try it out as quickly as possible!

All pictures taken with: Rolleicord V, Schneider-Kreuznach Xenar 75mm f/3.5.

I don’t think he can complain … His board says shoot! I obliged.

In winter there are only two kinds of people on the beach: 1. surfers. 2. dogs (and their can-openers).

He was totally posing for me and didn’t want to move one bit although his owner was calling.
