Since I’m still struggling with my cold I used the opportunity to edit a colour roll developed with the Jobo CPE-2. The hand-developed rolls that were processed with the Fuji chemicals so far often needed adjustments for edge overdevelopment or I had to leave out pictures that were unevenly developed in the skies. In this case, no such adjustments were necessary and they were all perfectly developed. I’m actually very happy how they turned out. Also the roll of black and white 120 that I developed with the CPE-2 turned out well and I think it will generally be a great help. With the tank extension I will be able to develop 5 rolls at once and I can now also use black and white developers that would force me to babysit the tank if I were to develop by hand. I normally stand-develop black and white because I don’t want to waste my time sitting next to a development tank, but it’s not a reliable method for all situations. I look forward to exploring all the different options my new method of automation will give me.
All pictures taken with: Leica M6, Zeiss ZM C-Biogon 35mm f/2.8.

This is something you see a lot on crossings. A little cash for a little entertainment while the cars have to wait for the light to change.

I would like this one more if the guy on the right didn’t have his phone out. Stupid modern world.

I guess I took the picture because of the T-shirt, but I like the expression of the girl.

We only took the subte a few times, but of course I had to try my hand at subway pictures. That drugstore film looks kinda odd under tungsten light by the way.
