As you might remember my first attempt at developing T-Max 400 went horribly wrong and the negatives were very thin and fogged in such a silly way that they were very hard to save. Today I’m showing you pictures from one of the rolls that were affected. In the case of this roll things didn’t turn out so terribly bad after a bit of photoshop magic, but for the other two rolls I barely managed to save a handful of shots altogether. For the second batch of T-Max I decided not to experiment with Delta Std again and went back to developing in my usual Caffenol-CL mix with more success. It’s a great developer and hasn’t failed me so far.

All pictures taken with: Leica M6, Zeiss ZM C-Biogon 35mm f/2.8.

I had to get rid of a lot of mad fog in the shadow areas and probably lost a bit of detail in the process.

Good view from up there, but I tend to find such vistas boring photographic subjects.
