They look great!
Welcome!

I had a senior portrait session with Abby on the right. I asked if I could take a 4x5 of her and her sister Amy.

Hah....thanks for that. Yeah.... my last negative was good, but had smears on it. Using tap water at the end and a bit of some dish soap in the water for final rinse.
Success! After a lot of frustration and some trial and error....it turns out the distilled water I had bought (cheap), was not too clean and affected the chemicals. New distilled water now and a...
What a great bunch of portraits here. Really nice work.
Great job.
I set up a small one in my basement recently using a 3' plastic tub with a small aquarium heater in it. Keeps everything about 72 degrees. Then I use plastic trays set up in a holder in the water...
I could test that by increasing the concentration?
Haha...yeah...I was wondering the same thing. But I know I had the notches top right. Thanks for the other suggestions. I will keep at it until I figure it out.
I just started working in my homemade darkroom in the basement developing 4x5 T-Max 400. Using HC-110 and TF-4 Archival Fix.
- Water bath 2 min.
- Develop time:have tried 5.5 -7 min. @72...
Ok...thanks.
I'm sorry.....I'm using T-Max 400 4x5.
I have been finding a wide range of times recommended for developing with HC-110. What times (vs temperatures) should I try? I will be developing around 72-75 degrees.
Thanks.
All wonderful images.
Self portrait?

Wonderful, Ken.
Wonderful.
Great question and one I also wanted to ask on here! I will now read the responses.
I have also been doing for portraits for people the last 10 years or so. Mostly high school senior photos...
Wonderful shot. Would be great if you could get this to them.
This is very nice. Good job.
Wow...this is wonderful. Well done.
Beautiful images.
Very nice!
Very nice!
He looks like Burt Lancaster to me.
Love this one. DOF makes it great.

Very nice!
Great shot. My favorite one on here.
I just love this one. Great job.
Do you know why they did not harvest those trees in the water? It must have been a tough hike to get your shot?
Very nicely done. When I first saw this I had to do a double-take as she looks a bit like Joni Mitchell (singer/artist)
Those are just wonderful. The focus, soft lighting and pinkness all come together greatly.
FWIW,
I thought the vase a distraction.

Focusing on the hole, otherwise your eye wanders too much. ...
I hope this doesn't keep these folks from posting their wonderful images. I want to see them all. Please keep posting! Gives me something too shoot for. I love seeing all the images. I wouldn't mind...
I like the vertical crop. I think I'd try a flip horizontally.
We drove by this area last fall and it was like a different planet. Really weird. The rock and rubble at the bottom are very dark. When I saw your photo I knew immediately where it was taken.
No, the Menominee River, Piers Gorge. Separates Wis. and the UP.
This is my 3rd attempt in the darkroom. Getting better I think.
