That tree really dominates the house - and that's after it has been trimmed to an inch of its life.

Wow that's old too. Yeah fun pictures to do on a rainy day.

Very nice, what you are posting tells me I need to expand my film horizons and try something different. How are you scanning?

Thanks. What films do you normally shoot now?

I grew up with little yellow boxes and it has been hard to switch. TMY120 and 4x5 mostly these days, TMX in 35mm. I need to look at the offerings coming from EU as they seem to be expanding and getting interesting.

Okay. If you shoot, say, RPX 25 it will be much different than TMX/TMY. RPX 25 is a long toe film. Its clear film base makes for some deep blacks which is common to a lot of Rollei films. RPX 100, on the other hand, has a lot more base + fog density and so far feels like it has a lot more latitude and perhaps make a good general purpose film. But I need to take it outside for a test spin still.

RPX vs APX? In 25 and 100 ISO?

Thanks.
