Thank you for the kind comments. I finally built an 8x10 holder for my scanner, and that made these blasts from the past photos uploadable. I don't have too many more 8x10 negatives, alas.

Lovely.
Thanks, but I'd rather just watch:

That is an exquisite portrait, Sergei. You really get some great tonality with x-ray film. For an ortho film, x-ray can give much lighter skin tones than I'd expect.

Thanks, Peter. I honestly don't think that this particular type (Kodak CSG) is true ortho, because i never seen it behave like collodion (which for me is true ortho- behavior). I keep seeing results that are freakishly close to TMax , in all the respects. Only thing i keep finding out is that every time i try to shorten development from my usual 12 minutes i get a bit iffy results in shadows. TMax for same dilution of R09 has was shorter development.

Really nice portrait, Tom, do you remember what f-stop and exposure time did you set on the Pentac?
