Some Arista 100 EDU Ultra @ 400 from the river :)

Pushed to 400... in xtol 100ml, rodinal 4ml, water 100ml (long story)...

Anyway, so here I was loaded, 2 holders with 4 sheets of Arista 100 EDU Ultra, figured I better blow through this stuff Im not fond of so I can justify buying another 50 box of Shanghai mmm

So I metered with my 30D to blow out the sky since it was blue and plain, now I metered at 100, and added 1 stop as I wanted to pull a stop in processing... except I had the 30D set to ISO800 and didnt realise until the 4th shot. Argh! So they were all now 400 ISO exposed.

Anyway, 4th shot exposed as I wanted, ISO 50... when I put the dark slide in it didnt close, tried again and it did... when I get home I pull it out to find the film, in -front- of the damn dark slide, ruining the only correct shot lol.

So I develop the first one.. Xtol 1+1, 10 min... mm underexposed/underdeveloped (yet to scan but i reckon itll still look good) sky is a middle grey, next xtol 1+1 with rodinal 1+100 (100ml xtol, 2ml rodinal, 100ml water) 10 min... a little more shadow detail, darker (brighter) sky, should look good too though... havent scanned these yet (V500... scan in 2 halves argh).

Last one... might as well try something extreme, doubled up the rodinal and went to 15 min, turned out not half bad, still a little under. Looks nice with a bit of post processing

Kodak Ektar 127mm f/4.7 @ f/32 I think.


crop:



Oh yeah photoshop also crashed when I wanted to run noiseware @ the 3200 dpi scan after stitching the two halves... seems like it doesnt like gigantor images lol.

So had to scan the halves a second time..



Here is one I am fond of, I like imperfectness
