It turned out well. I like the creamy white effect from the shutter speed in this shot.
I've done stand development both in 120 roll and sheet film. For me, it's a risk of uneven development. It's hit and miss on the same roll. I've tried different ways and suggestions. But I have observed one natural law. The better the picture, the higher the probability it will have uneven development. :)
The way I understand it is we agitate film in the first place to replenish exhausted developer along the so-called fluid boundary layer common to the surface of the film. And we agitate in a vigorous enough way to make sure we did that. So for development to happen without doing this means some natural convection occurs or something. I have no clue. But I do think such a process would be delicate and subject to not working "evenly" on large areas of film. When I think of roll film wrapped on my SS reels, I know the gap between wraps can be variable (toughness of the wrap) . Does something like that change the dynamics of it all. I dunno.

Thanks tuco. I've been happy with semi-stand, but I usually do more agitation than true "stand" development. Perhaps I get away with that, or perhaps my setup just happens to work fine.
Vaughn lovely print, I missed it earlier.

Very nice work, Andrew. How was Caddo Lake from an LF perspective? I'd like to plan a trip there but it looks like solid ground for tripods is scarce.

Thanks!
This was taken in the park near Oil City,LA. I'm not certain about the Texas side, though I'm sure there must be a park or a boat ramp. You could always try the Louisiana side.

If you keep rolling another hour or so to Doyline, Lake Bistineau is another nice cypress-y body of water, again with a state park and cabins. Unlike Caddo Lake, however, it does experience seasonal draw-downs as they try to fight the spread of salvinia, so it might be worth calling ahead for conditions.
(FWIW, speaking of cypress, I always wanted to explore the Edwards Plateau a bit more, especially that turquoise water swirling around the cypress trees there on the Guadalupe and San Saba.:))
