Use of X-ray film: technical discussion with example images

If you go back far enough here, and on APUG you will find lots of experience reports.

Some folks have experienced a little fogging. i use a thomas, fairly closed , with printing on VC and my body blocks direct illumination- i haven't seen any fog, plus i loaded the film in safelite- boy is that a pleasure.
A good developer is the one you have- if you don't have one, start with D-76.
Jim Fitzgerald likes pyrocat- he does carbon transfer. YMMV
Congratulations on no scratches. Try blocking off half the safelite before you spend money on a new filter

Two from Friday. Two more to follow.
8x10 Blue sensitive Xray, 14" Verito lens.
One side stripped.
ISO 50, Tray developed, Dektol 1:10 for 2.5 minutes.

Next two.

Here's mine and a behind the scenes shot from a recent trip. The neg came out flawless after 8 times TSA scan.I'm very pleased with the result although I have 37 people onboard for this excursion.

I can see what this will look like in carbon. A huge undertaking Tri. Congratulations!

Thanks Jim, only the fisherman can spot another fisherman from the distance. The 8gr tissue was prepared for this one already.

Here's my favorite orchid called Dendrobium.

Tri, these are beautiful! I'd always thought that you have a wealth of subject matter in your backyard.

I can see why its a favorite - I like both prints, but the second one really grabs me - Beautiful!

TT Fabulous prints. The Orchid is very interesting and certainly could be a favorite of mine too if i could find one.
