Great work, Baz.
I'm tempted to try x-ray film myself, except that I see it's very hard to tame. You're doing well!
Where do you get your x-ray film in au?

It has been a journey,I decided to build a 8x10 camera so I bought the seperate pieces of a Kodak 2D
from John Shui and others , got a set of bellows and a lens I decided to go for the Fuji Hrt except in Au no 8x10
only 180x240 so I got 100 sheets from fuji about $45 then a retailer got involved and the price went to $110
which impressed me no end LOL
I have sourced 8x10 from Ebay US from several suppliers knocking me back which is a pain so $30-35 box 100 8x10
around $64 postage so still around the $100 mark. I have tried Australian suppliers and received we don,t sell to the public
line, I am going to contact China instead and see how that goes! For some obscure reason many American sellers will not deal
with Australia ( I suspect the FBI or CIA) lol their loss.
I have been assisted greatly through a mentor who introduced me to BTZS which I use for my 5x4 Arista 200 we used a Btzs
file for Ilford FP4 and did a test print or two to fine tune the file which is on my I-Phone now
so film speed in shade 39 approx in the bright sun I have one on the software showing film-speed 50-60
developer Rodinal 1:100
around 4-5 minutes
development in trays ( 15 sec rocking of the tray sideways and forward and back after neg in tank
15 sec every minute until dev complete) with glass in the bottom of the dev tray
the shots you have seen are the first that I have used a water bath of 2 minutes prior to development
I will continue this as the negative was much better to contact print with ,
stop 20 -30 sec( 3:1 vinegar)and fix 1 minute
I do one at a time,I do not shuffle negs which probably accounts for the tales of easy to scratch origins
I use a Kodak 1A safe light and this stuff it totally blind to the red safe light.
I could list the dozens of mistakes I have made but that's all part of the process.
If you are over in SA any time send me a email and we will have to catch up or if I am over your way
I will send you a email

Very nice Lee, but what is the whole story?
I am still nowhere close to these results.
