I like the forest floor image a lot, Scott. Perhaps in a few weeks there will be green shoots emerging, or rings of fungi.

Beautiful Hedley. I really like the way the sky is high key and bright but still has separation in those high values bringing out the clouds.
Thanks JP - I sure wish I could get as nice and clean TMY 120 negatives as yours and tuco's. Developed my first 120 Tri-X and TMAX100 rolls last week in Pyrocat HD (Tri-X 8 min @ 75 and TMX100 11 min @ 75 in a CPA2) and they came out very thin and grainy. Probably should have rated them half box speed. On top of that I get that pink stain on the TMAX negatives - did some research and it shouldn't do much harm but my V700 seems to 'see' those pink stains very well :-)
Guess I'll have to do some serious film testing after all - yikes!

Thanks, Roger. That´s very much the effect I was aiming for - it would be possible to print this with a darker tonal emphasis, but I wanted to keep a sense of luminosity and ´fluffiness´ in the clouds and their reflections.

The only tmax I use presently is tmax400. Tmax100 is a completely different animal that is similarly named (in my opinion). The pink stain is from insufficient washing. Leave a roll soaking in still rinse water for 30-40 minutes sometime and it will look like a tank of watered down cranberrry juice. I wash by filling the tank, lettng it sit 5-10 minutes and emptying, repeating this several times when convenient.
