Originally posted by tuco Did you use a colored filter on that lighthouse? The sky rendered with a nice, deeper tone. I've noticed with some of my shots from years ago using T-max developer that skies seem come out darker than when I use PMK for the same filter or not. So it looks like developer choice can be a factor.
The T-Max films seem to scan nicely too. I've started shooting them more often after a period of not using them much.
No, I didn't use a filter on this shot. I would guess that the harsh bright light on the lighthouse itself helped to contrast with the sky, so exposing for the white of the lighthouse resulted in a darker sky. I did accentuate the tone of the sky after the scan slightly but the deeper tone was already there. The Tmax seemed to pick up on the gradient of tones in the sky really well; I'd say more so than was noticeable to the eye.
I think I really need to get some coloured filters

BTW, just to avoid confusion on this shot here, I used Ilford ID-11 in 1+1 @ 19 degrees C.

Haven't had my 67 out as much as would like to but I managed to shoot a roll of Tri-X a few weeks back.
Here's a few, both with 67 and 90/2.8 LS
How do you like the Tri-X with the 67? It's one of my favourites now
cheers,
