Thanks!

Unfortunately, I don't develop my shots myself. I send them to one of the few remaining film developers in this part of the world. I may eventually get into the developing of my B+W film, but not right now. In any case, I'm happy with their work.[COLOR="Silver"]

My setup with the KX and Voigt Nokton 58/1.4 SLII...

That Nokton seems to be a GOOD piece of glass, congratulations for the black KX, most of black Ks are heavily debrassed and look like they've been chewed or something like that.

I've enjoyed following this thread, but it's been a while since I've posted here. It's time for me to shoot some more film!

Here is one from last year - a rock pile (but not as nice as the one by Vinceloc!)...

Pentax H1A, S-T 55mm f1.8, Kodak Tri-X @ ISO400, Rodinal 1+100 standard agitation for 30 minutes, scanned with Epson V500

Yes, I used it too. It archives your prints as well. I also used Kodak's brown toner too. You could mix it at different strengths to get more or less brown and with a warm tone paper it would turn really brown.

If you have a flat negative, you can process it in a diluted mixture of selenium and hypo cleaning agent to expand your highlights. Ansel Adams documents the the process in the book, The Negative. His test show about equal to N+1 processing.

Very nice work with the view camera! I am not familiar with these falls, though they may be worth a field trip south.

Found out this old picture I've taken last year with my then new Pentax K1000, it's a power plant, taken at f2.0 and 1/30s.

Plus some Leica bokeh:

Thanks, Steve, this is the smaller of the two Shellberg falls. The main falls is 60-70 ft walk behind falls. It is located east of salem on 22 at Mehama, OR. An easy mile wake on an old road from the parking lot.
