One of my favourite parts of this city are the streetcar interchanges that pop up around the downtown. Particularly the way the overhead wires criss-cross when they occur.

Another one from the Mess-Baldix. Baltar f4.5 75mm lens; Ilford Delta 400 in DD-X 1+4 for 8 mins @ 20 C.

Svema Super Positive 0.8 ISO
Pentax LX FA77 Limited
ID-11 7 minutes

Not sure I really like this film... Like a lot of Svema films, it is a very thin base and hard to work with. But this film seems to fog, and it seemed like a characteristic of the film when I looked online at others.

Finally finished a roll of expired AgfaColor 100 ... testing an acquired K2 (needs CLA for the ASA ring, etc. - stuck @100) with a K 35/2. Home developed in Ilfotec (29 + 1) @ 20° for 15 minutes. Scanned as a color negative via the Epson V600 and sometimes a bit of Lr4.

If you tilt your head to the right, you'll see the actual steepness.

It’s a bit tough to work with, but Florida provides plenty of light this time of year.

They also have an iso 6 and 3, which I tested a roll of each. I really liked the iso 6 and will probably shoot some more, but I have to work on development times because there’s very little information available.

Tuff for sure. My GSW690III needs to be stopped down to get DOF. I like shooting it at f16 when I can but f8 is common. So the Sunny 16 rule says, what, 1.25 seconds or say 1 second exposure at f16 on a bright, sunny day? And that equals 1/4 sec at f8. And that's no filter. Yikes, I'd need a tripod all the time with it because the fastest this semi truck of a camera can do is f5.6.

1/60 at ƒ2 (if you have an ƒ2 lens or faster.) It seems only to be available in 35mm and is really a direct positive microfilm duplication film. I'm kind of curious because it develops to positive in standard chemistry. (i.e. no bleach and re-exposure needed.)

Hang on a minute -- if I tilt my head to the right, then the Jeep is sitting on a horizontal section of this path. But the little shrub behind the Jeep is showing that, clearly, the Jeep is indeed sitting on a steep section of the path. Because the shrub is growing vertically, donchaknow.

You can really tilt your head a lot

Yes, the Jeep is still on a steep section but not as steep as shown. The camera is tilted about 15 degrees or so.
