October was one of the dryest in age ages here in Western Europe. Summer extends into November with a lot of sun on the yellow brown leaves. It can differ a lot on the globe.

Usually October is pretty nice here, with many sunny days. However not this year!

A shot with my crown graphic and caltar-s 210mm f5.6.
Also I love the stearman press sp-445 for developing my 4x5 negatives. Very nice, easy to use system.

Likewise; I don't expect I'll be doing much tray development any more.

I had not heard of the SP-445 before the post above. I had been using an adapted Unicolor print drum and motor base for 4x5. It works well, but is prone to leaks. Assuming the agitation works well, the Stearman Press looks like a very viable option. Have either of you used it with dilute developer and/or semi-stand?

I haven't. There's a Flickr group for it, but very little discussion so far.

I just finished editing about 85 rolls of film from the last year. I was happy with some of the shots. Here they are with camera, lens, film, and development data.

Pentax LX, Vivitar RL Edition 28mm 2.8 in PKA, Tri-X 400 @400, D-76 1+1 9:30

Pentax LX, SMC-M 28mm f/2.8 (RIP), Adox CMS II 20 @20, D-76 1+3 10:30
If anyone has read all the APUG and similar forum threads denouncing D-76 for Adox 20 ISO film as 'just giving snow and ashes', I've been using this dilution and time a lot and it's working very well at delivering gray tones that hold their own against many other films. Here are a couple more from that same shoot with the same lens and film.

Pentax LX, 50mm f/1.4 (probably, maybe the 31mm 1.8), Rollei Retro 80S @80, RPX-D 1+19 8:00

Minolta Alpha 9, Sigma 70-300, Kodak 5222 Double-X @250, L110 1+31 6:00

Minolta X-700, Vivitar 24mm f/2, Kodak TMax 400 @400, Rodinal 1+25 6:00

Miranda Sensorex II, Soligor 50mm f/1.4, Delta 100 @400, Rodinal 1+50 23:00

Minolta Alpha 9, 50mm f/1.7, Delta 3200 @3200, D-76 1+3 16:00

Very nice, really like the Adox shots. Have you tried Silvermax yet, it works great processed as a positive.
