One of these things is not like the other…😅
I also reduced my dev time by 15%. With #XTOL I didn’t really have to worry about that switching to rotation, but #HC110 seems a lot more sensitive to it based on the other negs I’ve scanned so far being super dense. It looks to me like I could have reduced it further - but it’s hard to tell given these were shots of dark mountains and bright skies. The two shots where it appears I clearly metered on the mountains look the best so far, but I am still looking forward to seeing how these scan.
I need to go take some pictures of some familiar spots with this film and developer combo to be a better benchmark. #LargeFormat #DevelopYourOwn

I keep forgetting to tag #MonochromeMarch - so here’s a few submissions that were taken and developed this month (part 2 to come via reply). I’ve gathered by context what “zine permission granted” means, so on the off chance you’d like to use any of my shots go for it!

A tree indicated as a “treasure tree" with a tag on a local greenway. I happen to agree!

Ramses is 14 years old. He is my best friend's dog. I was with him when he was adopted in...2012 I think? He's super fluffy and super photogenic.

Some pics from the huge (for this region at least) snow we got last month. I haven't shoveled snow since I lived in the mountains, and boy did it drive home how out of shape I've gotten this winter (and over the last 15 years). 😅
I adjusted my exposure compensation a stop and a half, but I think I could've gone further. Snow is bright!

Soft rose.
This is part of the first of two rolls of #StreetCandyATM400 I ended up with as part of a large film purchase. No idea what to expect, except not much! Think I got a bit more than that. Generally lots of grain, poor definition. I used EI 250, and just for weirds added a red filter.
#Pentax MX, SMC Pentax M 35mm f/2 lens, devved by The Darkroom UK in #XTOL, home scanned.

Last of the film pics from #IsleOfSkye, and #Scotland as a whole. This area is called The Quirang, and is even more strange landscape. If I ever get around to posting some of the digital pics I took, right after this roll of film the clouds and mist finally parted and cleared up across the ridge and allowed me to get a few wonderful color digital pics. It was beautiful.

Huh. So apparently #XTOL is now “XDEV?” Had no clue this was coming. Anyone else seen this yet?

Finally getting back around to posting #Scotland film pics - these are the first of the pics from #IsleOfSkye. We caught the ferry from Mallaig, and picked up our rental car at the ferry terminal. There were definitely a lot more people driving around on Skye than there was on Islay.

I shot 219 rolls of film in 2025. Vast majority was black and white, with #IlfordHP5 and #KodakTriX predictably taking the top spots. My favorite 3 cameras also topped the list. #XTOL is my favorite developer, and the data supports that. This spreadsheet doesn't include the 20-30 exposures I did on 4x5 with the #Graflex.

Two days ago I visited a new (to me) nature trail at a local park. I packed a few rolls of film, chosen based on how sunny out it was. I didn't know how dark and tree-covered the trail would end up being…so this got pushed waaaaay further than I expected (or I would've brought different film!).
Overall most of the 2 rolls were…not great. But there were a few unexpected keepers, shots that were much moodier on film than I remember seeing in person, and that I’m actually really enjoying. Here are a few of the keepers.

Sometimes, you have a few frames left and you shoot them wide open indoors, under artificial lighting, at your dog…and it ends up being the favorite picture on the roll. Don't let his sad eyes make you think he isn't a little shit...but he's our little shit.

Single-image test, updated my export preset to re-include the description in the metadata which pulls into the alt text.
This is looking across the water on the ferry to #Skye. #Scotland

Trying this again with a fresh export, since Mastodon pixelated these all to hell...set my export to 3000 pixels on the longest edge. Now have to add the film metadata to this export preset…
We spent a night in the small town of #Pitlochry. There was a lovely distillery there, and it was a charming little town. #Scotland
