Beast of Burden (03890026)


B of B, Hexar RF, Zm Biogon 35, Delta 100 @ 50, Tmax Dev
My sister always seems to be carrying something that her sons have dropped.

The last few beachy shots have all been from a couple of rolls of Delta 100 pulled to 50 that I almost ruined by over developing. I was a sleep at the switch when I was mixing the developer. Instead of hitting the mark for Tmax dilution, I hit the mark for fixer dilution. Although the dilution actually ended up at the box recommendation for this film speed, I’ve found that a weaker, off-label dilution of 1+5 works a lot better. These shots were a pain to scan, and the highlights tend to be kind of blocky. But this one works well.
