My MBP’s short encounter with the internet = A quick update.

I have developed 4 rolls of film so far. All Tri-X in D76 1:1. The image above is the first frame from the first roll.

As you can see the tonality of the image is rather uneven. It could be either due to my agitation technique or the fact that the lighting was too harsh for ISO 400.

Imperfections that i have grew to like and learned to accept.

Developed my first roll of film last night!! How exciting!!
TriX ISO400 in Rodinal 1:50 for 13 minutes. Temp 22 degrees.
Agitated for first 30s then 10s every minute.
Ilford Rapid Fixer for 3mins then Kodak PhotoFlo. 

On a more somber note, the week did not end as well as i hoped it would. Very disappointed.
At least the film developing took my minds off things for a moment

Anyways, these are frames 3, 4, 5 and 21
