TXP in PMK - 2nd Batch

Just before the August long weekend I processed a second bath of Kodak Tri-X Pan 4" x 5" sheet film in PMK developer.  This batch, like the one a few days prior, was given normal development.  Slowly I am chipping away at my backlog of unprocessed film.  A few of these are from the end of 2011, but most are from 2012.  I scanned several of the better images...
Quite a variety of subject matter in this batch including some studio shots for Palcoprep, and images from the spring and fall photo weekend trips with the Monochrome Guild gang.  This includes a couple of images of what I think is the oldest tree in the province of Alberta.  A Limber Pine in the front ranges of the Rockies that is estimated to be around 1000 years old.
The shot of the old sofa was taken for the Heartland Project, a long term documentary of the changes taking place northeast of Edmonton as some mega-projects associated with the development of the northern Oil Sands begin to get underway.
There are still at least 35 more sheets of this film to be processed, plus an additional quantity that require plus development.  I hope to continue working away at these over the next couple of weeks.
