Ex Coelis Mountain

On August 24th I processed a batch of 20 sheets of Kodak T-Max 100 in 510 Pyro Developer.  Development was at 1:100 for 7:45 minutes at 24C.  This has become my favorite film and developer combination and I use it extensively.  This comes after many years of struggling with this film and getting nothing but dull and flat results.  It is amazing what a difference the right developer and development time can make.
I took this image on a cold day in late November of 2021.  This is the Kootenay Plains, with Ex Coelis Mountain in the background.  It was taken from the side of Highway 11 with a 125mm lens.  I used a #25 Red Filter to darken the sky and increase contrast.  The 4x5 negative was cropped a little.
