Witch House

A somewhat non-traditional view of the infamous "Witch House" in southern Saskatchewan.  I shot this one back in the spring of 2024, when Chris and I were touring the area for the Beer Parlour Project.  This was taken on a sheet of Ilford HP5+, developed in 510 Pyro.  I mentioned in an earlier post that I use this film for some of my Beer Parlour Project portraits, but when it is underexposed and pushed to 1250 iso, it requires an extended 35:00 minute development time, which is very tedious.  I often only run six or seven sheets at this extended development time, and make up the rest of the batch with film that has been given normal exposure.  That was the case with this image.  
I shot this on June 16th of 2024, at about 6:15 in the evening.  I used a wide 80mm lens on my 4x5 view camera.  A #25 Red Filter created some separation in the sky, and increased contrast a little.  The film was rated at 320 iso and developed for 7:45 minutes.
