This past weekend I processed a couple of batches of Ilford Delta 100 film in Pyro [PMK] developer. I quite like this combination, though not quite as much as Kodak TXP in this developer. This time around I had some equipment issues. The light baffle in one of my Jobo Expert tanks came loose and I didn't notice it. With the first batch I ended up with about a half dozen sheets that were partially fogged. But the baffle was only loose at this point, and I did not notice that it was an issue. During processing of the second batch the baffle fell off all together and the resulting light leaks ruined all 10 sheets. Some of these exposures dated as far back as 2010. Fortunately it appears as though I have other versions of these shots on other types of film. As far as I can tell, it looks as though nothing was lost completely. Here are some scans of some of the images from these batches that were not ruined...
