Beer Parlour Project - BP 17.0 Eckville

Here is a scan of a recently processed negative.  This was a sheet of Ilford HP5+, rated at 1250 iso and developed in 510 Pyro.  Development time was significantly extended, at 30:00 minutes, to compensate for the extreme underexposure.
This is a shot of Malcolm, the self-proclaimed Sheriff of Eckville.  I didn't have a lot of luck shooting in Eckville.  The light levels in the tavern were very low, and at that point in time I had not yet started using my studio lights.  In addition to that, everyone in Eckville seemed to be having too much fun.  Despite my explanation that I was shooting an old film camera... and that exposures were very long... and there was a need for the subject to hold very still for up to a couple of seconds... the patrons had difficulty following instructions.  Perhaps the beer is to blame....
