At ten weeks after my surgery I was given permission to start walking normally, without the air boot that I have been wearing. It was at that point that I seriously hit the darkroom. Not only did I print a bunch of stuff for Appartions, but I also dove into my backlog of undeveloped film. I ran four batches of film, each 20 sheets, for a total of 80. There is still a significant backlog ahead of me, despite this volume
I ran a batch of Ilford FP4, rated at 160 iso, and given plus development in HC-110. Then I ran a bath of Ilford HP5, this was split with 13 sheets exposed at 320 and given normal development, and 7 sheets exposed at 1250 iso and given extended development. Both were developed in 510 Pyro. Finally I ran two batches of Kodak T-Max 100, exposed at 80 iso, and given normal development in 510 Pyro. Some of this film dated as far back as 2023, and my trip to Vancouver Island, while some was as recent as the last Beer Parlour Project outing a couple weeks ago.
This particular shot was taken on one of my tours of the Nordegg Mine Site. There are two of these old houses left on site and I believe that at one time there may have been more. These were prefabricated houses made in Vancouver and then shipped to site for quick assembly.
This was one of the sheets of Ilford HP5, rated at 320 iso, and given normal development. I shot this on August 26th 2024, at about 3:15 in the afternoon. I used my Ebony view camera and a wide 75mm lens. No filter was used. The exposure was for 1/8 second at F20.0.
