I have been in a funk photographically for a few days. Too busy to do much in the way of photography and not all that happy with the images I was taking. I did go out yesterday morning to Taylor Creek Park and finished off a roll languishing in a film back for my Hasselblad and got a few I liked.
Hasselblad 500 CM, 50mm/f4 Distagon lens
Ilford Fp4 Plus film, developed in Rodinal
Voigtlander Bessa R2M, 50mm/f2 Heliar Classic lens

While we have gone back to our typical weekend overcast this afternoon, it was actually bright and sunny in the Beaches this morning.

This is a carousel at Nathan Philips Square in Toronto (beside the skating rink). I like the glow of the lights of a ride at night
Rolleiflex 3.5E3 (Xenotar lens)
Kodak TMax 400 film exposed @ EI 3200
Developed in TMax developer 1+4 for 8.25 minutes @ 24 C
Thus performer had a great voice, and his performance was connecting with passersby in a way that street performances often do not.

Tri-X film @ EI 3200, 2 hour semi-stand development in Rodinal 1+100

It’s not always pretty colours.

Ilford Pan F Plus film
I like the combination of Ilford HP5 Plus and Microdol-X Developer (I am using vintage packets of the latter; once it’s gone it’s gone so I will need to switch to the equivalent from other suppliers). It was a very dull day light-wise in the Beaches recently when I shot this but film/developer combination managed to pick out enough contrast.
