The Dark Path

To travel in the dark, but never leave it,
in a hole where the sun is just a rumour.
The tunnel endless as the night.

In the Bath

To anyone reading the title and expecting a boudoir image (or dreading a nude selfie!), the title of this post refers to my first time developing film with Cinestill Df96 Monobath. Instead of a separate developer, stop bath  and fixer, this monobath does it all in one step, and requires less rinse time (and less water) afterwards. I can see myself using this product a lot! The images below are from a roll shot in Niagara-On-the-Lake, that I had not gotten around to processing. Glad I waited!

Under a Bridge

From a photo walk near the Brickworks earlier in the fall. The light was amazing for much of the day!

First time shooting the new Ilford Ortho Plus film

Recently (on my birthday on November 16th to be precise) I tried my first roll of the new Ilford Ortho Plus 80 film. It is nice to see a new film come onto the market! I shot it using my Rolleiflex 3.5E3, and I developed the film using Rodinal 1+100, using the stand develop process. I like the look of this film!
