Wow!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think you have every right to be pleased, these images are VERY impressive. I can't say which is my favorite, although I'm leaning towards the river scene - I have a thing about water you know.

What and how did you develop these? I'm not up on this particular film.

Thank you Robert.

I have a thing about water too. There is something exciting yet calming about it.

According to my notes, I developed this in HC-110 for 9 minutes. I find the grain less pronounced than HIE, but I've only used that film a couple of times, and certainly not to its potential. I find this film to have excellent contrast, but with very pleasing mid-tones as well.

I'm definitely going to pick up some more of this film. I finished a roll in 35mm yesterday, but haven't had a chance to soup it yet.

Thanks again for the comments. I had high hopes for this film and to my great relief, it did not disappoint. (much credit to my Rolleiflex 3.5f... by far the best camera I have ever owned.)

Cheers,
Tom
(now to break out those rolls of Maco Aura I have in my freezer)

Great work Tom,

IR is a very challenging film to use. I would probably call myself IR challenged. I have some 5x4 IR in the freezer so I think I should try it soon.
