I took the 35mm out with me along with the digi & shot a roll of B/W. I like what came out from an artsy point of view. I'm gonna blow'm up to 16 x 20's. Lots of fun to see them become "LARGE" before your eyes!

This is the tail dragger that almost hit the guard rail. Jim Ayers. I like it for the contrast & close-ness of it all....

thanks Sean. I am using the new Kodak B/W 4oo with C-41 processing. They call it a "mono-chrome color" film. I used to use Ilford Xp-2 but found the Kodak to render higher contrast in the dark room without having to use as much red filter. The only one of these pics I retouched is Craigs in which I added a wee bit of contrast to. The rest are as they came off the neg

I like the grain structure. I may have to get the FE tuned up and blow a couple rolls. I remember when Illford first did their b/w with C41, I wasn't too happy with it, it seemed a bit milky to me.

Guys like me are the reason you shouldn't be sitting on your butt while shagging cones. That was
stage II of my first tank slapper of the year.....they take up a lot of room, but give you plenty of time to get "both feet down".
The B&W goes well with the fog & cold.
