Probably the most exciting part of the entire film process: converting your negatives and seeing the results. 🙃
This frame is from a roll of @ilfordphoto HP5 that sat in my fridge for almost 11 months before I finally developed it. I tend to collect exposed rolls until I have enough to develop and scan in one go (and since I mostly shoot color, it takes a while to build up a decent batch of B&W).
This time around, I was struck again by just how simple the B&W process really is. Developed in Rodinal (push +1), stopped with tap water, fixed with Ilford Fixer. That’s it. So simple, so swift, so clean.
As you can see in the clip, the frames came out looking good straight after conversion. I played around a little with contrast and tones just for the fun of it, but honestly, it wasn’t necessary.
Man, how much effort color film processing takes (especially with remjet layer) compared to this. Maybe it’s time to shoot more B&W ? 🥲
