Decisions on a final product

I've been thinking about a final product for the project. I'm thinking I might mat and frame 10 of the best photos for the year and try to pedal them around time to get shown in various coffee shops, or similar locations. For the sake of consistency, I'll be sticking with the 35mm rangefinders, Canon P and Bessa R, with a 35mm and a 50mm. The shots will be printed as 6x9 images full frame to 8x10 paper, matted with just a little space outside the image.

Developing times

As a bit of sloppy temperature measurement, I processed a bunch of Neopan 400 in D76 1:1 for 9.5 min at 19 C instead of 20 C. Just got done making some prints, and they're beautiful! Here's to a fortunate mistake!

Prints!!!

I'm almost caught up on developing, and I finally made some prints! These are an accumulated effort, so there's quite a few. All and more are at http://www.flickr.com/photos/jasonthomas/sets/72157620841771068/.

Catching up

I'm finally getting to developing the backlog of film. I developed about 9 rolls this week, only my temperatures were too low and my fixer was old. The resulting negs look a little flat and I've spent the day refixing them with fresh fixer. I'll probably have to bump up the contrast when I print them up. I have a few more prints to scan, but just haven't gotten to it yet.
