As promised, another one of my old car photos from last summer.

Im always a sucker for old cars!

These were both shot on Ilford Pan-F+, the same film I had the problem with last week.  This time I filtered the gunk out of the fix and developed them in Rodinal 1:50 and it came out perfectly clear of spots.  Rolleicord Va.

What type of fixer did you use, Bryan? I've had this problem lately with Ilford Rapid fix, I have to filter it for every film I develop now. I've never had a problem with this before, now I have to filter the fix even before I start using it.

I use Photographers Formulary TF-5 Archival Fix.  It lasts a really long time, I usually stop using it when it gets too much sediment in the bottom of the bottle.  This time I didn’t have it in a clear bottle and I think a lot of the sediment appeared when I developed a bunch of 4X5 film in my large Yankee Agitank.  I’m going to be filtering it a lot more from now on.

Nice shots everyone. The cars are excellent in color. These are some shots I took in Sedona, Arizona and recently developed. I ran out of film while I was there (long story) and the only color film the one local camera store had was E-100. I'm not afraid of a little x-pro, so I got a couple of rolls and loaded up. The first shot is of the sun setting against some prominent rocks. I like the warmth of that one. The other is a shady reflecting pool along the Call of the Canyon trail. The x-pro really divides the sunny shots from the shady ones. Both taken with a Nikon F2. I was carrying a bunch of lenses on that hike, so I don't remember which each of these were.
