this was shot on Tri-x at about iso 250 and developed in Rodinal, then scanned. The combo can be a little harsh when it comes to detail in faces, etc, but I like it a lot

here's another

Nice shots!  Love how you can see the grain even at this resolution on the top of first shot.  I wish my parents had baby shots of me like that. I'd show them off for sure.

thanks Dave
yes, there's just something special about silver halide
here's Tri-X in D76, some more of that grain

@dave:

Rodinal is still available, albeit under different trade names.  Here's one of them: http://www.adox.de/english/ADOLUX/ADOLUX/ADONAL/ADONAL.html

Agfa says R09 One Shot is the same formula as Rodinal but there seems to be a lot of internet debate about whether it's true. I want to like Rodinal but my results with it have been far too inconsistent because of its sensitivity to time/temp/agitation/etc.

my point exactly… im having people coming in offering 40 to 50 bucks for whatever we have left of rodinal but my boss wont sell it because he wants to keep it for his friends

Prime lens or nothing.. im anti zoom  then again, only dogs get to enjoy my camera equipment

^ Word…I love both, even though I'd love to use a Prime primarily, but when my wife would use my Cam, she'd rather use standard.

My latest shot, we bought a new Family Vehicle yesterday, so while it's still new, I snapped a pic:

5D, 16-35L.

Congrats Cris

That's funny, was just out with the family looking at minivans.

Liked the Toyota and the Honda too.

Prime is the way to go. Sold my 24-70 2.8L and picked up a 35 1.4L for everyday shooting with my 5D couldn't bbe happier!

[Finn666]

thanks a lot guys…

G - well you're the first one who said it so i'm pretty happy to hear it! thanks for the kind words mate!...

[babyknight]

Great pictures Finn!

I just picked up an S95.  Was debating between that and upgrading my 40D to a 7D, but in the end figured a great pocket camera would be the way to go… the best pictures are the ones you actually take, and all that...

[gollotti]
