Showing off some of my own products while finally getting to spend some time in my darkroom making some prints. Here's one I took last summer during our suba diving vacation to Cozumel with @divemasterscuba . Taken with my Nikonos V and shot on the gorgeous (and sadly discontinued) Adox Silervermax film. As the notes show, it was a straight print using a #2 filter. I could have probably burned in the sand on the left up into the tunnel just a little bit though as is I still quite like it. I used @ilfordphoto 's gorgeous FB Classic paper and developed it in Photographer's Formulary 130 with Ilford stop and rapid fix.

I used my own series of accessories (as I usually do) - my 35mm D2 carrier, my D2 filter tray (for Ilford filters), and my brand new Simpleasel for fiber paper (which still needs a clever name). Thanks to @drunk.darkroom for helping me by beta testing the design and offering suggestions. I hope to make this available soon! In the meantime, folks that might be interested can send me a PM for more info on what it is and how it works.

Finally, crossing the streams a bit by using a song off my band (@theband)'s last album, Alien Me, called E.V.O.L.V.E. It makes for good darkroom montage music I think (you can find us on music.victimcache.com).

Taken during a beautiful swim through while diving last week in Cozumel, Mexico during our phenomenal vacation on a what I hope is a yearly @divemasterssa trip. This trip was special as it was a tribute and memorial to our good friend and former owner of Diver Masters, Tom. I took quite a few rolls of film (both color and black and white) so there's a lot to go through still.

This was taken with my Nikonos V with the 15mm lens on @adoxphoto 's Silvermax and developed in Silvermax developer. This trip I wanted to experiment around some with different films and shooting some black and white since I haven't done that in Cozumel in quite some time. The results I got from Silvermax were pretty unexpected (and in a good way). It just might be my new favorite black and white film to take in blue water (at least on a sunny day). I'll have to see how well it prints in the darkroom though but wow, what a film!

Rollei Retro 80s is supposed to be a very high resolution film. My results have been so so up to now. I wasn’t happy until I tried Rodinal semi-stand developing technique. 1:250 dilution. This tamed down the high contrast and kept the high resolution. I’m more than pleased!
