Shot this roll on my Bronica S again, this time a roll of Ilford HP5+ 400 pushed two stops to 1600 in HC-110 dilution B. I kept the contrast manageable by agitating less often than I ordinarily would.
I'm happy with the way they turned out, and I really like the images I got.
I started it in mid-December, loaded after Hannukah dinner (the day of the last photos on the "ghetto scanning" entry's roll) It sort of sat there for another 3 weeks while I got the new semester going, and I killed the roll within three days at the end of the month. Had a little burst of inspiration. Two of the photos here I shot just before I finished the roll.

Okay, I'm going to be honest here. I'm having a real problem with the whole square format thing. It honestly isn't quite 'me'- but it does allow me room to crop the way I want. And crop I did for some of these.
I seem to have a bit of an aspect ratio problem in general. I'm trending to formats that are more square than the 3:2 ratio you get from 35mm on the stills side (6x7, 4x5), but wider aspect ratios for motion (1.85:1, 2.40:1). I'm not comfortable in the middle (3:2) or extreme (square).
To be quite open, I'm not sure why this is, or if it's good for me.
Well, that sums it up. Thoughts? Questions? Concerns? Absolute trashing? Let'er rip.
