Making a Path

These were not taken with my new camera. But rather with a 35mm canon SLR with Ilford HP5+ 400 in it.This was the first time I had ever attempted to develop my own film. I must say overall I did not do so well. I think I was lucky to get anything from the way I was freaking out in my bathroom.

It all started going bad when I realized that the thermometer that I had was broken. So basically I felt the water to make sure it felt like it was 70 degrees. While putting the film on the film holder I got part of the negatives chewed up and stuck. Then once I started the process my canister was leaking all over the floor.

Needless to say, my wife has banished my developing to the basement. ;)

I will post more from this roll over the next few days. I must have done something very strange in development since the pictures have a very old fashioned look to them.
