Recent travel through Wyoming on original Acros, medium format. Shot on my Bronica ETRS, I think these are all with my 50mm but maybe the last one is 150mm. I bought the Acros on here from some guy who had a ton of it. I may buy more. Absolutely love it.

Nice shots. The bottom left corner on all of them looks a bit lighter? Light leak?
Yeah, I was using a 220 back, or maybe I didn't wrap my roll tight enough when I took it out... still trying to figure that out. I'm learning to embrace imperfections.

How did you scan it? It looks more like a scanning thing to me.
My wife and I headed to Lincoln City on the Oregon central coast for a couple of days. Lincoln City sits on the 45 parallel which often leads to wind conditions that are ideal for kite flying. The city host a kite festival but it's now only once a year instead of in the spring and fall. There is also a weather phenomena that surprises first time visitors. At the height of summer tourist season, temperatures in the Willamette Valley can climb above ninety degrees Fahrenheit. This brings the marine layer in and blankets the beach in a cold fog. People expecting sunny beach weather are often disappointed. It also has the advantage of studio like shadowless light.
These were taken with the M4-2, a newly acquired Zeiss 28 2.8 Biogon with a 022 yellow filter. Instead of the normal Tri-X these are on TMax 400 exposed at ISO 200 and developed in Adox XT-3 1:1 for nine minutes:
Here are a few from the second roll of TMax. On the first roll, I had a number of images that showed what looked like a sepia tone as if the antihalation backing on the TMax hadn't fully cleared. It was fresh fixer followed by a fifteen minute running water wash. NLP removed any tint and gave me a good positive. Both the edge markings and the entire second roll didn't exhibit any tint at all. Makes me love NLP even more. P.S. Both rolls were in the same tank and I had plenty of fixer.
Once again, Lincoln City, Oregon, M4-2, Xeiss 28 2.8 Biogon, 022 filter, TMY-2@ ISO 200, Adox XT-3 1:1
