Pentax 120 SW, Expired and frozen Delta 100, Df96 developed. I mis-loaded the reel and the film was touching on a lot of the roll. Still learning I guess on my part.
It's a wall. I liked the sign and textures though.

These pano's are sick. Is the 35mm adapter trouble free?
Thanks!
Not exactly sure what you mean by trouble, but there haven't been any issues with functional things like fitment, scratches, film flatness, or accurate framing using the viewfinder mask. I use the eTone adapter kit, purchased on eBay.
The adapter does make loading/unloading a bit of a chore. The kit comes with a 35mm cartridge with a small bit of film left in it to use as a take up spool. I taped some more film to that in order for it to function as an initial take-up leader so I wouldn't waste film.
To load, you have to tape the fresh film leader to the take-up leader, retract the take-up leader into the cartridge of fresh film and then install both cartridges into the camera with the adapters. The cartridge adapters will create drag when the film is advanced if they are pushed onto the cartridge too tightly.
Unloading has to be done in a changing bag or darkroom. Open the back of the camera and remove both cartridges then rewind the film back into the cartridge manually using one of the cartridge adapters and finally, detach the taped leader.
On the Pentax 67, the film advance lever will not return to flush unless it travels its full length. Invariably when using the 35mm adapter kit the roll ends with the lever sticking out, making it more susceptible to damage. Not a big deal, just something that requires a little extra attention.
It didn't come with any instructions, but you have to use the 220 settings on your camera so you get enough frames on the counter and so the pressure plate is set to the right distance (since 35mm has no backing paper).
