Here's an old Tri-X shot from Mallorca while we're at it 
Shot with a Pentax Espio Mini if I remember correctly, developed in Diafine..

I shot a roll of Tri-X on the Mamiya NC1000. I haven't shot much Tri-X but the past couple of rolls no matter the developer does not inspire me. It works well on the old truck below but otherwise, meh.As a sidenote, this guy's comparison / review videos I've found rather helpful in this regard: The Naked Photographer
I can see how Tri-X may fail to look "exciting" or "inspiring".

I love Tri-X! Spent a better part of a year leaning how to use it with Rodinal. One of the main things I learned was to not over agitate. With Rodinal, I'll start with thirty seconds of constant, gentle agitation followed by three inversions every minute. I started doing the same with Film Photographt Project's D-76 clone and now with Adox XT-3.I received some good advice from a member on a different forum about exposing then developing Tri-X in Rodinal. First is the Rodinal speed tax. I was originally exposing Tri-X at box speed but it worked much better when it was shot at ISO 200. Consistently in development, time, temperature and agitation. Originally, I was using a 1:25 dilution but the negatives were a little thick. I changed to 1:50 and had a nice, easily scannable negative. The biggest change was agitation. I’ll start with thirty seconds of gentle agitation then invert the tank three times every minute.
When I moved to the D-76 clone, I followed the same process and now that I’m using Adox XT-3 (Xtol) it works for it, too.
Currently, I have a handful of emulations in the refrigerator, Pan F, FP-4, HP-5, some Acros II but mostly Tri-X. When the Ilford stock is gone, most likely I’ll just stay with Tri-X.
I’ve been using color film lately but should have some new Tri-X images by next week. Thanks for asking.

Thank you for elaborating, I appreciate it!
I'm fairly certain I'll be trying Rodinal at some point, I can see how it would suit certain scenarios really well..
..yet for now / for the coming months at least I really want to settle on a developer (and one kind of film) that kinda works well for all the things / really want to stick with a combination for a dozen rolls at least to get more of a grip on things.
The switching back-and-forth between emulsions in the past, and also having my stuff developed by either mediocre labs or just throwing everything in Diafine wasn't really fulfilling I realise now..
Looking forward to your shots, happy shooting ✌️

Well, maybe I'll Tri-Xtra hard next time with some Rodinal. Thanks for the tip.

Still it ended up on top of my list (actually shooting a roll of Delta 400, Hp5, T-Max 400 and Tri-X side by side right now; will develop them all the same and then hopefully be wiser / able to decide what to settle on : )
As always, it obviously depends on what mood you're going for, I'd say Tri-X just lends itself very much to an understated, "classic" vibe. That will be even more pronounced the less spectacular the light is.

Yes, both images were taken on the same walk, film, developer. I'm feeling as you are and starting to settle in to the type of film and developer that suits me. Thanks for the link to the Naked Photographer. Righ now, I'm tending toward films that are fine grained and developers more suited toward them. My recent test of Ferrania P30 and Orto developed in Ilford ID-11 gave me the kind of images I like although those films, at ISO 80 and 50 respectively, are better in well lit situations I guess.
In any case, I'm having a blast on this journey of experimentation. I have only starting doing my own developing for the past couple of months . . . both B&W and color. So, my technique and process are getting better each time. What I need now is a bit more consistency . . .

Time to post some pictures! I had the great idea to get early Christmas morning and head out with a roll of Fujicolor 400. The night before had been clear, not so much in the morning. Dark and rainy and even with 400 film and a 1.4 lens, barely enough light. Even better, I forgot about the ND2 filter.
