Earlier today when I was developing the rolls of 120 Tri-X from the Holga, I was looking around for a spacer or something to keep the reels a bit snugger in the tank. To my surprise a 135 reel filled the gap. Then the idea of developing a roll of 35 at the same time. I had a roll of Tri-X that I used for boring pictures of a concrete project we were having done. The results were better than I expected. The reels didn't bang around and I got the 35 done sooner than expected!
Challenging myself to shoot at least 1 roll of film a month this year. Last month, I wanted to try some Harman Phoenix 200, and I figured "why not shoot the desert with it"? I think the film captures the feel of this area pretty well...

It's a slippery slope. You start with a roll a month, then it's one every two weeks. Next thing you know, you bought an Alden 74 and it's full of Kentmere 400. All of your favorite bookmarks are MPX, Cheaper than Dirt, Photo Warehouse, The Film Photography Project, plus Freestye and B&H just in case.
Using Phoenix in the desert. Great idea and nice images

I've just started shooting films and developed the films myself. What a learning curve! It's interesting and it taught me to take every shot slowly and carefully. Below are some shots of an old rail road. Taken with Olympus Om-2n and Olympus zuiko 35mm f2.8 [/url]
