Modern Times?

    Tri-X 400, Ilfosol-S 1+9 at 20 degrees C. I'm still getting spotting with drying. I tried a little detergent in lieu of wetting agent didn't help much...

      Rinse with clean water after fixer, I used to dry negatives with a small hair dryer to prevent that water w/fixer calamitous spots....

      I like the Modern Times atmosphere!

      You should be getting alot more contrast with tri-x. seems a bit dull to me as well.

      Has much more grain than actual, real-life detail.

      I wouldn't say its a total waste. I think it works as a Windows desktop background.

      Thanks Wedge, you have to understand the Deleteme! group makes a bit of a sport of slating your pictures

      Very "Modern Times" (1-2-3)

      Very nice, like it a lot. I have the habit of 'reading' pictures from the foreground to the background - and from left to right. It's a cultural thing I guess, but I 'd have preferred the foreground sharp and the background bokefied. The medium contrast works fine for me.
