Cross processed flowers on the path

I got a lens off eBay that came with a job lot of other camera stuff, included was a Western style Dulux bulk loader that had some film in it, according to the label its Barfen colour slide 100 asa film with an expiry date of October 1977.

So I thought I would give it a go, I loaded up about 10 frames into a cassette and shot it in my Pentax Espio mini.

I was developing some Kodak vision 3 film with my Lab box in homemade ecn2 chemistry that is normally a 1 shot process but I saved the solutions and run this E6 film through it at the same times and temperatures I used for the kodak film.

I wasn't expecting much and I wasn't disappointed.

I scanned the pictures on my Epson V600 scanner and dragged what image I could out in Photoshop.

Not bad considering its 45 years old cross processed in completely the wrong chemicals and a total stab in the dark.

The joy of film photography.
