De a poco se alejan dos cables, siempre al lado de las huellas de una calle rural. - Little by little, two cables move away, always next to the wheel prints of a rural street.

At the start of the summer I bought some Adox Silvermax 100 film to try out. The plan was to shoot it quickly, develop it myself in the dedicated Silvermax developer, then scan it using my Plustek scanner. We all know what happens to the best laid plans. During the summer, due to family illness I had no time for photography at all so the film travelled north to Skye a few days ago where I quickly used it up. Unfortunately I completely forgot to bring all my developing gear so the film was sent to my usual lab to see what they could make of it.
Here are some of the results. Looking at the negatives I thought they looked quite contrasty and this was backed up when I started to work on the computer. In a lot of them the highlights were blown out. I'm sure my exposures were correct because I use a hand held meter so it must be a combination of what the lab used as a developer and the scanning process. I have read online that even using the Silvermax developer the film speed should more accurately be set at ISO 200 at least to avoid the highlights blocking up. When I get back down the road I'm going to try shooting at ISO 100, 200 and 400 and will develop it in the Silvermax developer following the manufacturers instructions to see what comes out.
These are all crops to a greater or lesser extent but at first glance the claims to be a fine grained film certainly stack up.

South porch with the West tower beyond. The tower's simple lines and uncomplicated adornments indicate this to be late C14th, reflecting the effect of the Black Death on the pool of skilled craftsmen needed to create the earlier more elaborate, decorated style.

A Detroit "Q" line light rail run makes it's way up Woodward Avenue approaching the Baltimore Avenue stop. I thought the line was most impressive. Downtown Detroit seems to have made quite a comeback. Photographed on August 07, 2018 with a Nikon F on Adox Silvermax 100.
