This is my third setup for 8x10's. The first photo, my primary photo, returned no image, was fogged, didn't even have my image transposed over the fogging. Didn't know that, so didn't shoot a backup.
This is an experimental photo. I picked up a 5" x 6" Tiffen Pro Mist 2 filter that fits in my xPro holders, that is also big enough to simply be held in front of the lens as I did here.
This sheet of GP3 100 does have streaks. Not too terribly bad, but you can see horizontal streaks in the sky when you zoom in.
Interesting. Haven't made up my mind about whether I like it or not.

Shanghai GP3 100@50
Rodinal 1+50 per my cookbook
In September 2023 I purchased two 25 sheet boxes of 8x10 Shanghai GP3 100 from SHJC [Shanghai Jiancheng Technology Pty Ltd., the Official GP3 Store] that was delivered on October 2nd.
Their refund policy includes
1 A product is considered faulty if it does not work when first taken from its packaging or if it shows signs of failure within 14 days of delivery.
Well, my 8x10 shooting tempo is slow, and I didn't shoot any until well outside their 14 day window. Thankfully it wasn't a great photo that I found the emulsion is plagued with striations as seen again here in this sky and shown with greater contrast in the inset scan from another negative. Areas of the scene that have lots of texture masks the striations, so there might still be some limited utility for the remaining sheets. But for the most part, this $116 box of film is trash.
I've yet to shoot from the second box. But there is a good chance they made a run of bad film and the next box are the 25 sheets cut before or after the trash box.
This scene was selected for testing and training. I wasn't trying to be artistic at all.
I find that winter is really the time I get back into my Night Photography as the days are so short.

Shanghai GP3 developed in Rodinal 1:200 stand developed for 2 hours

Continuing the experimentation with HC-110 .... really liking the results as it seems to offer very nice shadow details and a nice transition of tones. Compared to Rodinal, which I have been experimenting with quite a bit, I would say that Rodinal tends to offer a more contrasty negative versus HC-110.
Anyone else with some thoughts / experience between these two developers ?

I don’t think this camera will have been used since the late 1950s/early 60s, it’s my mum’s.
The backing paper is slightly visible on some of the shots but I don't mind😊

Yep, that's the moon in the upper left corner of the photo - you can hardly see it. The rest is the usual scene at Zabriskie Point, Death Valley National Park that has been photographed millions of times. This photo is from my "cliche' tourist photos taken at tourist spots taken with mediocre tourist cameras that were made when I was a child" series.
Those are manmade trails on the ridges in the foreground, so in the purest form of the definition, this is not a landscape photo; hence my calling it a tourist photo of the moon.

I put this photo in the category of 'It's so bad it's good." No, that is not bad development making the sky look like that, that is diffuse wildfire smoke from the over 370,000 acre Creek Fire burning in the Sierra Nevada mountains of California doing weird things to the light. This photo is from my "cliche' tourist photos taken at tourist spots taken with mediocre tourist cameras that were made when I was a child" series. The location is Zabriskie Point, Death Valley National Park where millions of photos have been taken by the millions who have visited this location, and as such it is nearly impossible to do something original, unique, artistic or special. But I think that this photo, by being so flawed, is unique and that makes it special.

They’re more orange than red, and the compliment of orange is blue - so I picked up a 52mm Tiffen deep blue 47 filter. It was the least expensive 47 I could find.
This was a demonstration/test of the Tiffen deep blue 47 filter with sandstone formations that have red/orange accents. I like it. I got mixed results with the red-blind ortho film. The x-ray film has a wonky contrast curve that doesn’t have pictorial merit. I didn’t bother to publish that result on Flickr. Ilford’s Ortho Plus looks decent enough, but I don’t have any in sheet film, nor am likely to ever since it is so pricey, so that was just an academic exercise. Kodak's 2422 has promise, but I'm size limited by my 5" wide roll. I’m still testing other ortho film with the red/orange rocks.
Normally I wouldn’t use a sheet of 8x10 for a test, but this is that defective/streaky Shanghai GP3 100. Still, as previously mentioned, the streaks are not noticeable where there is a lot of texture. It can still have utility so long as the composition doesn’t have any negative space.
I adjusted exposure 2 ⅓ stop per Tiffen’s guidance; however, it should be noted that Kodak recommends 2 ⅔ stops adjustment for 400TX and 320TXP; 3 stops for TMX; and 3 ⅓ stops for TMY. ilford recommends 3 stops adjustment for HP5 plus. I couldn’t find any other deep blue 47 filter exposure adjustment recommendations for other films. In this instance, the 2 ⅓ stop appears to be spot on.

Rodinal 1:50 for 9 minutes @ 20°C
Some front rise combined with front forward tilt resulted in vignetting in the sky. Really not all that bad, and could easily be digitally edited out. Good to know that the limits of the lens were approached, but not exceeded.
This was shot the weekend after Gillian’s in Ocean City, NJ, shut down for good. It was sold to a developer who wants to build a high rise hotel. They had already started dismantling the place when I shot this; the posts here used to have globes on top of them. Hasselblad 500cm, Shanghai GP3 100 (220), Rodinal 1:50.

Is there such a thing as Street Photography at Badwater Basin in Death Valley National Park? If so, this is what it might look like.

Wetting agent is destroying my processing. But I am learning everyday. Need to do wetting agent on another tray and not in the tank. Next question, how do I bloody get rid of this wetting agent in the tank? Rinse it in soap?
