My first experiments with a low-contrast, home-made push developer.
The formula comes from a patent by Anneman that probably was a precursor to the now unobtainable Perfection XR-1 developer. Perfection XR-1 seems to have been based on POTA and was capable of pushing ultra-fine grain and microfilms by two stops while keeping grain small and contrast acceptable. In a discussion of the patent, Gainer suggested a variant that is a concentrate and that replaces the hydroquinone and sulphite in the original by ascorbic acid.
It is that concentrate that I have tried to recreate and test. My recipe was:
Dissolve in 100ml of hot triethanolamine
Phenidone 3.8g
Metol 0.6g
Ascorbic Acid 2.3g
Borax 1.9g
and allow to cool. The concentrate is a pale straw colour.
I convinced myself that a good starting point for a film like Bluefire Police film would be a dilution of 1+200 for 60 minutes at 20C stand developed. That's what I have done for the four images posted here.
This first image shows a scene as it came out of the scanner and, for comparison, the same after the contrast had been slightly reduced in Photoshop.
As a first attempt with the developer I'm pleased with it. Points worth noting I think are:
- minimal or no base fog, despite the 60 min stand
- a working temp of 20C, as opposed to Perfection XR-1 that typically had to be used at 30C or higher
- minimal grain: I can't see it at the scanning resolution I used (4800dpi on an Epson Perfection V700)
- stand processing, rather than frequent agitation
- about 2 stops push over the box speed, which for Bluefire must be about EI 20 or possibly less.
I also got a more moderate contrast using this Anneman-Gainer developer than I did using Bluefire's own, so I count that as a success. The results came out looking like Rollei Retro 80S when I develop it in Rodinal, but if anything finer-grained and with slightly less contrast.
This is obviously not the optimal dilution/timing/method for this developer, but I think it shows promise and it is very, very easy and cheap to make. It would be great if I could encourage anyone else to play with it.
I hope to expose some Rollei ATP 1.1 tomorrow, weather permitting, and try the same time and dilution on that.
Feel free to link to this post if you know any other discussion groups or websites where it might be of interest.
Zorki 1 with Jupiter-12
Bluefire Police film @ 80
Stand dev in Anneman-Gainer developer 1+200 for 60 mins, 30s initial inversions + 1 inversion @ 30mins.
ADDED: The ATP 1.1 needs something stronger that 1+200 / 60 mins. When I get some more I'll try 1+100 for the same time.

Adox Scala 50 film in négative processing:
After testing the high-resolution and ultra-fine gain film Adox HR-50 processed with the fine-grain developer Adox Atomal 49, I would like to compare with the Adox Scala 50 that likely the same formula but commercially intended to be processed with a reversal chemistry. I tried this chemistry past year but, unfortunately the bleaching bath was degraded and I obtained incompletely bleached positives that I reported here: flic.kr/s/aHBqjBCCha. The Scala 50 could be however processed as a normal negative using the same processing times and developer as recommended by Adox for HR-50.
For testing Scala 50 as a negative, I picked up for a second time my newly arrived exceptional French 35mm camera FOCA Universel RC (see below for details about this rare and fascinating camera), I went for photowalk at Port Rambaud, along.the Saône river bank, Lyon, France. The weather was very fair with gentle clouds in a nice blue Skye with a mild outdoor temperature (28°C).
I mounted on my FOCA the OPLAREX lens 1:1.9 f=5cm equipped with a yellow filter FOCA x2.5. The OPLAR /OPLAREX lenses for the FOCA’s only accept push-on filter (42.5mm in this specific case). A vintage Genaco cylindric stainless-steel shade hood conceived for a 5cm focal length was also used all along the session.
Expositions were determined for 32 ISO to compensate the absorption of the yellow filter (not the x2.5 coefficient due to the enhanced sensitivity of the film in the yellow). Metering was achieved using a Minolta Autometer III lightmeter fitted with a 10° finder for selective metering privileging the shadow areas, but too much to avoid high-lights saturation, or also in the incident-light mode with the integrating opal dome of the Autometer.
Most of the views were taken at 1/50s to 1/200s and f/5.6 to f/9 apertures.
Port Rambaud - La Confluence***, July 31, 2025
69002 Lyon
France
_____________________
*** Port Rambaud is a former river port in Lyon, on the Saône, located in the Confluence district at the end of the peninsula between the Saône and Rhône rivers up to the Pont de la Mulatière. The construction of the port was decided in 1909 but work was frozen during the First World War and only completed in 1926. Initially 500 m long, it was first extended in 1929 to the Pont de la Mulatière, reaching 1,000 m in 1953, allowing 16,000 m3 of hydrocarbons to be stored. From 1985, the activities of the Rambaud port were transferred to the new Édouard-Herriot port on the Rhône and the Rambaut port was closed in 1991. The old port became a concerted development zone to create the new "La Confluence" district where post-modernist architectural projects.
In 2014 was opened the Musée des Confluences (French pronunciation: [myze de kɔ̃flyɑ̃s]) a science centre and anthropology museum l ocated at the southern tip of the Presqu'île at the confluence of the Rhône and the Saône, adjacent to the A7 highway Paris-Marseille. The museum was designed in the deconstructivist architectural style, said to resemble a floating crystal cloud of stainless steel and glass, and was created by the Austrian firm Coop Himmelb(l)au.
______________________
After completion at view Nr. 38, the film was rewound normally and processed using 400 mL of stock solution of Adox Atomal 49 developer for 8min30 at 20°C.
Digitizing was made using a Sony A7 camera (ILCE-7, 24MP) fitted to a Minolta Auto Bellows III with the Minolta slide duplication accessory and Minolta Macro Bellow lens 1:3.5 f=50mm. The diffuse light source was a LED panel CineStill Cine-lite.
The RAW files obtained were inverted within the latest version available of Adobe Lightroom Classic (version 14.4) and edited to the final jpeg pictures without intermediate file. They are presented either as printer files with a frame or the full size JPEG's together with some documentary smartphone color pictures.
About the camera and its history :
Among the French 35mm camera produced by « Optique & Précision de Levallois S.A. » from 1945 to the middle of the 60’s, the FOCA Universel « RC » is likely the most captivating ever produced in France at that time.
The camera was the last development of the FOCA, sometime called the « French Leica » because the optical and mechanical precision matched and even surpassed the original thread-mount Leica. Far before the first Leica M (the M3 in 1954) O.P.L. developed a bayonet-mount FOCA in 1948 called the FOCA « Universel ». Seeing the incredible viewer and range finder of the Leica M that is likely the most sophisticated system even engineered, O.P.L. released lately a great improvement of the FOCA with a novel collimated, parallax auto-corrected, of a fully original and different design of the Leitz system.
The FOCA Universel RC It is a rare camera that only appears for time to time on the collector market, being only produced to a bit more than 2000 overall units in the years 1962 and 1963, just before O.P.L. decided to quit the camera production and returned to other instrumental optical production. O.P.L. soon merged with SOM Berthiot and today can be found still in the industrial filiation of SAFRAN group, the French leader company for designing and producing system for aerospace appliances. The plant where the FOCA's were produced still exists in an almost original form in Châteaudun, Eure-et-Loir, France.
I got my first FOCA URC unit two years ago (Sept. 2023, flic.kr/s/aHBqjAV6Dg) that is a standing and emotional piece of my small camera collection.
I got this one from an apparently ignored auction on the French eBay. We were only two biders in the last 5s and I won the auction not far away to the initial price. The camera was fully revised, with new shutter curtains, a new delayed shutter release mechanism. The serial number indicated a year-1962 production starting with 1.000.000, closed to my first FOCA URC. The camera works in every functions like on its Day-1! The camera came with a late version 1962 of the OPLAR 1:2.8 f=5cm standard collapsible lens of excellent quality, the FOCA UCR dedicated ever-ready leather bag with the original leather neck strap in good condition.
The original O.P.L. camera warranty and a registration postal card fortunately followed the life of the camera, indicating that this beautiful FOCA Universel RC was sold to its first owner on August 9, 1963 by the official FOCA dealer « ROYAL-PHOTO, Photo-Ciné-Magnétohone », 42, rue Vignon, Paris 9ème arrondissement, France, today a Weill fashion shop at the same address. The address of the owner also still exists with the original Parisian building in place, Boulevard Poniatwski, next to the Métro station « Porte de Charenton », Paris 12ème arrondissement.
The shown original FOCAL Universel RC user manual is the one that came with my other FOCA URC camera.
These information pushed me to question what were the news in France on this Friday, August 9, 1963… France was mainly on vacation, by an exceptional wet and fresh weather that wasted many French citizens holidays. The whole national radio information bulletin is still available online here :

The look inspector with almost all ios developer Malaysia components is following a Sketch version.
Zoom out and in keyboard shortcut is much more like Sketch than other Adobe software Option mouse scroll for XD, and command mouse scroll for Sketch.
The astonishing color picker magnifier that will get the colour associated with a pixel everywhere in your screen.
Dynamic Boolean operations for shapes that preserves the initial shapes despite adding them together or subtracting them, etc.
Why Choose Sketch?
Through its last couple of updates, Sketch has fixed and enhanced many facets of its very own consumer experience. Listed here are stuff that XD should atone for:
Layers. I have to begin with Layers. For many odd reason, Adobe made the decision to opt out layers panel around the launch of XD. It’s probably the most wanted feature that users requested in the XD team. Sketch layers are clever, making it simpler to export and take care of your elements of design.
Plugins. Probably the most effective features in Sketch may be the plugins, that is complemented by Sketch Toolbox. ios developer Malaysia
dramatically expands the abilities from the program itself and links it to every other software/platform. Zeplin.io may be used to automate styleguides and export assets from Sketch files, for instance.
Invision Craft. This can be a full tools carefully crafted by Invision for Sketch users. From duplicating happy to creating styles, these power tools take Sketch one stage further, specifically for prototyping and managing changes.
Sketch_collaborations
Invision Sync. Simply export your sketch artboards straight to Invision Sync. It'll seamlessly echo any changes done on Sketch for your live prototype. Can’t become more convenient.
Symbols. Relocating to design workflow, Sketch’s Symbol option saves considerable time and energy particularly if you’ve tried on the extender for a while now and begin to possess a library of your.Toolbar. Customizing choice for the very best banner toolbar is extremely handy. I question why XD does not have such like. It’s just intuitive.
Fill options. Another small but well-thought-out detail in Sketch may be the multiple fill/border/shadow effect. ios developer Malaysia
available in handy if you have a lower condition to have an asset, or just in the beginning when you're still tinkering with colors and effects.
Taken from a scan of an original photo I made before digital cameras freed photography from limited 24 and 36 exposure roles of film, boarding agents and their airport xray machines (which could wipe out a stellar photo essay in 5 seconds flat) and lost little canisters of film that somehow never made it out of the camera bag. Also lost, sadly, was the thrill of re-living your travels weeks after the trip when the photos came back from the developer and arranging photo albums in books with other momentos of the journey.

Animations in IOS developer offer functional context to users and provide developers with a simple way to bring designs to life. While Apple provides two common methods for animations, CAAnimations , they either sacrifice flexibility or create a lot of boilerplate code. That’s why at Savvy Apps we advocate learning the components and concepts of animations. This approach allows developers the freedom to find new ways to do animations. In this post, we define the components of an animation, as well as provide tips for creating and experimenting with interactive animations.
Dissecting an Animation
To understand how animations work you need to know the components of an IOS developer. These are the basic steps that you will need to take to create your own animation system.
Establish the Purpose of the Animation
This CatoAudio animation suggests there's more content users can interact with under the player overlay.
The first step in creating any animation is determining what it is you're looking to accomplish with your animation. Your animation can serve one or a number of purposes. Do you want it to make a certain flow or part of the app feel more natural? Do you want that little extra touch to provide delight for users? Animations can also serve a functional role in your app by providing important context for users. Arguably the most effective animations clue users in on what's happening in the app and what to do next.Take this audio player animation we created in CatoAudio for The Cato Institute. The animation of the player expanding up from the bottom to fill the screen helps the user understand that the player is the topmost view of the IOS developer. The animation suggests that the user can close the view and access additional content by dragging the player down to its previous position. This focus on providing contextual functionality with animations informed many of our navigation decisions in CatoAudio.
Black and white developers I use.
There are a lot of B&W developers, but I like using Blazinal (Rodinal equivalent in Canada), Flic Film Black/White & Green (a Canadian product from Alberta), and caffenol (represented here by instant coffee). I use these because they have long shelf lives, plus I can mix them as needed, so I find them super convenient.
A little Blazinal (Rodinal) goes a long way. I either do 1:25 dilution for short development times, or 1:100 for stand development, and it's consistent and reliable. If I have expired film, I know Blazinal will develop it! The particular bottle seen here was first opened in June 2021. It's almost finished, so I will need to pick-up a new bottle soon.
Flic Film Black/White & Green has a lovely gooey consistency that reminds me of sweet molasses, but don't eat it, please. The 1:49 ratio makes it very economical, and although developing times is much longer in comparison to Blazinal/Rodinal, so far grain has been quite fine, say for HP5, and nice contrast too. This photo comes from a roll of HP5 developed in this syrupy developer.
Finally, caffenol, has ingredients I can easily source from Amazon, or a drug store. Basically, it's instant coffee, vitamin C powder and washing soda.

We visited Picacho Peak on a wonderful balmy Sunday afternoon last weekend, and the desert was like a green carpet! What a gorgeous day and a good hike!
This image is part of my Arizona State Parks series. Some history of Pichaco Peak:
"Do you know the way to San Francisco?" In 1774, Picacho Pass was a campsite along the overland route from Sonora Mexico to the area that is now San Francisco, California. Juan Bautista de Anza, commander of Tubac Presidio at the time, headed this expedition.
In 1848, the Mormon Battalion constructed a wagon road through Picacho Pass, which was used by the 49-ers in the California Gold Rush.
The "Battle of Picacho Pass", The westernmost Union-Confederate battle of the Civil War, occurred here on April 15, 1862. This battle is reinacted every March at a Civil War gathering at Picacho Peak State Park.
Picacho Peak was formed by the errosion of a volcanic flow, but is not a volcano itself. The park has hiking trails through Sonoran Desert, up to it's precarious summit at 3,300 feet elevation. With good Fall and Winter rain, the area bursts with spring wildflowers.
Picacho Peak State Park was founded for the public to enjoy in 1966. Sadly, Due to the current Arizona state budget crisis, it will close in June, 2010.
