I think I might have misjudged Foma Retropan 320. I wanted to develop a roll yesterday and couldn't find any straight info on what the time for Rodinal 1+50 would be, one person says 11 min, another - 17 min. Official Foma spreadsheet doesn't recommend Rodinal for this film, probably because they advertise it as "fine grain". All results from this film I found through my online research were everything but fine grain. Anyway, I had no other choice but to throw the film in the usual 1+100 dilution and give it an hour to develop. It came out a bit foggy, the base is greyish, instead of clear and transparent. The real surprise came this morning, after scanning it with a my old dying Canon. The dark tones are to my liking, the black is rich and the grain is indeed retro. Only downside I find is the softness, but then again it's called Retropan 320 soft. It's probably not a good choice for portraits, although I gonna give that a try out of curiosity.
So very glad of the plant label!

Pigbag - Papa's got a brand new pigbag
An intense frolic of anther scratching ecstasy.
She spends a full minute on each flower, covering herself in pollen, then tidies it all to her corbiculae. Great to watch her through the lens between clicks. I will post some the pictures of her with loads of the big pollen grains on her over the next day or 2.

My plan for the day was to teach four staff basic EXCEL. One of the staff was then going to develop a spreadsheet that she would be using daily. For a variety of reasons, three of the staff were unable to make it. The one who I would still be going through this with is also a friend who has frequently met 'Kath'. I phoned her up first thing and told her there was a change of plan "my P.A. will be teaching you EXCEL". So this is how I looked while we were working together on her spreadsheet.

There is something a bit strange but pleasant about sitting comfortably while taking bee-on-flower macros. I am used to lying on the ground or being in uncomfortable stances trying to reach the shot.

A Photo from Day 6 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record but unfortunately I don't get any journeys on this day.
The Severn Valley Railway (SVR) runs trains along a 16 mile Heritage line from Kidderminster station to Bridgenorth station .Highly is one of the stations along the line and there is The Engine House Museum there.
The day I went during the sort of main summer holidays, there were 4 steam Locomotive running on various Steam Excursions where due to Covid19, Compartments were being sold to families and there were some tables for groups of 2 or 4 people but nothing really suitable for the solo traveler.
Here, near Highley Station, I got my last photo of this visit to the Severn Valley Railway which was of 1501 as it was approaching the Station.
1501 is a Hawksworth designed GWR "15xx Class" 0-6-0PT loco which was built at Swindon Works.

A Quick Trip to see the "Victor" and "Vulcan" together Event at North Tyneside Steam Railway - Stephenson Museum - I was lucky to get a lift to the museum while a friend had an abortive shopping trip (long queues) to a shopping outlet.
As Usual, the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
403 - "Victor" was Visiting from the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway and meeting up with 401 - "Vulcan", a Home Locomotive built by the same factory for the "Victor" and "Vulcan" together Event at North Tyneside Steam Railway - Stephenson Museum.
Here, 403 - "Victor" is hauling the train I am on into the Percy Main station and passing 401 - "Vulcan" on the run round loop and about to form a Double Header for the journey back up the line.

37259 - Broxbourne Junction Signalbox - morning - 10/12/79 (According to my notes [now digital on a spreadsheet] this was a ???? MO Special [now VSTP] from Stansted Mountfitchet Down Siding to Ripple Lane West Yd, which consisted of a short rake [about 10 TTAs] of discharged oil tanks, that had conveyed kerosene for Stansted Airport, before it's expansion & replacement by a pipeline).
The large yard to the right of the locomotive belonged to the CEGB Power Station at Rye House, which by 1989 had stopped receiving coal by rail & only occassionly received oil from the BP refinery at Thames Haven (I only ever signalled one & probably the last one into the site).
I bet there will be large galleries for the "Peak" on Saturday, although for me it will look far too clean, compared with those that were semi-regular on West Anglia in the 80's!!
We were small. We were tired. We were tired. We were happy.

A Photo from Day 9 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
Another Double Railway Day and I decided to go to the North Norfolk Railway (NNR) in the morning and I can move onto the Mid Norfolk Railway (MNR) in the afternoon. It is only about 50 minutes by car between the 2 railways.
When I arrived at Dereham Station on the Mid Norfolk Railway (MNR), there were 2 Locomotives operating.
Here, at Dereham Station, GWR 813 has kindly moved off to some sidings to allow BR Std. 4 Loco no. 80078 a Riddles designed and Brighton Works built 2-6-4T to do a run round the carriages after it has been on a round trip along the Heritage line and to prepare for the next trip. This was my last photo of the day before a long journey to an overnight in Doncaster and a visit to NYMR on the way home.

Showing pale cream pollen load.
This plant was buzzing with both honey bees and white tailed bumble bees on Thursday at Rowallane Gardens. Good to clock it as a good bee plant that i hadnt known about and to get to add a new entry to my Honey bees on named flowers set!

A Photo from Day 9 of a 10 day 9 night "Railway Tour" of 13 Museums and Heritage Railway Locations. The Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
Another Double Railway Day and I decided to go to the North Norfolk Railway (NNR) in the morning and I can move onto the Mid Norfolk Railway (MNR) in the afternoon. It is only about 50 minutes by car between the 2 railways.
When I arrived at Dereham Station on the Mid Norfolk Railway (MNR), there were 2 Locomotives operating.
Here, at Dereham Station, GWR 813 is in steam and moving up and down the station from time to time and is posing for Photographs with a few freight wagons.

She is one of mine I think. About 2 km from my house. Always great to see them out and about. The ivy at this roadside was bopping with hovers and bees. And today standing in front of a hive earlier the smell of the ivy was stunning - so strong and distinctive - immediately connects me to years past when it was less familiar. A sunny Saturday in September, windless and 17C.
Bright yellow pollen loads on display on this girl as she bops from flower to flower.
If you watch closely for a period of time and follow individual bees, it is very clear that some bees are selecting/visiting the flowers with anthers still on and collecting pollen. And that other bees are actively selecting flowers that the anthers have dropped off and are collecting nectar only. I much prefer to get pictures of the ones that are collecting pollen
Will eventually go on my Honey bees on named flowers set

petals grossly oversaturated but liked this anyway.
____________________________________
Edit>>December 1st 2018: - I have decided to pick this as best picture of year for me. Certainly not one of my more popular pictures. Not explored (I got more pictures explored this year than any previous year on Flickr). It is technically questionable for a couple of reasons. However still something I just really like about this one.
I have got into Honey bees on named flowers pictures last couple of years and have a very nerdy botanically sorted spreadsheet at:

Good view of full sized pollen load on this one - slightly pinky look to it I think.
In Rowallane bees were working this hard today, 12C, this is about 600m from the hives.

This week-end involved 2 Heritage Railways with the Main Aim was to get as many Steam Train Journeys to add to my Steam Powered Journeys Spreadsheet which is my modern "Trainspotting" record.
Here, after arriving at the Ecclesbourne Valley Railway (EVR) for their Steam in the Valley 21 Event and going on a journey behind Steam Locomotive "Henry Ellison" from Wirksworth Station on a train up the very steep 1 in 27 Ravenstor Incline, I went along the line to Duffield Station and back hauled by BR Std. 4 Tank 80080.
Here, Back at Wirksworth Station - after my second round trip and just before setting off to stay near Kings Lynn to go to the NNR on Sunday, I got my last photo of the "Steam in the Valley 21" Event and of the other main heritage line loco in use this day GWR 9466.
9466 was designed by Hawksworth as part of the "94xx Class" for the GWR which rather strangely was built at Robert Stephenson and Hawthorn Ltd at Darlington as a 0-6-0PT.

In the garden.
Gorse and dandelion are what my bees are on at present. I have 10 apple trees in flower in the garden and lots of crabapples in the hedges but hardly any bees visiting them. I also have a great bay leaf tree covered in flowers and thought it would be great for a bee on flower picture but the bees are just not interested - It is about 20 meters from the hives.
Most of my hives have dark bees but one strong hive has a lot of bees with orange bands so I am pretty sure this girl is from that hive.
I do have a lot of bee on dandelion pictures but this one may eventually go on my Honey bees on named flowers set
