Sam, playing his Ukulele on Waikiki...I am just learning this instrument and was impressed and inspired by Sam, a retired postal worker who spends time at the Ali Wai Canal and the boat club.
The big experiment. I decided to process my own negs which would allow me more flexibility and possibilities. I gathered a bunch of supplies at Pro Photo Connection in Irvine (I needed everything). Looked at a few youtubes and blogs of people developing and felt I was ready (after practicing reeling up 120 on a steel reel).
So today my girlfriend and I went to Orange, CA to eat at a Lebanese place. I took pictures along the way, all in all I spent maybe 45 min taking photos. I just wanted to get through a roll and process. I used Ilford FP4 because it's easiest to expose correctly with with my camera.
So I got home and reeled things up in the bag, poured in the D76 and followed the steps. The result? I'm really happy. 1: because things actually turned out, and 2: I was delighted with how my Hasselblad performed after disappointing results last week.

This is a photo of the Bere Ukes, the Bere Peninsula's premier ukelele band, taken recently, with only six current players missing.
This has nothing to do with Jack the Ripper - we just passed it on the tour and I thought it was fun.
New uke too, for hubby. The picture doesn't really do the instrument justice, it's gorgeous and has a lovely sound.
Post-treatment: slight contrast and brightness added.
This means, you can bring your own theme. Actually, you must have a theme, but you can choose!
