I've seen you with nothing but a Noctilux (and clothes) did you use > JUST the Noct for these 207 rolls or a mix of lenses?<<< Hi Mark, No I used the Noctilux, 35 Summilux, 21 CV f.4.0 and the 90 Summicron f 2.0, all on M7's. The Tri-x was rated at 800 and souped in XTOL 1:1 @ 75 for 8 mins. Agitation the first 30 seconds and three inversions each 30 seconds after until completed time. Because I normally shoot both R8 and M7's at the same time and for whatever reason I didn't and used M only. I feel by looking at the negs quickly, that is until I see the contacts, suspect many "of what I was motivated by" situations will be lost due to the M only camera and the 90. It just didn't reach in for those intimate moments I'd have hopefully captured with the R8 and a 100 or 180mm lens. Don't ask why, as I really don't have a common sense answer that I changed my shooting style. Hopefully my stepping forward and closer to the subject I may have saved the moment as seen. However, I doubt it! :-( Damn and I have no logical common sense experienced reason why I didn't work the 4 cameras each time. Oh well, editing will tell the truth. ted Samples from the Women in Medicine project: http://www.sandycarterphotography.com/WIMcollagePage.htm - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
