The First
This is the first medium format shot I’ve taken and developed myself. It’s a sucky shot but I don’t care because it’s a huge milestone for me to go through the full analogue process from metering, shooting and developing. The scanning is not optimal (really old Canon LIDE 70) but I think I’m going to enjoy this journey !
Oh, and the entire film development process was delivered to you online in real-time by myself and an entire cast of twitter friends including @dairequinlan, @da_kar, @david_ferrie, @sineadw, @yarrumk, @artyeva and some more who’ll kill me for not mentioning them. Hah, even @tedforbes got pulled in for gawd’s sake!

Nice one Stephen. Doesn’t sound like it was an easy task but it’s great that you have decided to try it out. I’ll keep checking in for future images.

Welcome into the word of smelly hands and dark sinks. It’ll become automatic procedure for you, so you’ll be writing novels whilst doing this

Nice work Stephen. Remember, beer and developer do not mix. When you going to do some colour stuff?
I only saw the twitter stuff after the fact. I literally laughed my ass off – spent the day in A’n'E. 8D
