Honey-pot? I had to research the phrase, Dave. Nice work. I then realised that, I too have inadvertently ended up doing the same in a minor way. I have been in Franken, Bavaria for a few days. Our hosts, seeing me toting my camera, were beaming as they pointed out lots of picture postcard scenes.

#believeinfilm #filmphotography Another of Shrewsbury quarry park bandstand in August. Nikon FM2n. 35mm lens. FP4+. FX39 II.
A bandstand, complete with musicians, in a park setting. People sit on the grass, picnicking and listening. There are trees and sky behind.

I am pleased to see you here and photography ticking over, Dan. It is not a race! Enjoy Glacier. Is that the one near Montana / Can border? If so, I was there for a day or three in 1992 / 93. Nice nature!

#believeinfilm #filmphotography Bridgnorth. Nikon FM2n. 35mm lens. FP4+. FX39 II.
A footpath, running between older houses. They are of local sandstone, some white painted.
3 or 4 people are at the "vanishing point".

Yes ..... I would like to, Dave ..... but today I have done 8 hours help doing internal lining on the walls. I am now knackered! We are visiting Franken, Bavaria on Thurs for a 4 day visit, so I intend image making then. 🤞

Oh dear. Such a pity. That reminds me ....... I have a 50 sheet box of 12x16 Ilford Warmtone FB ..... bought "by accident" about 15 years ago. I wonder if that is still ok?

#believeinfilm #filmphotography I am in Germany .... and in 5 days I have only exposed 21 frames so far. I am currently helping our host (son) build his garden room. I suspect I will do more photography in the coming days. 😉
A picture of a cup of coffee and a camera sat on an outside café table. A tree and people, at another table, in the background.

Ugh .....bad luck, Lea. I hope you recover safely soon, without any bad knock on for your chronic stuff. Take care.

Yet another very interesting post, Dave. Despite my digital ignorance, this sounds rather appealing with its seemingly simple approach to things ...... or at least, that is what comes across from your text. Nice images .... but that is mostly down to you! 😊

#believeinfilm #filmphotography On the Shropshire Union canal. Nikon F60. 50mm lens. FP4+. FX39 II.
Lock gates and mechanisms on a narrow (English) canal.
There are flag stone paved surfaces either side .... and a small vegetable garden on the far bank.

??? I have no idea, Tom. So far, over 2 or 3 bottles used, I think I get through them at a rate of 6 - 9 months per bottle with no performance drop. I opened a new bottle about 6 weeks back, that had been unopened stock for nearly 2 years. Perfectly good.

#believeinfilm #filmphotography Interesting light at Moreton Corbet Castle ruins. Nikon FM2n. 35mm lens. FP4 +. FX39 II.
Ruins of a castle .... part of some tower. Strongish light giving some deep shadow.
Old stonework, a tree background left, some whispy clouds top.

Yes ..... I agree with Brian. Less grain, super smooth transitions between tones. I use it with HP5 (including pushed 1 or 2 stops) and FP4. I do not know about other films .... because I use virtually nothing else! Recent negs with it have printed very nicely.
