Thank you. I was the only one shooting panoramic (I also used a Canon VI-L). The Big Four Bridge was an optional afternoon walk but only 3 of us, out of the 19 attending, braved the hot, humid afternoon temps.

From what I understand, it's not contact with the moss, but with the bugs that are often in it.

After my photography exhibit in May we repainted a few walls. Now I'm finally getting some prints back on the walls in a less crowded arrangement. One wall done, two more to go. #filmphotography #darkroomprints

After printing nothing but small 5 x 6 inch prints on RC paper for my Random Acts of Art project, it's nice to get back in the darkroom and print some new work. Today I thought I'd start with 14 x 5.5 inch panoramic prints from my Noblex on FB paper. #filmphotography #darkroom

I started on another round of "Random Acts of Art". So far 20 of 60 window mats cut. I also have more darkroom to make. Then after putting them together, I start leaving them in random locations for whoever finds them to enjoy or pass along to someone else. #filmphotography #randomactsofart

I had some mat board left over from framing prints for my exhibit so I put it to use mounting and matting 6, and framing 3 5.5x14 inch Noblex prints. I need to get some more glass to finish up. #believeinfilm #filmphotography #panoramicphotography

I've wanted to zine for a while and finally found a reason, my upcoming Exhibit at The Arts Center in Athens TN. The 56 page 7x7 inch booklet contains reproductions of the 51 (53 if you count my Colditz Cove Triptych as 3) prints in the exhibit. #filmphotography #photographyzine

Thanks Brian. I actually made this photo about 35 years ago. I've been getting ready for an exhibit and this will be included. Plus-X was my favorite back in the day.

I never had a kitchen darkroom, but I have had bathroom, closet, utility room, laundry room, and spare bedroom darkrooms. I didn't have a purpose built darkroom since we built our house 16 years ago.

I look forward to seeing it. If you can sometime, I'd really like to see a before and after toning comparison.

I hope ID-78 gives you results you like. Please let me know how it works for you.

The only thing I have in my notes is 35 8x10 or 18 11x14, but I don't know if that's for the 1 liter of stock or for each 250ml bottle. The most I ever print in one session is maybe the equivalent of 5-7 11x14 prints and have never had any issues.

Yes, that's the standard formula. Mine is a little different, I found a formula for a more concentrated stock solution with better shelf life. I mix up 1 liter and decant it into 4 250ml bottles. When it's time to print, I combine 1 bottle with 1500ml of distilled water. (1/2)

No toning needed. I do use ID-78, a home made version of Harmon Warm tone and Agfa Neutol WA developers. I've not used the Foma WTFB paper, what are you using for a developer?
