Notes from 9th Nov 2004
[posted at 11:00 GMT]    

Today morning at my daily bicycle ride to work I stooped at couple of places to shoot some picture with new 28/2.8 lens. It was bright cold blue sky morning with very sharp Sun. At certain moment I was passing by place where somebody is keeping his horse. I did almost whole roll on this beautiful animal with great back light and clouds coming from its nostrils. I hope it will turn right as I was using this yet untested and expired Maco 100 film. You say maybe risk, yes but when you mix old those wild things together maybe you are going to get some bonus :-)))) Let's see when I develop it. maybe tonight...

I have made little update to web page today. From top page you can see three most recent photographs published. At the bottom of the column which contains thumbnails of those three photographs was a link to galleries with name More. Now this link is replaced by link which allows you to see special gallery which contains twenty most recently published photographs on web site. So this is easier way to see what new was added. I hope this little thing will make some use for you who are checking from time to time what is new.

I have developed two rolls of MacoPhot UP 100plus and two rolls of Fuji Neopan 1600 tonight. Maco films looks good and seems that 12 month after expiration didn't have any effect. Neopan 1600 looks underexposed even I use longest time (15min) in Aculux 2. I believe Aculux 2 it is not the best developer for Neopan 1600. Maybe I try again Kodak Xtol as I still have one package.
