   Excellent stuff , definitely one thing I love about film, the ability to satisfy that new gear feeling and only spend a few £ , nice shots too.

   Last weekend I was using up shots on 3 35mm cameras ‘abandoned’ when I was taken ill about 4 years ago. These pix inspire me to do the same with a Nettar and Super Ikonta which suffered the same.
   I know your location(s) well. Your shots from the old folder suit the subjects well. Love them!
   How are you developing? I usually favour stand development in Rodinal but I’ll have to push one of the 35mm films as when I unloaded the film it was not HP5 or Tri X as I thought but FP4!

      I’m glad you are inspired, it’s a lovely feeling putting these old cameras back to use especially when you see them negatives come out!
      I’m developing at home using Rodinal for 6 minutes at 20 degrees c. Agitation at the start for 30 seconds, then for 10 seconds every minute. I’m using Ilford stop, then Ilford fix. Finished off with Kodak Photo-Flo.

   Thanks Graham. I’m with you; a unique feeling every time you open the tank and see the negs and so easy to do with b&w.
