About the photo and the film:

The film came from a bulk loader marked Tri-x and with the last recorded date written on the side from 1989. It was from a former high school yearbook staff, stored in an unheated storage area for some time. The undeveloped film was more fucia than gray, so I suspected it was a different emulsion. Surprise! It is is Tmax-400 TMY, so pre 2007. Shot rated at 200, developed at 400 in Eco Pro developer. Negs were flat, and a bit fogged but still printable. Printed on old Ilford Multigrade RC I purchased in a lot from a former darkroom printer/student that let their darkroom stuff sit idle for a few years. Printed great with a #3 filter on my Omega D2. Developed in Eco-Pro developer. Shot with my 20+ year old Nikon FM2N and a Lensnaby Twist 60 Petzval lens wide open.
