Yikes!

just about missed a day!

i've been in the darkroom developing old Tri-X film (circa 2002, but shot in 2012) with really old film developer (several half empty bottles of dark brown FG-7 combined into one, expiration dates circa 2006-2011).

i hate to throw anything away... especially now that i can no longer purchase FG-7.

early reports are fairly flat negatives with some strange anomalies and artifacts that i should be able to tease into interesting prints.

i'll get back to you with some samples from these negs in the near future.

i love a challenge!
