Fomapan 100 in Microdol-X, Contax IIIa, Biogon

I like the tonality of this series, development was closer to ideal than with the Neopan roll I souped in the same tank at the same time. 18mins at 24C with 1:3 Microdol-X.

Tonality is good indeed, but maybe 20 photos of the same houses are a bit too many, don't you think?

Didn't occur to me to be honest, what attracted me was the boats and the unusually high spring tide. Also, I always intended to develop this roll in Microdol-X and one of the claimed properties of this developer is a broader tonal range and increased highlight detail Therefore, white houses with the sun low in the sky and shining directly on them struck me as a good test of highlight detail. This was more a test roll for the developer than an aesthetic exercise, sorry if the subject matter is a bit boring. 21 and 22 were a stop apart (21 was f16 1/100, 22 was f11 1/100) as I wanted to see what worked better in terms of rendering the highlights of the sky.
