The film was developed properly this time; no clumsiness induced horrors. Pics shot on Kentmere 400, developed in Tmax, scanned on my Epson V300, minimal PP. SP1000, Meyer-Optik Oreston 50/1.8. Please opine on the film, developer, lens, etc. (No. 6 has been replaced with a better-cropped version.)

Film/lens look good, have to try that film. Like the bokeh in the flower shots.

Are these your own scans?

Thanks, Bill. Soooooooooo much better this time around.
I like that bokeh, too ...

Uh, Paul, did you do your own scans or not? The truth will set you free! Smile

If it was you, nice job!

Wow... bench with rocking-chair? Is that right name for that thing? Very Happy
Lovely shot!
...and of course good developing. Some samples are very good.

Oh yes, my scans on my dandy little Epson V300 ...

I would like to say - that beside some technical problems due to scanning or developing process - that the artistic design of your images and the expressiveness are better and better from film to film.

Some images here within this series are really great. (1, 6 & 7 for example)

Thank you, Rolf. Very Happy
I am learning to PP ever so slowly. It is physically difficult, for example, to brush out spots on scans because of hand tremors. On these pics, only the rake photo got a little spot work, and it took 6-7 tries to keep the tiny clicks in line.
Adjusting brightness, contrast and such are easy, but always are subjective judgment calls that can vary with me from day to day.

It would be interesting to see what you can do with one of these scans ...

Great set Paul! You have a lot of lawn work by the looks of it! Smile
Amazing improvement with the scanning, 100% better doing it yourself, well done!

Thank you, Peter.
No lawn work for me except for trimming around my cabin. I just have to contribute to the lawn tractor fuel fund. The big lawn and the docks and such are held in common. We all help one another ... Very Happy
