Another Throwback from Last Year, Late August 2024

 

This is one of the last rolls of pushed film from the backlog. I never pushed Kentmere 400, usually it's Kodak Tri-X and in the past few years Ilford's HP5. Kentmere 400 processed in Ilfotec HC developer is good for a one stop push. It was a very muggy late August day and my friend Dana was in town for dinner and we did a bit of a photo walk around the old part of Toronto. The visibility was almost November like at the tail end of Summer, flat grey light with high humidity. In the end by the time we got the C'Est What for dinner, the heavens opened up. 

I sat on this film for months along with three rolls of HP5 that needed push processing (just have one to go). When you get outside the standard developing times, you just, procrastinate. The backlog is almost gone now, and I feel lighter. 

Camera: Nikon FM2/T, Nikkor AIS 28 F2.8 lens. 

Film: Kentmere 400, pushed to 800 ISO, Ilfotec HC 1+31.
