Nice ones. I'd like to try some wet printing again (haven't done it since the 70's), but we just don't have the room. I develop my own 135 negs, but scanning is the only way I can print them .Guess I can post a few. These are some scans of prints I've done recently. Still learning my way around a dark room. Shot on Neopan 400 with an Olympus OM4ti.
I know what you mean about not having the space. The darkroom I'm using now closes fairly early so it's hard to get much time in on the weekdays and it's closed Sunday. I'm thinking of trying to make one in my apartment, but with only 200 square feet total it's going to be tough. Keeping an eye out for a decent used enlarger first.Nice ones.

Oh, gosh. I have no room to complain (so to speak) compared to you. We have a house, but I just can't figure out how to create a darkroom without making a real mess of our only darkroom-compatible bathroom. I also have so much various gear from various hobbies I wouldn't want to drive me wife right out of her mind with another collection of "stuff".I know what you mean about not having the space.

Wow, cha-ching! Awesome color!I can't even remember the last time I shot some images with this camera. A friend of mine is looking to buy a wide angle lens for his Hasselblad. He was leaning towards the 40mm. I suggested we go out for a "test run" so he could try my 50mm and 40mm lenses before putting down some serious cash. I pulled the 501CM out and it had an unfinshed roll of Velvia 100 in the magazine. Here's one of the images, scanned at fairly low res by the lab which developed the film. I shot the same sculpture with my Canon 1D2 and 17-40L lens.
I really hate to admit it....but the film looks much better (probably not obvious in this image). I'm looking forward to scanning these transparencies myself now.
I just wish film wasn't such a PIA. Good things are worth waiting for, right? Instant gratification...it's a double edged sword.
501CM and 60 CFi lens (finally got around to using this really sweet lens....thanks Fotografz! :salute

As usual, all are good, but this one is particularly well-seen, I think.
