Another month passed, and another photo of the month to publish. I'm starting to get the hang of sharing a photo a month. This month sure was easier than last time.
This time, I got a frame I tried to take a few times until the right conditions came together. The right weather, the right sky, and not too much foot traffic cause distractions.
I wanted the person in the photo to wear something light to contrast against the darker tones of the bridge - I cheated and asked for help, so the person in the shot was placed.

I did switch form ATOMAL to XT-3 to try how replenishment affects development and if I can save some waste by using that process.

I have been taking quite a few photos over the last year and a bit, some good, many bad. It is pretty easy for me to take, develop, scan, and archive my photos, it's a process, and I'm pretty good at following procedures. Sharing my work, not so much. None of the shots are perfect or “good enough” for the (perhaps much too high) standard I hold myself to, so I tend to take them, file them away and move on.
