A very close friend decided to get into shooting film. So I convinced him to get a 35mm camera to shoot with and told him that if he went in 50-50 on chemistry that I would teach him how to develop his film. When I was shooting film last I was experimenting with pushing film so to pick up where I left off I decided to shoot a roll of Kodak TRI-X pan 400 pushed to 3200 which is about 3 stops. For this shoot I did an indoor shoot of my kid while my fiancé was helping to trans scribe several old books. During this he decided that he need to wear his grans reading glasses. I was able to capture the moment he was telling everyone why he needed to wear them. The camera I used is a Nikon n90s and most likely the 80-200 f2.8. For developing I used d76 stock sol. for 25min with normal times for stop fixer and wash. The contrast that comes from pushing is amazing and the grain of TRI-X shines as well soon I will push a roll of Illford HP5 400 and see how that looks but there might be more guessing for development times.
