Early in the trip, between Tonopah and Cedar City we stopped in Caliente, Nevada for a bite of lunch. This young man was "helping" his mother. <http://www.splitsecondfilms.com/2004-October/MeetChase.jpg> The only thing he lacked was a stuffed tiger and he'd be named Calvin. Shot with TriX @ 400. The strange grain comes from having the JOBO processor loose power in the middle of development, the power restored and the unit reset. So there's a quirky grain structure. Still, it sorta works. Processed in XTOL 1:3 for some time between 11 minutes and ???? with continuous agitation using 100ml of XTOL. (Like it matters given the curious circumstances.) I'd have followed Ted's advice and shot from the dark side but he was frozen for about 100 nanoseconds. Comments most welcome. Adam
