I had a guy working for me, a student, who was Vietnamese. He had taken over his father's photo studio there, and had been a photographer. Mostly portraits, I think. It was very interesting. As part of his job, he had to check out equipment. I showed him the developing tanks. "What are these things?", he asked. Developing tanks. Blank look. So I asked him how he developed film. There was a long pipe with caps on both ends. With the lights out, you take off one cap, and compress the 35mm roll slightly to get it to feed strait into the pipe. Then you pour the developer in, and put on the other cap. I guess what you do then is a matter of personal style. Twirl? Shake? Invert?
