A little sunshine to brighten an overcast and cold morning...
The family dog from about 1971 or 1972. Brandy was a character and 50 years later there's still a tiny hole in my heart at his loss.
I promised myself I would not put much time into sorting and mostly discarding my old 35mm B&W images. Yesterday I did the quick sort, then took a good look at the first roll. Since this was a developer test the G2G ratio was atrocious; 1 rhinestone and 34 of the stinky variety.
Shot on Ilford HP4 film, ASA-400, souped in Ethol UFG. Almost certainly the Nikor 50mm ƒ-2 lens.
NOTE: I liked UFG, but it was most effective when pushing high speed film by 1 or 2 stops. Diluted the grain was atrocious but full strength and replenished the grain was noticeably cleaner than D-76 or ID-11. When pushed the films were very thin and had to be printed on hard papers. An approach I liked but unfortunately this developer could be fine one day and totally dead three days later, so I fairly quickly abandoned it. Easy to do since I far preferred Kodaks 32 ASA Panatomic-X or Ilfords 50 ASA Pan-F to their faster sister films. Pan-X and Pan-F films worked well with more stable developers.

I had my husky in a similar situation at the end, 😢 very sad for them and for us.
Is it supposed to be low fidelity (by your own choice) or you didn't have better camera at that moment? Not judging, just asking
My favorite bird, looking forward to the return of the Ruby Throats to east central Illinois myself. Have even gotten to feed one of my little friends from my hand hope to do more of that by our humming bird garden my wife planted.
Beautiful shot. Where were you staying such that you could get a sunset shot?
... guess it's 'low fidelity' (to use your term) by choice ... I use the camera on an iPad Mini ..
