I got my Yashica Mat 124 back yesterday; the glow seems to be cured. It was very overcast today, so maybe not the perfect test but I'm pretty sure the cleaning of the optic worked. Also tried my hand at developing with real chemicals today instead of a monobath solution. It appears to have worked!

Also not sure how I feel about bw for fall images, but here we have it. I haven't worked up the nerve to try color processing yet, and I wanted quick results from the first roll back. Shot on Ilford HP5+

Truly lovely picture here mollyc! The contrast really works here, with the white leaves on the black asfalt...

Grandson visited for the past week, and of course there is fishing and the beach, but what else? The camera was a little large for his hands, but assisted with mixing chemicals (different photo), developing process and drum agitation, and the final result when dry. View attachment 2102301
Respect and cudos to you @tizeye for developing photos in 2022👍

Feels like this “handy-work” is almost extinct.
Suppose that due to the digital era no one is developing photos no more, not even professional photo store.
I think It’s only people that has photography as a main interest who are likely to do this.

There are lots of places to get film developed. In smaller areas you might have to send it out, but film is incredibly popular right now. I am actually picking a roll up and dropping another roll off today for my daughter. And I shot and developed a roll of bw yesterday myself.
