My kids just bought me a birthday present of set of film processing equipment to replace the stuff I put into landfill years ago thinking I'd never use it again, and I bought myself a brick of Tri-X and a Rolleicord.
I just like making large BW prints and sticking them on the wall. Doesn't matter if it's obsolete.
I suggest you dig out the Hasselblad, buy some BW film, and shoot some portraits of pretty people.
Sorry. Not heading into the darkroom anymore. I will shoot some black and white and I am making portraits of beautiful people. Hope they turn out as well as yours, and vice versa.
One of the many joys of your blog is that every so often we get to re-visit some of your eternally beautiful collaborators! Always a soothing moment. Thank you and your collaborators.

Keep swimming. These images are fantastic.
The light is better in your pool than in mine.
Get your film developed at Precision! Lucky to have such a place in town. Wish I did.

Do you miss the tonality of tri-X and 120 film for portraits or can digital pretty much duplicate that now?

The portrait of Belinda you posted on Instagram is one of the most beautiful you have shared with us.
Thank you, Eric. She is the most beautiful person I have ever met.
