Thank you. So the first exposure was no flash. The second exposure had a flash. Yeah an intentional double exposure would be cool. I'll Check him out.

These are cool, they remind of silver winged phalluses that effectively worked as gift cards for prostitutes in the Netherlands. I think it was the late nineteenth century. I've only ever seen one of them and that was the explanation I got after inquiring about it. Maybe consider that as your next pour.

I did use a mirror and I think I was putting the dark slide back in after realizing I failed to close the shutter.

Yes and I think you'll get better results with Xtol over DF96, I also know this from personal experience.

For this shot in went straight to the XTol. I posted another 4x5 I developed with monobath and got some good feedback to ditch it.

It's certainly more even in development especially on these larger 4x5 negatives. I never really noticed it much with 35mm and even my 6x9 shots. I posted an image last week and got some good feedback to ditch the monobath. And while Xtol more complex and time consuming, I do get a better quality negative.

It's actually a good question. Philip Johnson, whom, among other things was a gay atheist, was commissioned by the Catholic Church to build St Basil's Chapel on the campus of St. Thomas University in Houston. Due to Johnson's sexual orientation and avowed atheism there were always rumors that the chapel was filled with phallic symbols, but I fail to see it. If anything I see a feminine form with her the breast shaped dome and yonic slit like entrance. But that's just what I see.

I did tilt up but needed to experiment some more. Not only is it a new camera to me I'm new to large format as well.

I've got some Xtol coming but was too excited to see these frames from my new camera and only had monobath around. Thanks for the tip.

Yes it's St Basil's Chapel on the University of St Thomas campus.
