Beach, Part Kodak Ektar 100
Posted on 29th of April, 2011 by Minna : Darkroom
On Easter Sunday we stopped by another beach here in Oulu. The weather was perfect. The sun was shining and the sky was truly blue. The nature has not woken up properly just yet but it didn’t stop me from taking a few photos with my Yashica TLR. This time I had loaded the camera with Kodak Ektar 100 which I shot without any additional filters.
By the way, I have not ever gotten this bright and strong colors with Ektar before. If I can do it again, it’ll be my favorite color film this summer, without a doubt. The contrast is super! If you’re interested… I scanned the frames in Silverfast SE and didn’t use the Ektar specific Negafix profile. I used the other/standard profile and the results can be seen below.
Development notes: Kodak Ektar 100 was shot at box speed and developed with Rollei Digibase C-41 chemicals in 38°C. It was the roll #7 with the same batch of chemicals so the color developer time had to be extended to 3:30. Normal bleach 4:00, fix 5:00 and stab 1:30.
