Acadia National Park - More IR Experiments 3

I like the layers, water-ground-water-ground-clouds. Nice shot.

Good stuff. My 45A does have IR-tight bellows, so that's probably not it. You mention roll; was this a 6x7 back on the 4x5? It looks grainy even for 6x7.

Beautiful!

I agree, it's grainy, I'm not sure if I'm just bad at shooting IR shots, but I always seem to almost OVER expose them, or it feels this way, and then the grain looks very mucky, I've only used HC-110(B) which is the only reason I even bought that particular developer, I decided I would give it one more shot on normal film, and it did OK enough that I figured I'd finish off the bottle, I tend to like it for some things when Rodinal just isn't right, but I feel like all the IR images are grainy, and yes, 6x7 from a cambo back. Not sure what I'm doing wrong, my agitation is VERY gentile. I may just have a bad batch of IR film too...?But I think it's just over exposure and then having to pull it back, everyone says 5-6 stops but every time the negs look really dense.
