Acros 100 in Caffenol-C-M for 12min @ 20C

This is what happens when your shutter gets stuck and you don´t know about it. Result is an EI of between 2 and 5 for a 100 film which can be rated at 200 in Caffenol.

Grain galore, dense negatives, verging on opaque. But I rather like the effect none the less, not a total loss.

Nice! These are really interesting.
If your scanner can't read the dense negatives, try printing them in a darkroom instead.
(And, that opera house in Oslo is spectacular!)
 
I agree that the grain does work for some subject material. Which is why I thought I'd share them with you. Thank you for your kind feedback.

Some of these negatives indeed do look more than OK. Strong contrast, yes. But I suspect will print OK. Will be picking up an enlarger later today, what remains is building the darkroom itself :wink:
