I was thinking no one else did. I mean with the latex gloves on and all, what else IS there to do?

LOL

HC-110 at the right dilution and high enough temps = very short developing times. No time to do much of anything.

(Unless you're Blansky)

Now after watching Les do his magic in the darkroom, I may go back and start printing B&W but I'll still have someone else develop the film.

Regards, Art.

Why? Developing your own film is the easiest step of B&W processing.

I enjoy listening to Dr. Laura as she tactlessly tears her immoral and pathetic listeners new a$$holes.

Exercise! 12 years ago I had a serious accident, and was in a wheel chair for 2 years. I fought my way out, but was really fat. Now I'm not fat offically not even overweight. So I do exercises that I learned inphysical therapy.

I challenge any of you to hike with me!

In the background I have either music (70's) or the TV since I use my kitchen sink for developing film. Forces me to keep the dishes washed ahead of processing.

I listen to music on the radio and ... forgive me! I sing along.

Please don't hurt me!

If you look at my darkroom portrait, you know I have my tunes going. I can just put the tank in front of the 18in subwoofer and let it do the agitation. I'm a white boy, dancing looks like a frog in a blender. I also play the game of, can I remember my name without pulling out my drivers liscence. Nice thing about stand developing is you can leave the darkroom for a little while.

That's the beauty of the darkroom, you can't tell you're going blind!

Talk radio..or music depending on the mood. Just something in the background. Most of the time I don't really pay attention to it.

dphill · May 17, 2006

I watch the little glowing dot move around the circle that has the little lines and big numbers on it waiting for it to go BZZZZZZZ.

I'm easily entertained I guess.

Of course! That's why there's a CD player in my darkroom.

Waiting for the buzz

That's odd. This is a real role model community, as no one is getting stoned in the darkroom...

Ronald Moravec · May 18, 2006

Play the dedicated stereo, classical or jazz. Works for prints or film developing.

SteveH · May 18, 2006

Thanks for the replies ! I guess thanks to the usual suspects I found this one of those questions that you'd 'rather not know the answer to' .

When agitating I stare at my timer,
When washing I read Nietzsche,

Now that's pretty hardcore! Do you read Satre before bed and Kant at the laundry?

terri · May 18, 2006

My digital timer was so boring to watch, I brought my gralab into the kitchen for film developing. It's very easy to zone out and stare at that thing in between inversions.

Oh, and I've been told I develop a protective stance near the sink, so no one dares do anything like dump a water glass while I'm developing.

Lee Shively · May 18, 2006

Nothing. I forget to agitate if I do anything other than develop the film. I'm hell at multi-tasking.

Black Dog · May 20, 2006

The reflex is a lonely child

Men?Multitasking? Think I've heard of that FOCL

Anyway 80s compilations are GR8 for stuff like washing up/devving film. You can't beat boogying a few hours away to Duran or Spandau Ballet etc. Ta-na na na , ta na na nana, the reflex is a lonely child..............................

athanasius80 · May 20, 2006

I try to develop film while listening to "Loveline" on the radio. Nothing encourages carefulness developing Efke 100 sheets like listening to other people's drug induced escapades.

What do you do to pass the time ?
