Praktika L + 15-20yrs expired Kodak Gold 200 w/ 50mm / 58mm / 200mm and developed for 3:30 min in 6 months old C-41.
 
Nikon F5 with 50mm 1.8, Ilford HP5, just finished it today. I will take it to Southeastern Camera for standard processing. I have not taken the plunge to develop it myself yet.
 
Bronica SQ, Ultrafine Xtreme 100 developed for 15 minutes in Rodinal 1:100. Really nice grain. I'm going to enjoy this combination.
 
Pacemaker speed graphic 4x5, caltar n-ii 150 5.6, 2 sheets of hp5 one at 250iso and the other at 400iso. Pf130 1-10 75f 6:30 in trays. Baby belly pictures of my wife every 2 weeks. Will contact print soon.
 
Some classic New Town architecture in Edinburgh-Rolleicord, HP5+, ID-11 1+1. Looking forward to using the facilities at Stills again soonish!
 
Kalloflex
Ilford FP4+ (9 years expired) @100
Rodinal 1:50, 12:00 68F

A little undercooked - I probably could have gone another minute or two, but I don't have any more expired FP4+ so it's a bit of a non-issue.
 
Kodak Duo620.
Tri-X, expired 1/2007
DD-x (4+1). 8 min @ 68 degF.

all looked fine except the 4 frames where I used a red filter and miscalculated the filter factor. Doh...
 
Corfield Periflex, FP4 dated 2004, 3.5cm Elmar.
(and yes, that IS a cassette player in my car dashboard!)

Last camera I've used is my 1973 vintage Kiev 4M, with Jupiter-8 50 mm f/2 and Jupiter-12 35 mm f/2.8 (so far). Finished a roll of expired Costco branded Fuji Superia Xtra 400 the other day, haven't got it processed yet -- C-41chemicals on the way, bottles and other paraphernalia arrived today. Anything I print from this roll will have to be from scans, as my darkroom is still "coming soon" and RA-4 printing probably not all that soon. The last film I have prints from was the same film, shot as sprocket hole pano in my RB67 and mailed cross country; I had them print two of the nine 35x67 frames (prints were from their scans, I don't think anyone does optical prints at consumer prices any more).

You have my sympathy FWIW-it's all too easy to do that!
 
hand coated and store bought paper in a Kodak folder and cyclone 3, developer was a reversal ( not really ) results are in the media/gallery ...
 
Ilford HP5+ @ ei200 exposed in an Olympus OM1n with 50mm f1.8 and developed in Ilfosol 3 for 6 minutes @ 20°C (minimal agitation)

Good choice of subjects and well executed IMHO, John. Just waiting for the lockdown to be lifted so that I can get back to God's Country from my home in Tavistock, England.
I'm surprised that you found the Triumph Mayflower in what looks to be eminently restorable condition. For those not familiar with the model, it was said to have been a) designed by Triumph's apprentices and/or b) styled to look like a scaled-down Rolls Royce. Unsurprisingly, it was not a great success!

Hi Steve. Thanks for your kind words and for enlightening me on the provenance of the Triumph. It is (or was 2 years ago when I took that photo) just in a sleepy hollow near Warleggan on Bodmin Moor. The shot of my daughter was taken last week on the same roll. I have had a hiatus in my photography whilst bringing her up as my partner and I have reversed roles.
 
Argus Super Seventy-Five...exposed a 2.5x2.25" collodion wet plate in it.

I don't have a scan but its a bay water silver gelatin emulsion coated piece of tracing paper with a
wet photogram done with a UV box, "fixed" in a big pickle jar of super saturated salt water that has sitting in my darkroom since https://www.photrio.com/forum/threads/saltwater-as-fixer.34755/#post-502881. Andy posted this thread ... its a slug of salt in water boiled. :smile:. works pretty well !
