Argh, Silver Halide film emulsions. I'm surprised I didn't get that
one... I spent most of last week mixing ID11 and Rapid Fixer. Good fun.
Until you forget to measure the temperature of the developer,
under-develop the film, and don't wash it enough in the stopbath to
remove the anti-halation dye. Then for bonus points I caught the film on
the worktop and ripped half the emulsion off.
ID11 and Delta400 are not forgiving. Not in the least. At least HP5 is a
bit more idiot-proof.
