No not an earthquake although being quite a high risk area, we do get regular small tremors.
‘This is just one of the buildings that got wiped out in the Roya valley last October during the night of Storm Alex.
This particular one is located at Breil sur Roya ( where I now live hence the reason for mmy absence ).
Anyone interested in how that storm destroyed three valleys running parallel with each other down to the Mediterranean can google for additional info , however here is just one link

Storm Alex brings flooding and devastation to south-eastern France - in pictures

Flooding from record rains in a mountainous region of France and Italy has killed two people and left at least nine missing. Storm Alex ravaged villages around the city of Nice on the French Riviera, sweeping away roads and damaging homes. The storm moved across south-eastern France before...

I hope so too, as apparently they've cancelled plans for a remake of the TV series Catweazle! ;)

Joking aside, I wish Asha much happiness in his new home and hope the cats have settled in well too. (y)

I'd love to post the photo but the Forum is telling me that even a 460kb 6"x6" file is too big to upload. :mad:

Apologies for that. We had a diskspace scare, and had to temporarily fiddle with attachment sizes etc, until we resolved it. More space now purchased, and sizes reset to 500kb/1024px max
 
I reckon it will be a souping evening later as I have the film from the previous outing along with this exposure taken today on 10x8

There’s another to capture nearby if the light is right.4AF33CFC-24A1-4EB5-910B-1BB66D301B63.jpeg

The light wasn’t right….. too late in the day!

i still got a second exposure though , pretty much a documentary photo to show the river in its typical state alongside buildings that were completely submerged when storm Alex struck the valley last year.

Negs hung to dry( the second 10x8 is still washing).
The 5x4s from last week ( delta 100) looks tad cloudy for some reason.
Not the chems as the other begs are fine.
I think they’ll scan ok though…. Here’s hoping. CE7E65BA-3A91-49C2-AD69-31629ECBCEDD.jpeg

Took the whole plate for an outing on Friday to try and establish a good processing outcome for the 2009 Fomapan 100. The main lesson learned was that shooting into the light with an uncoated lens is a recipe for failure, regardless of how much effort you take to shield the lens. :rolleyes: :eggface:

Luckily enough, the second shot wasn't straight into the light so at least I got something.

Took the Broni out this week loaded with some Portra 400. Only shot 3 frames as the weather was a lot worse than the forecast. It'll be a while before I finish the roll I think.

This was the third attempt I aborted the first 2 because the rain was coming in from the front.

Hi Chris, ironic that you ask about me as having spent some time in the darkroom, I was about to post a result in this thread BUT it seems that uploading an image( iphone photo)is no longer possible unless the image is on a host site such as Flickr…. I don’t use any host site for my images!
Perhaps I’m mistaken ( I’d like to think so).

Ok scrap that , I’ve seen the attach files box at the bottom of the page!….duh!:facepalm:
