First shot ... Saltair, Great Salt Lake Utah USA 85b Tungsten to daylight filter, UV blocking filter

After years of dreaming, I finally went color. Anyone can do C-41 or better yet, ECN2 in their kitchen. So I went with home mixed #C-22 to cross process #E4 #Ektachrome Slide Duplicate Film 5038 that is 43 years expired. After hours of working and waiting, the color came.... I am extremely happy with this exercise. This is the color I see the world in so I'm glad to finally be able to share it with the rest of the world! C-22 developer This is quoted in the reference as the official Kodak formula for C-22 developer. Water 800 ml Benzyl alcohol 5 ml Foamex 0.01ml (anti-foam agent) Calgon 2.5 g (sodium hexametaphosphate) Sodium sulfite 1.85g Sodium bromide 1.4 g Potassium iodide 0.5 mg (500 micrograms) Borax (decahydrate) 58.8 g Sodium hydroxide 12.5 g CD-3.5 g Water to make 1 l pH at 75F = 10.7 Develop the old Kodacolor (C-22 process) about 13 (14) minutes at 75F.

    @charliedontsurf i like this. Difficult to get the gold spires to come out. But the colors worked here. Those mysterious 5 blue fingers in the center of every frame. It's almost identical on every frame. Weird.
