Argust 25th, 2025

Argust 25th was a nice day weather-wise, although it had a few schedule obstacles. Ye Olde Photographer loaded his C-3 with a 24-exposure roll of Ilford FP4 Plus and visited the town of Perkasie in Bucks County Pennsylvania. The name is derived from Lenape Indian words purported to mean "where the hickory nuts were cracked."

YOP checked out the rail station — a fine example of urban decay! This is on the former Bethlehem Branch of the Reading Railroad about forty miles from Philadelphia. Some things about the results are causing consideration of a return with medium format gear!

The roll was developed in Kodak HC110, Dilution H (1+63) for 15:00 at 69ºF.
(The images here are scanned from the negatives with a PrimeFilm XE.)

The "official" submissions from multiple participants will eventually be viewable via the Argus Collectors Group site.
