DPK on Film - Roll 3 (Ilford XP2 400)

For my third roll of film I picked up a roll of Ilford XP2 400. All of the research I did on Ilford suggested that this was a fairly forgiving roll of film to shoot as an intro to black and white. To be honest, I had a harder time getting the exposure right with this film than I did with the Kodak, but the grain and dust particles that I got in some of my pictures are a lot of fun. I shot most of the roll at the box speed of ISO 400 but I also over exposed a few shots at ISO 200. Again I used The Dark Room to develop my film, and I continue to be very happy with their service. As always, If anyone has any questions (or tips) I’d love to hear them!
