With the aid of a friend who is also a photographer I developed 3 rollls of film last night. 2 rolls of 35mm Tri X and 1 roll of 120 tmax 100. Easier than i expected. I also set up an enlarger and look forward to printing. Really exciting. I took a shot of the negatives on my light box and inverted using gimp to get a digital proof sheet.
I was blown away by the detail on my 120 negative shot with an Iskra, that is one sharp lens!

It's a great feeling, isn't it?
I still find developing quite relaxing and rewarding, even after doing it for about 10 years, as opposed to clicking and sliding in LR.

Very nice! Developing film was a childhood dream of mine, which I fulfilled a year ago, so I understand your thrill. Congratulations and enjoy!

just an idea: have a clear glass on top of your negatives and add some contrast, that´s all you need for perfect contacts.
