Many thanks! I always thought that Arista Premium 400 was rebranded Tri-X, so I shot it the same way when I planned to use Diafine as the developer. Technically, this exposure was not pushed; Diafine naturally gives a speed bump to many films, and I liked the look I got when exposing at 800. Some photographers use 1200 or even 1600 with Tri-X in Diafine, but I prefer 800. Alas, the camera and lens are long gone.This looks really good. I haven't seen too many images from Arista/Foma 400 pushed, but you certainly got nice results here.
And also, it was taken with a Pentax lens so of course it looks good.

I love this, beautiful! And... those colours, just lovely.
