Using Ilford Delta 3200 Film in Snowy Conditions

I had a role of Ilford Delta 3200 sitting in the freezer and unfortunately I didn’t have any other black and white film for a trip up into Rocky Mountain National Park and during a snow storm. I decided to go for it. Since Ilford Delta 3200 is actually a ISO 1000 film, I decided to shoot this role at 1250, but still process the role at 3200. I had a 6 stop variable ND filter with me to help cut down some of the light in the bright scenes and so I could try to do some shallow depth of field work as well.

Snowy Morning in Denver

I ventured to Downtown Denver early yesterday morning. It had been snowing the night before and the forecast was for it to quite snowing at around sunrise. I thought it would be a good opportunity to do some more black and white work and also use a on of my rolls of Fujifilm Neopan Acros 100 35mm film. The last time I tried a roll it came back with no pictures for some strange reason.
