Two memories come to mind,
1. Working with Scott Alder in 1985 developing 2415 in D11, in a tent in the Warrumbulgles NP, looking for a supernova.
2. Enlarging B&W images onto large (20x24 I think) using the bath tub as a developing tray.
"Only looked at a stack of old black/white photos with some visitors the other day and they couldn't believe that we did things like that 30 odd years ago. Couldn't get over how sharp and clear the images were with home made equipment and without automatic guiding
" Aster
Yep those were the days.
