Photo notes to self:

1. Next time, don't shoot Ilford 3200 at 3200... try 1600 or maybe 2400 at most. Definite lack of shadow detail in yesterday's negs.

2. When shooting in a rainstorm and/or heavy cloud cover with very diffuse light, extend development time to boost almost nonexistent contrast.

3. Find some way to keep at least a small patch of cloth dry for wiping fog and rain drops from lens, viewfinder and eyeglasses.

Pretty much in slow motion mode today. Up too early and up too late yesterday, plus a continuation of the less than bright weather, means I still feel half asleep. Tried a nap to shake off the mind fog but city noises decided they didn't want to cooperate.
