Thinking About This Photograph

 This photograph was taken in Tsukiji, Chuo-ku, Tokyo.

 Since there are many old buildings in Tsukiji 6-chome and 7-chome, many buildings have been demolished and condominiums are being built on the site.

 This shooting location is one of them.

 I don’t think a big condominium will be built because it faces a narrow alley, but the “trace” that seems to be a house that was built before was left on the wall of the next building.

 In central Tokyo, there are no ordinances or customs that require a gap between buildings, so it is a “trace” of being built without gaps.

 I took a photograph of such an interesting landscape. 

 In addition, the developer used is “Sakagawa-type high-dilution, high-definition developer (solution B, sodium carbonate increase)“.

 With this shooting, the basic development data for the Rollei RETRO 80S has been almost finalized.

 Personally, I think it produces better tones than Rodinal developers.
