Roller Town - Pushing Lomography 800CN to 3200

Selected images from an old school Roller Skating rink in Fresno, Ca. called Roller Town aka Cal Skate! I shot this with my Minolta X-570 & Lomography 800CN pushed to 3200! I had pushed 800CN before, so i knew what kind of tones to expect. When it came down to developing, I did a 10min pre-bath in Rodinal @ 68F. One slight swirl and let it sit. Then I processed the negatives at normal times w/ C41. The Rodinal takes care of the push processing so that i did not have to exhaust my C41 chems. I found this fantastic tip on Twitter from the #believeinfilm community! The images that you see here are for the most part untouched aside from dust removal and some contrast/brightness. I really like how 800CN pushes. I will have to order some more!

    @michaelfisher @schwarzesauge @fragakis_p - Thanks everyone!!! Let me know if there are any questions on the development of this roll... Lomo 800 is my favorite to push to 3200... :)

    Very appealing color tones indeed! Congrats on the POTD! What dilution did you use on rodinal? 1:100?

    @antmark - Thank you! Yes 1:100 I've done this pre-bath treatment several times at 68F and at 75F. I am continuing to experiment with the pre-bath for non-pushed film rolls. I am thinking this treatment may work great when the color chemicals start to exhaust. The pre-bath takes care most of that process and the c41 developer does the rest. Who knows, but something I'm willing to look at closer.
