No, she's not that comfortable yet

I now have a rigid splint while the swelling goes down. I will take it off a few hrs daily for home PT along with pro PT. While I don't want to rush into surgery I'm fairly confident it will be needed so I'm just delaying things. At least I got the OK to trail run & lift again. That's super cool

OK, R hand middle finger update because I know everyone is interested πŸ˜‰. Met with the hand surgeon yesterday as a followup to getting the surgically mounted fixator removed. He's recommended delaying surgery to fix the flexor tendon sheath to see if the tendon stays in place without another surgery

So is this truly a "bag of dicks"? Asking for a friend

I also think they are trying different emulsions to see if any might be a niche product. However I’m have no clue if creating specialty films messed with normal production or if these Harman color films are made on a small call coater

Hey, I don’t have β€œthat” much film. Ok, maybe I do πŸ˜„

I’m not a film purist so I’m cool with companies trying niche emulsions. Just like KONO doing preexposed films. They can create some wild photos. I say the more film choices the better πŸ˜‰

That’s correct. Redscaled film is the normal layering reversed (turned over). If that style is needed (ie post apocalyptic look) then it can be DIY’d or purchased (Harman Red). Blue scaled is a change in the layering. Not sure what would happen if blue scaled was flipped but it’s worth a try πŸ˜€

I personally am not a color shift guy (I do like the occasional or exposed film however) but I’ve seen some people use these types of unusual films & create some out of this world looking shots that are very cool. I love to think that Harman has just told some engineers to try different things!

I remember in the last few years of my corporate career when things got crazy & hectic I would often try subtly subversive things to show my disfavor. Later I came to realize others were just trying to do their job & my actions were just making it difficult. It’s a fine balance honestly
