Circuit de Reims- Gueux. The haunting remains of the magnificent F1 racetrack on the outskirts of Reims photographed on Tasma KN-3 and printed on a mystery paper from the past. This stuff was so fogged that any attempt at a test strip in normal developer was useless, just horrible grey with faint images, however i decided it was worth a punt in lith developer and for me the results are worthwhile and quite fitting for the subject. That's the end of it though, no more of this paper left, a brief but glorious flrtation in my darkroom with a bottle of red and a soundtrack of Iggy Pop and Bowie.
