I like grain in my black and white photos, but it can be excessive on 35mm. I think the scanning of the negatives exaggerates the grain. I tried Ilford Delta 100 film, developed in Ilfotec DD-X. I used a Nikon FE2 camera with Nikon 24mm and 50mm, and Tokina 100mm macro lenses. I am very pleased with the results; very sharp and not excessive grain.

The bunker. I found this on the hillside in the olive groves.

Cacti
Clumps of this cacti are often found growing next to abandoned cortijos. I read somewhere that they were something to do with treating toilet sewage. I have no idea if that is correct or how it worked.

The abandoned cortijo
This cortijo is in exceptional condition. The building has been secured, and the area around it has been cleared. Water and power have also been connected to the site. It looks like someone is planning to restore this cortijo.
