It seems to be a common problem with me to have an excess of out of date slide film. Sometimes, I will take the chance and try to process it in E6 and see if I can do some tweaking in post processing to get an image that is fairly neutral. While this generally works to some degree, I'd much rather shoot fresh (or recently expired) E6 film for conventional photography.
Which leaves me to use the building stockpile of 20-30 year old slide film for experimentation. And what would be easier than cross processing some of it in C-41 chemistry in the midst of a color negative run.
Such was what I did with a roll of "Ektachrome Pro Plus" that I had in my possession. Loading it up in my more recent variant of a Gevabox camera, I fired off 8 shots handily on a return trip home on a fairly sunny afternoon. This would be my first color photography in a Gevabox, and while I didn't expect a faithful rendition, I did look forward to seeing what it could manage.
In Mount Airy, MD, I took a snapshot of the former train depot with the caboose in the distance. Teh result was pretty decent for a fairly limited camera on an expired film with a narrow exposure latitude.
