[35mm B&W Rollei 400S +2] What went wrong?

( www.reddit.com )

What went wrong? I have a ruined film and I’m trying to figure out what went wrong. All photos are similar to those attached. Film is a rollei retro 400s, shot +2 (1600).

Focusing on B&W, how’s it going? I really love when there is strong contrast between the dark blacks and light whites, so any comments or suggestions on how to improve this, and on my composition, I would appreciate so much! submitted by /u/One-Opening8183

Overexposed my BW film. How to compensate when developing, and how bad is it?

( www.reddit.com )

Overexposed my BW film. How to compensate when developing, and how bad is it? Lesson learned today to always check the ISO setting when swapping film. I shot a roll of 400 ISO Ilford HP5 on aperture priority with the camera set to 50 ISO. Is it worth trying to develop it? I have Rodinal. It’s my first try developing BW film in 7 years after successfully doing color the other week. Would you recommend any specific timings…
