Yep. Probably is. Test it with a short roll to be sure.

I shall stick my neck out and boldly suggest this is Kodak ColorPlus packaged and DX Coded as Kodacolor 100 and 200. I have often said ColorPlus looks lush when shot at 100 iso. Eastman Kodak don't need to make a fresh emulsion or break any exclusivity agreements with Alaris, Lomography or Fuji.

Once a busy petrol/gas station, it closed long ago and is now a burned out wreck.

Once upon a time Pro Image 100 and ColorPlus were not available in North America. Now that Kodak Alaris is owned by a US based venture capital fund, arrangements have been made between them for Eastman Kodak to once again have a slice of the stills pie. It makes sense for them both in today's market

Just discovered I have been using the wrong name for it.... It's Bac Mór not Bac Beag, that's the smaller isle just south of it and attached by a small spit of land that is only above the surface at low tide.

There's an International Rules match played between the AFL and the Irish Gaelic Football team. It's positively brutal at times!

Bac Beag - Dutchman's Cap

Bac Beag - also knows as Dutchman's Cap due to its resemblance to one.
