Francis, thanks for pointing me towards the APUG site. Actually, I was hoping to see negatives made of the same subject at the same time developed in both pyro and non pyro developers,merely to...

I totally agree,lessen and simplify. Francis any chance of uploading a couple of pics. I'm sure others would be interested in seeing the results.

Hey Steve , how about an issue of VC dedicated to pyro? Have articles on PMK,WD2D and pyrocatHD written by their inventors with images and then get Kirk to try all three, seeing how he is a pyro...

His photos have that edge a lot of landscapes lack- I guess you would call it the photograph as event. In Adams' best pictures it's this sense of event that sets them apart from other images,for...

Hey Bruce I went through the same thing too! I took my camera off in to the darkroom and behold my very own planetarium, alas none of the constellations looked familiar and so decide that I must have...

Wayne, I usually rate it at e.i.64 and process in rodinal at 1 to 50 for 8 mins at 68F. The results I get are great. Very sharp negs with lovely mid tones when used with FP4. Shoot some film and...

Chris, we all know how you feel! Those black spots on the prints are a real pain in the portfolio! Light impressions sells a set of pens for erase black spots from both rc and fibre-base prints...
