I was watching a video of Fred Picker taking photographs. He metered the scene and there was a 3 stop difference between high and low values, (zone 8 and 5 in this case) He was anticipating shooting it at 60th sec at F/22 which happened to be correct. Because of the low contrast range, he decided to shoot between F/32 and F/45 for 60th and give the negative N+ 1.5 development.
Why not shoot it at F/22 and give it N+ 1.5?
I am sure the answer is simple but I cannot figure it out.
