Bryan,
Thanks. I agree that more light on the sign would have been better for the image. To be honest I was shocked at how well the Acros held any detail at all in the face of the sign. On the ground glass it looked like pure silhouette and that's what I was expecting. One of my favorite things about shooting at night (as I am learning) is the disparity between what you see and what the film sees. Sometimes this is a good thing and sometimes not.

I love this... makes me feel like I'm in high school again... I remember many a night walking home in conditions like this. Wanna trade? A 4x5 contact of this (or an 8x10) would be beautiful.

Richard,
I am very flattered, thank you. Unfortunately, my darkroom is disassembled and awaiting the time and money to be reborn as one half of the garage. In other words, I have no way to print it myself. If ever I am able to I will keep your kind offer in mind. Thank you.
Jonathan
EDIT: PM sent to you regarding an alternate trade idea.
