All,
Just looking for a little help on this. I had a few FP4+ 4x5 sheets to develop. They were of high contrast locations - Pikes Peak. I developed them in Pyrocat HD for 11 minutes at 68 degrees (my time/temp for low to normal contrast scenes). They held the highlights nicely (snow on mountains, clouds) but lack in shadow detail (distant pine trees). The exposure is spot on. What could I have done in development to gain more shadow detail while not blowing out the highlights?
FP4+ would not have been my choice for these shots but it was all I had loaded.
Thanks,
Ron
