I definitely keep being more impressed the more I look at this one, especially since it seems to be a scene where contrast could get on the wild-and-wooly side. Did you do much special with the exposure/development?Quote:

Although a lot of people would have just done N, I gave it N-1 development, which for me is Pyrocat 1:1:100 for 9 minutes with 15 seconds agitation at first and 10 seconds every minute, hand inversions in a JOBO tank.Quote:

Hi Dave
I know this wood fairly well, it's approx 3 miles from me, you've made a very interesting image on what was clearly yet another grey Middle England day...............

Overall v pleased with both. I actually underdeveloped both since the temperature was lower than I'd planned for, but knew they'd be fine for a scan.
