It has a rich beauty to it.
Curt, I prefer the #11.
I agree, it snappier and visually brighter.

No the only PS was tone and slight levels adjust. I shot two image as a test one with yellow filter and one without, this is the one without. Unfortunately I messed up the processing of the other I never noticed that the drum wasn't sitting correctly and not rotating until the last 1min, stupidly I didn't think to keep developing I just finished it off and saw the result. I does look like the yellow filter drops the contrast some what but bit hard to tell with what I finished up with.
Its a very respectable looking print. I am about to push the "add to cart" button on some xray film. One of the things that was concerning me was the sky going away thing.
This is very encouraging.
Thanks for the info.
