Really wish I could get my HP5+ to look like that! You have the magical secret!

HP5 really sings in staining developers.

What's 100ARC?

What's the sunny 11 rule? Why not 16?

Acros. But that should be 100ACR. My mistake.

Because, the Sunny 16 rule is for midday hours in the summer and a clear sky. Here I'm at latitude N45.5°, late afternoon, October and a hazy sky

Edit: Also, the Sunny 16 Rule tends to give me deeper shadows as in this example. When I want to favor the shadows, the sunny 11 seems to work better naturally.

Gotcha, makes sense.

I always thought the sunny 16 was created before the ASA standard changed (doubled) so it needed adjustment anyway... Or was that thought up after the film speed standard had already changed?

Good shot.

Shooting at 50 and dev normal?

Thanks. No, I cut the normal development time by nearly 1/2. It gives me both finer grain and compress the highlights. My old Rolliecord has an exposure table on a placard on the back. It's basically is the Sunny 11 Rule with season adjustments given.
