Thank you!

Suzanne, if I have one regret, it is that somwhere along the way on this trip, I decided to experiment and switched film/developer formulas a couple of times. The results are OK, but not as consistent. When I post the relevant images, I will note it...it will make an interesting discussion point.

Hi OMU, Development time is 15 mins at 20C. I invert for 4 times for 10 seconds at the start followed by one inversion every minute.

Thanks a lot.
I have settled to only two films; HP5+ and FP4+. To keep it simple.
And now I have the joy of experimenting with these to films.

Simple is good OMU. I am constantly in search of new aesthetics for different subjects, and that hurts me sometimes, because the experimentation ocaisionally does not work out. Rgds, Kal
