So what grade is this compared to Love of Stone at the risk of getting obsessed with the need for grade 5. This looks fine as well but may not be grade 5 or it may just be me becoming a lover of high grade prints or it may be as simple as concluding that some prints require high grade, even if this one isn't all the way to grade 5.

This was actually a Grade-3.5.
 
Thanks, just goes to show that you were right in your comment about the conditions surrounding the "Love of Stone" being a kind of exception to the rule in terms of correct printing grade. Both have sparkle and "bite" but at 1.5 grades difference

Oh yes, and don't get me wrong, I love grade 5. It's just that between raw material (stone) and bright light, the prints always tend to be a little too stark. I would like to find out if there is a way around the issue, because anything below grade 5 would "flatten" the scene too much.
