Beautiful, I wish I had taken that photo! I might have to try Fuji Acros.

Good Evening,

My kind of photo! Looks as if Acros has come through again.

thanks all for the kind comments. I normally use FP4, but whenever I'm faced with a long exposure that will not be improved by the added time for reciprocity, I reach for the Acros.

Dan, this is great. How do you dilute your dixactol. The highlight control seems amazing and I have to try this combination.

Regards,
John

John: thanks! I use 1.5 mil A to 10.5 ml B to 450 ml distilled water. I use Thornton's recommended partial stand development: gently agitate for the first minute, then 2 gentle agitations every 2 minutes, then dump. It does seem to tame the highlights well. I've also begun stopping development with water and using TF4 fixer. Happy Thanksgiving!

Nice one, Dan. The bridge looks vibrant, even in the absence of traffic and people. Is this the consequence of a very long exposure?

All the best,
Daniel
