Ta v much! Glad you like it - I was thinking of it as a book cover myself (maybe should get myself an agent!) but yeah can see it in a vaguely Hipgnosis style..... right, better stop dreaming now. Cheers

Fantastic tones and contrast, it really is the best of b&w films.

Agreed, worth it though if you've got something worthwhile to photograph, unfortunately the majority of my stuff are snaps or camera tests.

Acros? In what format? I've found Acros to be one of the most reasonably priced B&W films from the major players (e.g., Fuji, Kodak, and Ilford) in 120 format. I bought heaps of it last year for £3 per roll and have never paid more than £4.

I've not bought much of it in 120 only what I need for (very) long exposures but I tend to favour FP4 or Pan F purely from what I've standardised on. But your right I don't think I paid any more than £4 which is about what I pay for Illford. In 4x5 it seems to get exponentially more expensive, about £30 for a box of 20 sheets and thats imported from Japan.

Have said that, I've just checked Maco and its only about £1.50 a sheet which is comparable with FP4, so I may be talking out my whatsits...
 
That's a bit gorgeous is that.
 
They are very impressive Shane.

I have a Nettar and I know what it takes to extract that level of quality from it.

Excellent work.
 
You're very welcome.

In fact, you might have inspired me to finish off the roll I currently have in it. Think I've got 9 shots left.

Now, did I wind on after the last shot or not? Hmmm...:)
 
^^^ WHS. A lovely, crisp shot with excellent lines.
