I developed the film last night in my new JOBO with TmasRS developer.... shots are honestly a bit too hot for my taste, but the image quality is stupendous... sharp, contrasty ( aa bit too contrasty)... and nicely saurated..... The development used was 5 minutes at 75F with a dilution of 1:4. I will shoot for 1:9 and 11 minutes tomorrow.... that should retain all the good stuff, but cut the too high contrast..... The shot of the trip was a rather large dark brown bird that had found a pure white mouse. He got that mouse in his beak and was flipping it up.....and basically catching it ... showing his prize off to the assembled crowd... I shot off several frames, when suddenly the mouse went up and in.....no more mouse. 90 Skinny Emmarit....Neg is real nice.... Frank Filippone red735i@earthlink.net
