Looks very nice from here!  

Yes, contrast control in addition to the "look" or "tonality" (what's the
right word?) are what I like about what Rodinal does to FP4+. OTOH,
from that particular film, I'm going to see if I can get a fine grain thing
going and still have reliable contrast control - if only to keep my stupid
scanner happy!  :-)
