It's a technique that has always appealed to the mad scientist part of me. I like the idea of using developers that give my photos a look that is different than everyone else's. Some of the non commercialy available ones are quite unique and wonderful. I do like Crawley's formulas-I'm a big fan of Delta 100 in FX-37. As I think you would say, it doesn't have the finest grain, but the tonality and acutance are terrific. Richard Wassserman
