Finally, a picture with real blacks, whites, sharpness. Just needs James Dean and Marilyn Monroe sitting at a table having a cup a joe.
 
This composition works. Very well printed.
 
Hi Bob, this is another picture with loads of atmosphere, if Marilyn and Jimmy couldn't make it what about Bogart and Bacal or some an old guy mopping the floor with a cigarette hanging from his lip.
 
"Nice print and so glad someone else uses PXP, to bad we don't have it in sheet film anymore.", photomc.

Yes, it is. I've tried FP4 but my results have not been as satisfying. I have always distained Tmax as not having "heart" or "soul" or something... but under today's markets, maybe I should tri again. (I'm going to leave that typo - it is really Freudian!)
