Response to grain

from Mike Dixon (burmashave@compuserve.com)
Tom,
Yep, 80 degrees. With Xtol 1:2, most of my times work out to about 8 to 12 minutes depending on the film (about 20 minutes with D3200); I do lower the temp for Pan F+ because at 80, it's development time is a little too short for my taste. A side note (Wayne's studio comment brought this to mind): neither of these shots was done in a proper studio. The first was lit by standard, incandescent room lights as she was part of the way up the stairs (there was also a lamp right behind her head). The second was lit by a five-lamp "chandelier" in a conference room; she was sitting on the conference table (I was kneeling on it). Neither even involved a reflector.
