Love this...
The tonality is very well controlled.

Very nice tonality!

Thanks, that pic came out surprising well. Did a 12x16 print in the morning too, the actual print looks better than this though.

Excellent Work!!

KeeChoon, can you conduct a master class on the two bath developing? Thank you.

I have very good success using Acros with HC110 solution H. This one looks like another level up. :thumbsup:

Thanks. I still noob at the 2 bath development too. Still trying to figure out the right timings and develop a consistent method for the films I use. These 2 rolls I felt was slightly over developed as I was playing around with the timings. The scanned images from the rolls especially the figurines are rather like a raw file with details but flat and grey. They are easy to work on in PS and darkroom with just some adjustments in contrast and print times. I'll post some unedited raw outputs from the scanner later.

Ok, as mentioned, below are sample of the raw tiff files after scanning and the adjustment with just the curves layer in PS.
