HI Mike,

I have to test your Howtek scanning technique - all I know you have great
prints!

Up until now I've been scanning and printing my legacy film - which I've
been having a blast doing. So I have not shot B+W in a while and I'm moving
up to 4x5 and really not set on any film/developer combo yet so I'm
intrigued with your use of Pyro. Would you mind briefly going over your
film/developer technique? You use T-Max and PMK as I remember from a
previous post. Do you tray process or Jobo?

Just like to mention to other readers that Mike is a very generous person. A
few months ago I spent much time with him on the phone talking about buying
used Howtek scanners. That conversation helped considerably with my recent
Howtek purchase.

Best Regards,

John V.
