To Whom It May Concern:

I've been kindof hooked on Neopan 1600 in Xtol 1:2; 2 of those shots  
I posted last week were shot with this combination.  This one was  
obviously shot in pretty harsh light:

And this one's a crop (in smoother light:)

(Actually, I had an amusing realization about this one which I'll  
address in another post...)

My Nikon scanner is famously merciless about grain, so what you're  
seeing here is a worst-case emphasis in that regard.  But the basic  
tonality and dynamic range really work for me.
