Subject: [Leica] Another shot from the pyromaniac

Okay guys, there has to be some reason why people stopped using pyro and
went to D76. I find the results with pyro extremely smooth, rich, and
fine-grained. This is a shot similar to the one I posted yesterday.

This is the first time that I've actually become excited about a developer
(that's pretty pathetic if you think about it). I really like the results,
the film scans well, the developer lasts for years in partially-filled
bottles, it costs about US$.20 a roll for the developer (4ml of solution A
and 8ml of solution B), and it works well with Eastern European films that
cost about US$1.50 a roll. And it seems to be a very nice film for portraits
(smoooooth).

Alright, if I can't get y'all on the bandwagon, I'll just keep nagging you
until you convert. If I had Oprah's sofa here, I'd jump all over it. (my
apologies to those who don't know about Oprah's sofa).
