A lot of detail has been lost in processing for the forum.

Hi Barry. I noticed in the 'round 100' thread the comment from Chisel that you found this one difficult to print.
You seem to have a great range of tones, and snappy contrast. I just wondered what problems you'd encountered, as the print above certainly looks good. Much better than I tend to get fom FP4.

Hi Barry,
I can imagine that it might have been difficult, but only by your comment. The print looks great, love especially the pidgeon on the right side.

Thanks Guys,

The boat was under cover on an overcast day. Difficult to bring out any detail in the darker area's of the print. The print is sharp but the scan is not, must try harder with my scans.

Yep - second what the others have said here. The print is lovely, great depth to it and certainly belies the difficulty you mentioned.
