A good job, you've done there Rob.

And I really like the contrast that you have managed to get with it.

As for me wondering what POTA was, and I'm assuming I wasn't the only one to wonder, it means, 'PHENIDONE EXTENDED RANGE DEVELOPER (POTA)'.

OR, on one post they say something different to that:

'First of all, what is POTA? According to The Film Developing Cookbook (Anchell & Troop, 1998, Focal Press, 165 pp. ISBN-13: 978-0-240-80277-0), POTA was developed by Martin Levy and the formula published in 1967. The acronym POTA stands for Photo-Optics Technical Area at the Ft. Monmouth military installation where Levy was employed.'
