Welcome to the Zone System for 35mm! In the future, you'll want to carry at
least three Olympus bodies with you for your black and white work for
appropriate exposure for the shadows and development for the highlights
(push, pull and normal), plus whatever bodies you'll need for your color
work. Of course, you'll need some extra lens and winders as well!

Thomas,
Basically, you overexposed a couple stops. St. Ansel would be proud of
you. Just reduce development about 20% to get the highlights about right.
The shadows will be very soft, probably too soft even for a #2 paper, but
maybe not. Printed on a harder paper they will probably be just about
right, one hopes, without too much grain. These could be the best BW
exposures you've ever made. Congratulations ;-)
Cheers,
Joel Wilcox
