Dawid,

A roll shot and souped before work?  That's impressive.

I've been shooting b&w film for about a year now and am still very much
cutting my teeth.  It would greatly appreciate an example of the 'boring'
look of Delta 100 or any other T-grain film that you might have on hand.  I
am still trying to sort out film differences, and, while I've only shot
Delta 100 and Tmax a handful of times, they've done alright by me.  Of
course, I'm lazy and don't print.  ;)  Negs go straight to my Epson V500.

I've not used Fomapan, but know that it definitely has its fans.  My go-to
films so far have been FP4 and HP5.  I have a roll of Pan-F in the fridge,
waiting for inspiration and appropriate subject matter.
