Just a quick phone snap: will redo this post with a properly digitised image of the print when it's properly dry.

Print: 26th March 2022 / 22ºC / 43% RH

10x8 contact print from Ilford FP4+ negative, trimmed slightly, on 14x11 Bergger Cot320

3mm Fotospeed sensitiver, 1 drop of tween20 solution (mix of 1 drop and 5 drops distilled water)

Paper dried 1hr5mins, no prehumidification

8’30” daylight exposure in full sun, 1:35pm

5mins wash in 1.5l distilled water with squeeze of lemon juice

5mins wash in 1.5l tap water

3mins fix in hypo

Now drying flat. Will expect significant dry-down and quite a bit of loss of tone. But ought to be great when finished. Will digitise properly towards end of next week when flat and properly dry.
