Amazing result! Fuji HRT Green is a high contrast film and the fire damaged tree is a high contrast subject against a hard blue sky. But all the tones stay remarkably coherent. Surely you must have been running Foma Speed 311 at its lowest contrast. I'd love to know how you did it; details, details.
