Small pleasures

Scanned from a 8x10 print, sepia and selenium toned. I may or may not not be obvious in the scan, but the tonal separation in the highlights is the best I ever had; using a large 4x5 negative certainly helped, but it probably has a lot to do with my recent switch to HC-110 (dilution B, 6 minutes for this HP5+ sheet) and to the fact that I added some HC-110 to the paper developer bath as well (10 ml per litre; apparently, it lowers the threshold dor minimal exposure).Anyway, this is the third of a series of studio pictures sharing the same concept (I posted a "preview" Polaroid a few days ago).
