I have used your HP5+ film in a class I took at my high school. I had great results, but was interested in trying the FP4+. Recently I found a local darkroom and started working on my own. I developed a roll of FP4+, but I have had no luck printing with it. The negatives look decent to me... however they appear to be "double-sided". One side is lighter than the other, but I'm thinking this is the way the film is made.
Anyways, when I attempt to make a contact sheet, I just get the outline of the negatives on the paper. And when I attempt to make a print, the light becomes incredibly dull, even though is bright before the negative and carrier are in. Any suggestions as to what I'm doing wrong? The darkroom is in an art center and nobody there knows anything about it. Any help or advice would be appreciated. Thanks so mcuh for your time.
