Rough Early Mid-Tones and Highlights



Can someone give me an explanation of why highlights and early mid-tones in
my cyanos (and other iron processes for that matter) are not as smooth as
the later mid-tones and shadows. It's not my negative, they're also rough on
my stouffer wedge too. 20, 30, 40 per cent are consistently mottled and
rough while 50 per cent onward are nice and smooth. I'm using 50:50 A 20%:B
10%. Thx.
