I feel confident now with the spot meter, I might place darker Thai skin a bit lower. Seems were ready to go! Better go pack!

Final Tests
I developed the 4x5 zone metering test shots . This neg is a bit contrasty, will cut down a bit on the development on the Thai shots, this was 11 minutes 1/1 at 24C, I think I will cut down the Thai film to 9 minutes or less. Jock Sturges overexposes and under develops his film so I do not think it should be a problem.The highlighted leaves to the right were very bright during the shoot (the portrait was shot in a deep shaded area), so am not sure that could be helped, kinda like the effect.
