Lith on Foma 133

A reprint of a shot from a while back (here), but in lith developer.  I haven't done much lith on the Foma 133 paper but on the basis of this result it's not as warm as their 131 paper, which is probably no bad thing. 

Ramore Head, Portrush, looking towards Benbane Head (Causeway territory).  The Skerries islands are on the left - they are a haven for seabirds in the summer - razorbills, cormorants and guillemots.

The sky got a little burn in but otherwise it's a straight print, overexposed by 3 stops in the darkroom, if I remember correctly.  It took about 5 minutes for an image to appear and then perhaps another 5 to reach this stage.  Developer (Fotospeed lith) was 15ml A + 485 water and 15ml B + 485 water, about 25 degrees.  That was the end of my bottles of Fotospeed lith, which is now discontinued, so I'll be going back to Moersch Easylith.
