Love the shots, Aram. 2212 "floats my boat" too. But, like Alex, on my 
calibrated monitor the highlights appear as an odd grey tone... robbing the 
images of a wee bit of contrast.

As Ansel famously said:  "If the negative is the score, then the print is the 
performance."  I'm not sure Ansel would have accepted prints with your grey 
highlights.

Cheers!
David.
