Spent 6 hours struggling with a fog on the plates (first pic). I initially thought it was over exposure. then a leaky plate holder, eventually I followed the advice of two online teachers (Luther and Dale) and switched out the vinegar developer to a straight Glacial Acid mix. That cured the issue. Some nice plates coming, happy now. Thanks L&D.
