(Hi, this is my first post, sorry for not to write before)
I have recently discover the awesome work of the photographer Fazal Sheikh:
http://www.fazalsheikh.org/

Surfing the net I only found very few information about his techique, aparently he uses a plaubel makina 67 and a rolleiflex cameras, but nothing about the kind of film and its peculiar development.

I have found that he scan the negatives and print them in hahnemuhle photorag paper. I have never seen such a beautiful scanned negatives, they totally seem to be chemical prints.

What do you think about?
Negative, developer, scanner process,...?

I think that has something to be with a low contrast developing and may be the film is kodak triX.
