Imitation Lith

March 3, 2022

Nikon FM, 35mm Nikkor

Ilford Delta 100, Rodinal 1:50 9:00

Inkjet print 5 x 7 inches on Inkpress Warmtone Baryta

 

This was an experimental attempt to make a lith print look-alike using Photoshop Elements with Silver Efex Pro software. The tones were as close a match as I could make to a lith print from 2017. I made a sort of pretzel out of the film curve to simulate some infectious development, added a dollop of hard edged graininess and printed this result which turned out better than I'd anticipated. It's not darkroom work, but at least it originated on film.
