Up a Lazy River
The Quarters (8x10 salt print positive)
Taken in New Orleans, Louisiana
This is my first Calotype negative and salt print positive combination that is worth showing after a steep learning curve. Many thanks to Wlodek (paperlink) for sending his instructions and several encouraging emails back in May--it has taken this long to reach this point!
Negative: Pelegry process with no whey. Borden and Riley marker paper. Developed in gallic acid. Waxed with some graphite pencil masking of the sky to lighten.
Positive: Salt print on Arches Platine 310g paper. Iodized (floated) with ammonium chloride/sodium citrate/gelatin.
