Toning experiment

I had overexposed this darkroom print so I might do as well some experimentation.

 

1) The print was bleached strongly, and redeveloped in expired Foma sepia.

2) After about 10 minutes there was only a half faint image, and I decided to replenish the Sepia B dilution with some fresh stuff.

3) To my surprise the toner now only reacted to the dark tones, where normally sepia reacts more to the mid tones and highlights. With this rather graphic image as a result.

 

It may well be this particular print. but nevertheless interesting enough to share.
