One of my favourite toner combinations for silver gelatine prints is thiourea (MT3 Vario) followed by selenium (MT1). With the new MT17 selenium toner, similar results are now possible with Kallitypes.

It used to be a pub. The Sun Inn offered everything the traveller needed including accommodation and a beer garden behind the building. These days, pubs are being converted into residential homes and developers make sure that the yard behind is turned into accommodation too, rental or other.

Catecholentwickler haben den Nachteil, daß sie als giftig eingestuft sind und als Warnhinweis auf der Flasche ein Totenkopf-Piktogram aufweisen müssen. Auch das Hydrochinon der Lithentwickler ist als gesundheitsschädlich eingestuft. Bei Konzentraten besteht für Anwender allerdings nur eine Gefahr, wenn man das Zeug schluckt oder darin badet. Es macht also eigentlich keinen Sinn, das Catechol aus dem Zweitentwickler nach Lith zu verbannen. Ein Austausch gegen eine ungefährliche Substanz ist möglich, aber nicht ökonomisch. Der Ersatzstoff ist erheblich teurer, im Grunde also eine nutzlose Spielerei. Ein erster Versuch zeigt auch eine etwas kontrastreichere Wirkung, was sich aber noch ändern ließe.

Catechol developers have the disadvantage that they are classified as toxic and must have a skull and crossbones pictogram on the bottle as a warning. The hydroquinone in lith developers is also classified as harmful to health. With concentrates, however, users are only at risk if they swallow the product or bathe in it. It therefore makes no sense to ban catechol from the second developer after lith. Replacing it with a harmless substance is possible, but not economical. The substitute substance is considerably more expensive, so it is basically a useless gimmick. A first attempt also shows a somewhat higher-contrast effect, but this could still be changed.

A dull, hazy January day near the river turned out to be more than I had hoped for - the sun shone through the haze and made everything more interesting.
Taken with ancient Pentax SFXn film camera and smc Pentax-FA 70–200mm F4–5.6 PowerZoom telephoto lens, on a short roll of AgfaPhoto APX 400 film. Developed in Adox FX-39 II, 1+9 dilution at 22°C.
Scanned with Plustek OpticFilm 8100 film scanner, using VueScan.
Diluted FX-39 is a one-shot developer, it can be used only once. But I couldn't throw it away, those 40 ml of developer looked perfectly fine, I just had to try to develop another roll. I even wrote a blog post about reusing one-shot developers, 📖 take a look here!
Sprimocoop est copropriétaire d’un parc éolien de 5 machines.
Concrètement, la société d’exploitation des 5 machines appartient pour 3/4 au développeur (VENTIS), le quart restant se partageant en deux parties égales entre la commune de Sprimont et Sprimocoop.
Les éoliennes sont situées au Nord de l’autoroute E25, de part et d’autre de la nationale 678 qui relie Sprimont à Louveigné.
Les cinq machines sont identiques. Ce sont des Nordex N117/3600 Delta. Chacune a une puissance maximum de 3,6 mégawatts (3.600 kW) et fournit de la puissance tant que le vent a une vitesse comprise entre 10 et 75 km/h.
Chaque mât mesure une centaine de mètres de haut et supporte une nacelle qui contient un alternateur connecté à l’axe d’une énorme hélice à trois pales en composite polyester-fibre de verre d’un diamètre de 116 mètres. La surface du cercle parcouru par chaque hélice est de 10.715 m2, soit un peu plus d’un hectare. Chacun des ces mètres carrés amène une puissance de 336 watts à la machine.
Le sommet des pales montera à environ 150 mètres et descendra à un peu plus de 40 mètres du sol. La vitesse de rotation est de 14,1 tours par minute. On verra donc passer une pale au même endroit toutes les 1,4 secondes.
Sprimocoop co-owns a five-turbine wind farm.
Specifically, the operating company for the five turbines is three-quarters owned by the developer (VENTIS), with the remaining quarter being split equally between the municipality of Sprimont and Sprimocoop.
The wind turbines are located north of the E25 motorway, on either side of the Route Nationale 678, which connects Sprimont to Louveigné.
The five turbines are identical. They are Nordex N117/3600 Delta turbines. Each has a maximum output of 3.6 megawatts (3,600 kW) and provides power as long as the wind speed is between 10 and 75 km/h.
Each tower is about 100 meters high and supports a nacelle containing an alternator connected to the shaft of a huge three-bladed polyester-fiberglass composite propeller with a diameter of 116 meters. The surface area of the circle covered by each propeller is 10,715 m², or just over one hectare. Each of these square meters provides 336 watts of power to the machine.
The blade tips will rise to approximately 150 meters and descend to just over 40 meters from the ground. The rotation speed is 14.1 revolutions per minute. Therefore, a blade will pass over the same spot every 1.4 seconds.

The sodium acetate developer produces the coolest image tone in Kallitype.
One or the other user may well have doubts about this. If the results are not as cool as expected, this is not due to the developer but to the workflow. A really cool tone is only maintained if the print does not come into contact with tap water before fixing. If the print is rinsed with tap water after the developer or the clearing bath, the image tone will be significantly warmer. It is not a question of which shade is perceived as more pleasant, but rather an advantage to know how to control the colourfulness.
For toning before fixing (platinum, palladium, gold), a rinse cycle is advisable in order not to change the property of the toner by introduced acid. For all tonings after fixing, a cooler initial print has the advantage of a higher maximum blackening. This is not decisive for successful toning, but differences in hue and saturation become apparent.

Beginners in the technique of Kallitype often ask which developer they should choose.
Only a comparison of colour and tonal values with identical exposure time. To achieve the same level of blackness with the acetate developer, the exposure time would have to be slightly longer.
This was taken by me with a Voigtländer Bergheil 6x9 cm. camera on Fomapan 100 film.
