Quality control is carried out after each production of ferric oxalate. I do not rely on the test for residual iron II salt, only the result after printing is really relevant.
Because different developers have their own characteristics in terms of maximum blackening, colour and susceptibility to fogging, I allow myself the pleasure of playing with developers.

The most colourful developer I know for Kallitype is a mixture of Rochelle salt and Sodium tungstate. I don't use it very often because in comparison to other developers it requires an overexposure of about 1/2 stop. In the clearing bath and in the fixer, the print brightens up considerably.

Kallitype onto Hahnemühle Platinum Rag.
For one litre Maroon" developer start with 950ml of demineralised water. Add 37g Rochelle salt Kalium-Natriumtartrat- Tetrahydrat / Potassium sodium tartrate), 55g Natriumwolframat (Sodium tungstate) and 3g Tartaric acid (Weinsäure). A little dichromate can be added as an anti-fogging agent and to increase the contrast. I myself use sodium dichromate as a 50% solution and add 2-8 drops to the developer, but here in Europe it has become difficult for end users to obtain chromates.

Excerpt from www.cambridge.ca/en/learn-about/resources/Dickson-Hill-HC...:
Dickson Hill is one of the most unique communities in the City of Cambridge.
Dickson Hill is named for the Honourable William Dickson, a prominent Galt settler who arrived to the area in 1816. Dickson is credited with founding the Village of Galt due to his considerable land holdings and was responsible for much of the commercial development on the west bank of the Grand River.
His son, William Dickson Jr., acquired most of the lands that currently make up the residential area of Dickson Hill. His own residence, located at 16 Byng Avenue was constructed in 1832. The development of the residential component occurred over several decades and by a series of developers. Florence Dickson, niece to William Dickson Jr., and his heir, controlled the development of this area until the 1890’s.
Dickson Hill features an extremely high concentration of significant buildings of various types: residential, institutional, commercial and manufacturing. In addition to the buildings, key elements that define the character of Dickson Hill are:
• Tree-lined streets;
• Distinctive globe street lights; and
• Prominent urban public spaces and landscape features.

“What is the good of your stars and trees, your sunrise and the wind, if they do not enter into our daily lives?”
E. M. Forster
“We can only appreciate the miracle of a sunrise if we have waited in the darkness” -Unknown
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.

I don't know when this office block was built (1970s?) but I assume it's cheaper to knock it down rather than refurbish fit for modern needs. The developers are planning to replace it with housing.
Reloaded from my old stream.
Not HDR. ;)
One of my more successful efforts with Silkypix Developer Studio, IMHO.
