From roaming around northern Michgan at one of Bill Schwab's annual Photostock events. He has sadly passed away, and I'm remembering how he inspired me to go out with a camera and try to make beautiful things with it, and how grateful I am to have received that gift from him.

From roaming around northern Michgan at one of Bill Schwab's annual Photostock events. He has sadly, suddenly, and untimely passed away, and I'm remembering how he inspired me to go out with a camera and try to make beautiful things with it, and how grateful I am to have received that gift from him. He inspired and affected so many people, in positive ways, and in some small way I'd like to celebrate it.

After this developer combination, the mid-tones also increase significantly in density when toned with selenium!

For a combined toning with selenium and iron blue toner, the print must be lighter overall.

MT1 Selenium for the shadows 1+6 1:30 minutes, followed by a watering of at least 20 minutes.

MT7 Iron blue toner 5+5+10+5+500 45 seconds, also the already selenated shadows become cyan.

Lead acetate 2.5% 30 seconds shifts the colour towards blue, the selenium toning in the shades becomes visible again.

Nach dieser Entwicklerkombination legen auch die Mitteltöne deutlich an Dichte zu, wenn mit Selen getont wird!

Für eine kombinierte Tonung mit Selen und Eisenblautoner muß der Print insgesamt heller sein.

MT1 Selen für die Schatten 1+6 1:30 Minuten, gefolgt von einer Wasserung von mindestens 20 Minuten.

MT7 Eisenblautoner 5+5+10+5+500 45 Sekunden, auch die schon selenierten Schatten werden blaugrün.

Bleiacetat 2,5% 30 Sekunden verschiebt die Farbe Richtung Blau, die Selentonung in den Schatten wird wieder erkennbar.

I appreciate the possibilities of two-tray development with the Polychrome kit. What I have not tried so far is toning such prints with cobalt/iron toner. What I wanted to achieve here were reddish trunks against bluish snow.

Paper Foma Retrobrom SP152 semi-matt.

1st developer SE5 Lith A+B+D+water 40+40+10+900ml 6,5 mins,

2nd developer after a short rinse Siena (Glycin) 30 ml + NH4Cl 10 ml + water 700 ml (no carbonate) 1 min.

The relatively soft gelatine of this paper was made more resistant by hardening for the subsequent tonings for safety reasons.

1st toner MT1 Selenium 1+10 only 1 min, just to affect the deep shadows.

2nd toner Cobalt, Parts 1 - 4 20+15+10+8ml water to 500ml 3 mins,

3rd toner MT7 Iron Blue, parts 1 - 4 4+2+4+3ml to 500ml water 2 mins, followed by Lead acetate toner 2 mins.

I so look forward to Sliders Sundays. HSS everyone!

Printed onto Fomatone 131.

SE6 Blue 1+10 3 minutes.

For the last batches of Fomatone, I recommend hardening the gelatine before Selenium toning.

Hardener 1+5 1 minute after fixing (or instead the usual stop bath) washing time at least 7-10 minutes to remove the acid of the hardener.

Das im SE6 Blue entwickelte Silberbild setzt dem Selentoner einen stärkeren Widerstand entgegen, es dauert etwas länger, bis die Schatten einen rötlichen Farbton annehmen. Die Lichter werden noch später angegriffen als üblicherweise, was genutzt werden kann wenn eine Zweifarbigkeit erwünscht ist. Voraussetzung für einen Farbsplitt zwischen Schatten und Lichtern (ohne viel Aufwand) ist die Verwendung eines Warmtonpapiers (wie Forte oder Fomatone).

Mit Bromsilberpapieren sind ähnliche Ergebnisse nur mit einem erheblich höheren Aufwand möglich (tonen - bleichen - rückentwickeln).

Wie beim vorherigen Bild ist ein fetter Toner (MT1 1+10) vorteilhaft, denn es soll ja einen relativ schnellen Farbumschlag in den Schatten geben. Während der ersten Minute scheint relativ wenig zu passieren, der kritische Punkt wird nach zwei bis zweieinhalb Minuten erreicht. Bevor auch die Mitteltöne rötlich werden, muss die Tonung rasch unterbrochen werden.

The silver image developed in SE6 Blue offers greater resistance to selenium toner, so it takes a little longer for the shadows to take on a reddish hue. The highlights are affected even later than usual, which can be used to advantage if a two-tone effect is desired. The prerequisite for colour separation between shadows and highlights (without much effort) is the use of warmtone papers (such as Forte or Fomatone).

With bromide silver papers, similar results are only possible with considerably more effort (toning – bleaching – re-developing).

As with the previous image, a rich toner (MT1 1+10) is advantageous, as the aim is to achieve a relatively rapid colour change in the shadows. During the first minute, relatively little seems to happen, but the critical point is reached after two to two and a half minutes. Before the mid-tones also turn reddish, the toning must be stopped quickly.

From my first test film with the Seagull 4A TLR.

I used this negative to try out a few new-to-me papers. None of them responded satisfactory so I ended up going with Fomaspeed again because I know what it looks like ;)

I recently ordered some new chemistry I'm excited to try out, I just thought that this negative wasn't so well suited for that. Matter of fact, I think this negative might work really well as a "boring regular" print on contrasty paper. I might have a try at that too.

Tried some Fomaspeed Variant 313 with lith developer yesterday evening. The results really excited me: a nice slight sepia tone, lots of heavy grain and strong blacks. The paper has a nice finish too. It's fairly cheap and looks great in regular developer as well. Over all, very happy with it!
