Phone photo of a handmade 6x4" high contrast kallitype print of a rock tower in the Dolomites with epic cumulus clouds in the background.

@thereisnocat After some back and forth, I've settled on 6-7 mins in 18% sodium acetate (+ ~1% tartaric acid) for the past 6 weeks or so. I usually also add one or two drops of 5% ammonium dichromate to the emulsion to raise contrast. All prints are toned in a very weak 1:100 Se toner, just […]

Phone picture of a 8x10" sheet of paper with a smaller kallitype print of a narrow path leading to a high alpine mountain pass in front of a sharp ridge leading up to a large mountain peak. Intense bright light from the other side of the pass is creating a high contrast.
