A/B testing latest refinements (more depth, better details in clouds/highlights and contrast in mid tones). First image is the new version. Next stop double size, 14x10"...

Scan of a 7x5" kallitype print of a moody alpine landscape. A small hiking path leading into the background at the feet of talus fields and past a small mountain lake. Big dark clouds moving through the layers of rock towers
Scan of an earlier print of the same image with less contrast and detail, esp. in the clouds.

Had to prepare new silver nitrate solution last night and made a new test print of a moody moment from one my fave hikes in the Dolomites...
(The highlights needs a little more refinement)

Two small new prints from this afternoon, this time not Kallitype but contact printing on silver chloride FB paper, developed with Adox MCC. The increase in depth and detail is just wonderful and the feel of the final results an instant throwback to my early darkroom adventures ~40 years ago... 😍
The pictures are of two of my favorite places in recent years. Larger prints will be available for purchase in September.

Phone capture of two small B&W prints with black border, depicting beautiful alpine mountain landscapes. The top image shows a path in a high alpine valley leading into the distance past a small lake, surrounded by steep rock faces. Moody dark clouds forming. The bottom image shows a large boulder within a group of swiss pines (also growing on top) in a talus field. Further in the distance the glaciated peaks of the Bernina range in bright sunshine.

It's packaging time... archival parchment pouches, book binder's cardboard, linen tape, acid-free stickers.
(This is a print made for @…. For my own images, you'd also get a certificate of authenticity included...)
