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...)

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)

Preparing the digital negative & letting it dry before tonight's printing session...
(Already inverted the photo to better see the inverted image...)
