New 10x8" silver gelatin print. This one took a lot of refining, back and forth and test strips to achieve the right balance between brightness, contrast (esp. in the brighter parts of the clouds) and smooth mid-tone transitions. So even though this is a contact print from a digital negative, this was the first time in ages (i.e. decades) that I used some physical dodging to soften the horizon and emphasize the haze in the distance a tiny bit more...

A Conjuring Of Clouds

Yesterday's evening walk... It's been a great week for cloud spotting, but with dozens of storm cells & hail moving through the area all week...

(Also thinking about the connotation to wildfires raging in Canada... 😢)

I captured the most magic moment/stage of Kallitype development as 4x slow-motion, the moment when you pour developer over the exposed image and you can see it for the very first time...

https://makertube.net/w/9i7i9APGyJk1Ajbp2zmY7U

Most of the image becomes visible immediately, but details are only completely there after around 30-60 seconds. The rest of the 45-50 minute development process is mostly to refine contrast, tones and making the print resistant to aging and to achieve archival stability, e.g. via multi-stage clearing to dissolve and remove any obsolete iron, toning via salts of precious metals or other compounds, fixing and several rounds of rinsing...

(The print shown in the video is still drying and I will share a picture of it tomorrow)

Making Of A Kallitype (Part 1)

I recorded and edited a short 8-10x timelapse recording of the first stages of my Kallitype development process. Starting with mixing the photo emulsion, brush coating the paper, contact printing (UV exposure), heating developer and then showing the first two stages of actual development & clearing. Final result shown at the end, a 15x11" framed print (also posted here recently)...

(Please let me know if you'd like to see more like this... Personally, I find it quite ASMR-capable, even at this high speed, but even more so at real time. The whole process is quite therapeutic in these times!)

Some of you might know that image of Crodon di San Candido already (posted it a few times in the past), but last night I finally made a 15x11 inch Kallitype print of it (on Hahnemühle Platinum Rag, 100% cotton, 300gsm paper). Available as limited edition soon.

Since these prints are handmade (each taking over an hour to develop & process), the tone of each individual print always slightly varies. Therefore, I will be offering an option to indicate your preference for warmer or cooler tones. For example, if you choose "warm" for an order, I would then select the "warmest" (neutral/brownish) print of the edition still available... first come basis...
