Re: solarplate wedgies



Hey Jon,

Go look at my blog.  All the way down at the bottom of the page there
are images of a step wedge showing the speckles.  They aren't large
areas of tonal difference... they're small "squiggles" of lighter tone
that show up mostly in the mid to lights.  I think the darker tones
just mask them though, because those areas are holding more ink, and
it gets smeared around on the tops of the light spots and doesn't get
wiped off.

Can you post a scan of the irregularities?

Thanks,
