Merits and Demerits of Salted vs. VDB
To the brown folk, I've made my first VDB prints today. I've had a few sessions with salted prints, with which I was fairly happy. The VDB prints were, to my eye, not remarkably different (same paper, same exposure conditions: the Sun), although I did lose a couple when following a prescribed selenium toning step (fade to white!) So, re the header, do experienced practioners of these techniques find greater merits in one or the other? Do the contrast ranges of the negative favour one or the other?
