OK one more today:
Re: lith printing.
Using Fotospeed Lith developer at 60ml A and 60ml B in 1
liter of water dilution, the Arista.edu paper gives
GOLFBALL grain that is really incredible. At least, I
love it. I have a student doing these vacant night time
scenes of industrial walls sort of with a single light
shining, snow on the ground, and the grain is really quite
effective to set a mood. I have not seen this kind of
grain on a paper otherwise. I find Ilford Multigrade IV
to be blah and not very good, Bergger paper is fine
grained and caramel toned and pretty darn good. Kentmere
Fineprint is good....pinky. That's all...
