[alt-photo] Re: Toning Platinum/Palladium Prints

[Eric Neilsen]

Chris, I prefer to achieve desired color with coating mixture and
developers. I had done some toning with platinum to intensify the image and
a little gold on several occasions, but for the most part doing it with
coating solutions, humidity of paper at time of exposure and developer is my
path.

I think Chris James discusses an artist toning (cooling) the image with lead
oxalate (in the sensitizer, I believe). Then there is uranium....
