>>  Bob, This is an example of opaque yellow, cadmium yellow used on the highlighs. I was not very happy with transparent yellows and decided to use a thin layer of opaque yellow on top (as a last layer). It is amazing how it opened the colour. This is a bad picture, my big camera is out of service, but it illustrates the point. The cad yellow was applied locally and exposed through a B negative. You could do something like this and exposed through positive as you would want this opaque layer to affect highlights only. As somebody suggested to use white in this scenario, but you can be even more creative. Here is the link to my picture https://plus.google.com/photos/105732508998271877151/albums/5882305049320410433 I am using this cadmium yellow on a couple more prints as we speak.
