Certainly I am not making anything difficult or mystical about this. I
am just trying to quantify those plateaus or ranges that produce great
results. And since my interest in the Zia (Lithium) is to make a great
neutral color Pt/Pd print I channel my efforts this direction. I am in
no way considering abandoning the traditional formulas; these have
provided me with excellent results and will continue to do so.
It is unfortunate that I had mistakenly used too much chemistry
initially, but this has demonstrated there is a upper limit to quality
and amount of chemistry.
