The other day I was making photograms ( silver). My stop bath and fixer were
shot, yet I had a few sheets of paper left. So I exposed the last few and
painted on the developer. In so doing, I left potions of the paper
undeveloped (untouched by developer). I then placed the print in stop bath
and fixer (both of which, as I said, were shot). After doing so, however, I
noticed that the undeveloped portion of the print had turned a wonderful
DARK yellow.
Was it the exhausted stop or fixer that turned the print yellow?
Since I liked the prints, I re-freshed the fixer and re-fixed them. Will
this save the print from the fate of prints that are ill fixed?
If not, I would like to dye the print the dark yellow color I got (with the
"stain" from the stop/fixer). Can anybody recommend some process that might
let me archive this color?
Thanks,
Dean
