For all you salt print aficionados:
1. Is ossein gelatin better in any way than Knox?
2. Do those of you who do this process use a 5% or 10% fixing bath? One or
two baths?
3. Do you overexpose it 2 stops to account for lightening in the
fixing/washing steps, or more (this equals 4 steps on a Stouffer's,
correct)?
4. Does a gelatin/salt coating produce warmer or colder tones? Reilly says
warmer/redder but it seems other sources say colder.
5. Anyone use a regular Edwards light box with salt? Is it too slow?
6. Anyone try printing toward the sun with tissue paper diffusion to
increase contrast? Why technically does the sun produce the lowest
contrast--caillier effect?
7. What's your favorite paper?
Whew! I think that about does it for the moment.
