Woo-hoo!
I made my first Argyrotype last night! It's awful, but who cares, I made
an image! It was my first hand coated print. I used a glass rod - it
came out awfully streaky. Either too little solution was used or the
Crane's platinotype was too absorbent - the area at the beginning of the
stroke seems "denser" than the other end of the print. And it's
terribly flat - I'll have to add another gram of sulfamic acid I fear.
This same negative looked good as a POP print.
So thanks to everyone on the list, especially Michael Healy and Darryl
Baird, for their encouragement and advice.
