RE: Lumin prints tests

Marek, I did mean columns. sorry if it's confusing, but those top two
(from right) are not fixed yet... I'm keeping them in dark storage for
an indefinite time period. Column one show the effect of before and
after plain hypo fixing.

what gold toner formula are you using?

Darryl,
I jumped into it with gold toning right away. What an assortment of
oranges and lavenders. It is so mucgh easier to preserve the original
tones that way. I also have an almost neutral gray print form goldd
toning.
Are two teo prints in the top right corner fixed? Did you mean rows or
columns?
Sun is out again, more exposeures. I have coated a piece of paper with
NaSCN solution. It is outside now.
Marek, Houston
