Andy,
 
I started fooling around with these lumen prints and made a bunch of
exposure but just put them in a box for now. (I haven't tried to develop or
fix them yet. I'm still reading over all the alt. list info). Did you
develop your images or just fix and wash them? Also, are the scans on your
blog of the original sun prints without development and fixing? Anyway, I
like the whole idea. It makes for cool chemical and digital images to play
around with. I'll be watching for your completed image posting.

I am almost done with creating a web gallery of all my lumen prints that I
have made (and feel are web site worthy). I hope to have it completed this
weekend, which I will post when I do get it completed, but until then, there
are some examples I have posted on my blog, found at

Sodium sulfide test would tell. But the test is destructive, so be
sure to make reasonable test samples and allow good safety factor.
