if you want color and deep blacks, but more (lith-atypical) midtones, fill up the curve with a highly diluted standard developer
1) lith develper (strong) and relatively little overexposure, because of the faster second developer SE5: A+B+water+D (or 10% KBr) = 40+40+600+40(important!) 4min
2) omega 1+100 2min and without wash
3) meritol (SE30) 1+70 1min
I don't usually respond much to lith prints, but for some reason I really like this one. It's very mysterious; windswept and bleak, and somehow today that just seems very attractive. Thanks for posting it!
I have been back and forth with this one because I wasn't sure why it has such impact. I think the remarkable 3D affect is at play here. Very nice indeed..
