I like this and enjoyed looking at your gallery - also did a search on Potassium Oxalate which I hadn't come across, interesting.
Thanks

Excellent image..the tone suits it perfectly
 
Seems a little yellow for arches platine. did you clear it in the clearing baths long enough? The image is outstanding so much going on. you may want to try pryrocat with your tri-x if you are going to do pl/pt. you will get better tones. I use Pot Ox. Hot or cold it does a great job.
 
Thanks to all for the nice comments!
Michael9793: I also noticed the yellow tinge. It is not in the print. My prints go through three separate clearing baths of five minutes each and they are changed frequently (sodium sulfite and EDTA). My scanner, however, is the same one that came over with Columbus. Thanks for the tip on pyrocat. I am not familiar with this developer but now plan to do some research. I have been experimenting with PMK pyro and so far like the results. Again, thanks for the tip!
