Hand Colouring

Hand Colouring

The photo was made using a 90mm f/2.8 lens on a Pentax 67 camera. Film was 400, forget if it was Fuji or Kodak. Printed on Foma 123 velvet stipple type paper. This print was developed in Dektol and was made as a control print for lith developing. You find the correct print time for the paper in Dektol then open the enlarger lens up 3 stops at the same time for the print that goes in the lith developer. Later I decided to hand colour the straight print. The colouring was done with the traditional Marshall’s Photo Oils. I like them because they have nice colours, are easy to apply and make corrections if necessary.

I think this is fabulous. It reminds me of coloured plates in old books. Beautifully subtle.
