If this is warming up for WPPD, then I can't wait to see what your final entry will be. Beautiful image. The surface of the water looks like a frozen lake. I like it, also the toning.

I like this very much, and appreciate the toning. Do you tone lightly with a brief, dilute bleach, or the full sepia treatment bleaching until the image disappears then using the thiocarbamide to restore the full tonality? I ask because this looks warmly brown and not overly sepia. May also be a function of the MGWT?

Thanks everyone. Jovo, my usual is 30-60 sec in 1/2 strength bleach. Then the thiocarbamide. By varying the ratio of A to B, different tones from yellow-brown to purple-brown are possible. A dunk in Selinium after, can push the tones further, depending on strength and time. I rarely consider a print finished these days until I've toned it. Sometimes I wreak a good print by pushing the toning too far.

Thanks, Sly. (Pushing things too far ALWAYS results in a wreck! LOL )
