I've been thinking of the Ilford Warmtone for Lith. Tim Rudman talks of the ivory Lith outcome, and I must say, I like it. I saw it as an example in his book and this is a stunning example. Excellent image Thomas. I believe infectious development never quite takes off with Ilford Warmtone, right? Great image. K

Thomas: both are great, but I think that I prefer this one. I think that the subtlety of this version suits the subject better.

Thanks to all of you! I thin I like this one the best too. With a paper like Ilford MGIV warmtone, that normally tones like a madman, after the lith printing - it seems even more receptive. Have fun, try it out. I'm sure everybody has some Ilford warmtone lying around.

Both are great images Thomas, but this one is my favorite. I had no idea Ilford WT did this in lith, I thought it went green. Great toning as well. Did you bleach these prints to get these better lith results?

It's straight selenium at 1:4 dilution, warmed up to about 80*F. The matte paper turns green with long exposures, the glossy is a bit less pronounced that way, but still a bit green.
Bleaching isn't necessary, but is another interesting option that I haven't tried yet.
