Don't have too much fun with the 'weed', Erik!

It's a fabulous print. I have never seen tones like this from Slavich. What variety? What development time did you see?

This is the first lith print on Slavich that I've seen that I like. Love the brown tones.

Thomas, I'll save the weed for saturday night The tone is strictly from selenium 1+9 is what I used for 5 or so minutes. LD 20 15+15=1000 +1000 old brown. I like the paper as it is pretty fast in the soup, I'm guessing under 7 minutes before I pulled it. Thanks for the response. erik

thanks Travis, It is my first try with the Slavich papers, it becomes more interesting to me after toning. there really was no color before toning. erik

a beautiful print erik! you gave us the developing info but i am interested in what variety of slavich this is. i have used slavich unibrom 160 #4 and have never gotten this sort of result, even after selenium toning..

Thanks Marianne, It is the 160 #4 that I used. Interesting you should reply as it was after looking at some of your recent uploads that I decided to try a pack of the Slavich. Thanks erik

well erik, you certainly got different result than i ever did...its wonderful! and you are another person who does not get the pesky emulsion lines...maybe i just get the weird packs of paper sent to michigan! i look forward to seeing more!

Marianne, I've got those lines also most notable in skies from what I have noticed. I thought it was my being lazy and developing 2 sheets at once and it was from my trays erik
