Like it, minus the sticker, it bugs me haha. What's KBr? and how does it reduce fog? I JUST developed more of my old GAF stash, and settled on a 1:25 development of HC-110 with better results than the previous 1:31 attempt, strange how that could make such a difference. Please educated me on the KBr thanks!
 
Thanks for looking, KBr is Potassium Bromide. It acts as a restrainer... ususally as an additive for paper developers. (though as I recall, when I added it to Caffenol once, it just held everything back) It's dirt-cheap and lasts forever.
 
Thanks, I need to educate myself more, so much to know, so littlet time to shoot!
 
impressive image ! really catches your eye and is thought provoking
